After clubbing in Hong Kong for the last 13 years I have really discovered that the expats who always used to dominate the clubbing scene and who were the ones who first introduced it to Hong Kong have started to disappear. Only when a more commercial branded event happens does the true clubbing expat resurface and have a great time on the dance floor.

There seems to have been a draw over the years for expats to more towards LKF and Wanchai and dance on small bar dance floors and have some illusion in their mind that they are in a club when they are not. Space has always been an issue and small bars that provide an area to dance have cashed in and spread like wild fire. Hoepfully soon a super club in Central will surface and remind people what clubbing is all about and that you don't have to be jammed between a sofa and the bar to dance.

I am not saying that just by having people from Hong Kong the party is not fun, I would just like to see more of an International crowd having a great time together as don't forget there are over a hundred nationalities in Hong Kong!

I think it is time for HKClubbing to go on a bit of a mission to get more expats into the parties, instead of just when names such as Fat Boy Slim & Paul Oakenfold come to town. Or I could just setup my own superclub but now I am just dreaming...

Let us know what you think in the forums !
