The city that never sleeps backs up its reputation - a 24-hour subway, a staggering range of clubs, lounges and late bars, and a Brooklyn warehouse scene that rivals any in the world. Manhattan's Lower East Side and the Brooklyn neighbourhoods carry most of the after-dark weight.

The party scene

The Brooklyn warehouse scene (Brooklyn Mirage, House of Yes, the Bushwick spaces) is the current centre of gravity; Manhattan's Lower East Side and Meatpacking hold the bars and clubs; Williamsburg bridges the two. The 24-hour infrastructure means the night genuinely doesn't have to end.

When to go

Year-round. Summer brings rooftop and warehouse-yard events; New Year and the autumn season are peaks.
