KHIDI

Top choice in Tbilisi


Meaning 'the Bridge' in Georgian, KHIDI is quite literally built into the hillside under one of the main bridges across the Mtkvari, and is an extraordinary concrete bunker space ideal for housing one of Tbilisi's best clubs. The main floor plays techno, while the smaller dance floor is more varied in its musical direction, with dance, ambient, electro and experimental nights.

You'll need to register online with a Facebook URL and your passport number to get approval to enter, but it's well worth the hassle. The monthly queer party, Kiki (register for this at www.khidi.ge/kiki), is massively popular, while at other times the space holds art exhibits, dance and other artistic performances and workshops. This is one of Tbilisi's most progressive and interesting spaces and a vital stop for anyone exploring the local club scene.
