iN

Baku


Already on its fifth venue in as many years, iN is Baku's original rave-style club, currently operating from a converted factory in a rather obscure corner of the city's northwestern suburbs.

Likely to move again. Even when you've found it, there's a tangle of style rules that you'll need to study to get you past the very particular 'face control' (bouncers).
