From Quilox to Zaza, here is the ultimate guide to the hottest spots in Lagos where the celebrities party and the vibes never end this Detty December.

The Ultimate Detty December Guide

Lagos comes alive in December. If you're not outside, you're nowhere. The energy, the "Dorime", the fashion—it's unparalleled. But with so many spots popping up in Lekki and VI, where should you actually spend your millions (or your small change)?

We've curated the authoritative list of the Top 10 Nightclubs in Lagos for Detty December 2025.

1. Quilox (Victoria Island) The King of Nightlife. Even in 2025, Shina Peller's establishment remains the gold standard. If you want to see Wizkid or Burna Boy casually dropping $50k on Azul, this is the place. Vibe: Luxury, High Energy. Entry: Strict. Reservation mandatory.

2. Zaza Lagos (Victoria Island) Global standard. Zaza brings that high-end dining-turned-club experience. The lighting is immaculate for your Instagram stories. Best Night: Wednesday & Friday.

3. W Bar (Ikoyi) Waterfront vibes. It's breezy, it's open-air, and it's full of "tech bros" and "baddies". The music policy here leans heavily towards Amapiano and the latest Afrobeats chart-toppers.

4. Bayrock (Lekki) The new kid on the block that took 2025 by storm. It's gritty but polished. The sound system is arguably the best in Lekki Phase 1.

5. Moist Beach Club (Oniru) For those who prefer their party with sand between their toes. Moist is perfect for Sunday evenings that turn into Monday mornings.

6. Vaniti (Victoria Island) Architecturally stunning. The mirror ceilings and LED screens make it a visual trip.

7. Obi's House (Everywhere) Okay, it's not a "club" in the traditional sense, but the Monday night movement is bigger than most clubs. It's the culture.

8. Cubana (Ikeja/VI) Obi Cubana's empire is still strong. If you want raw, unadulterated spending and excitement, the Grind is where it happens.

9. Hot Box (Lekki) Intimate, sweaty, and pure vibes. This is for the real dancers, not just the poseurs.

10. LiVE Lounge Great live band sessions that transition into a club night. Perfect for a slightly more mature crowd before 12 AM.
