I wanna go to Guvernment what do I need to know?

I will probably be heading up to Toronto in february to meet some friends, and I've always wanted to check out The Guvernment.

What do I need to know about the club?

Dress code?
How are the lines to get in?
Drink prices?

Thats all for now. Thanks for your help.

well in terms of drinks...it's fucking expensive was it 12 bucks or 6 bucks for a shot of goldschlager? i dunno but something like that.

and if you are going to hit a big event in guvernment, then get ready to get squished, it can get crowded.

dress code? well it varies, but it helps calling them up and making sure.

but don't let the negative comments discourage you, the music is great, decent lighting, amazing sound system.

have fun.

Why are you people so negative?

* Music - if it's regular night progressive house with a bit of trance.
* Drinks - pretty expensive, but cheap for american standards. I paid 13CAD for a Rev and a Budweiser last saturday. Don't think it's TOO
much.
* Cover - cheap. 10CAD before 12, 15 after.
* Sound - Awesome
* Lighting - Awesome
* Women - very good looking
* Line-ups. Depends what time you get in. Usually I come in around 11:30, and don't stand in line more than 20 minutes.

The only problem is that it's very very packed and hot inside.

it is a shame to hear that the club is always overcrowded for a nice club like that the promoters/owners should do something about that but i guess it is all about the money these days...

yeah the crowdness is the killer for me, like it is a great club, just it is so packed usually. But you are right, it is all about the money.

LOL
I don't understand. What else should it be about? Guvernment a business, and a good one. Why should Guv change anything if there is a demand for their business.. Besides, if it wasn't about money, you wouldn't see the likes of Tiesto, Armin, Ferry or others at Guvernment.

Actually the Guverenment pays Durafei good money to speak nice stuff about them .

here is what your really going to expect at the Guv:

* Music - Tony Monaco jams the place all night long!
* Drinks - pretty expensive, your looking at two arms and a leg for drinks.
* Cover - yep, definitely take cover when some of those guns go off.
* Sound - very loud, since a lot of guns go off.
* Lighting - hey, those guns going off produce a lot light. so its all good.
* Women - What Women?
* Line-ups. Be there at like 6 in the morning, that way you'll ensure a spot. Anytime past 9pm, stand next to a person, unless you don't mind drive by shootings.

Ps. Bring two guns just in case.

Ha Ha? No thats when it was called RPM.


The Guv is one of the best clubs around. Definetly the best in Toronto. That is, as a venue.

The crowd can be a bit "drugged" out/gino/cracked out asian... and yes for special events they pack the place and it gets way too hot.

But good times can be had there the music is usually pretty good.

Dress Code - Anything you want. If ya wanna dress up there are lots of ppl dressed to the nines. Plus you can go to The Drink as well which is VIP 21 and over.

The Line up isn't too bad if its a regular night and depending on the time. 11-11:30 is a good time to aim for.

Drinks are a bit pricey. 5 bucks for a beer. 6.50 for a mixed drink. 7.50 for a rev.

Lots of hot friendy women but also lots of hot unfriendly women.
