Black Market Manila is a trendy club that caters mostly to a cool crowd looking for something beyond DJs playing top 40 pop hits. A warehouse-style club with an industrial concept that plays edgy underground music, the place sees a good mix of locals, expats, and tourists all looking to have a good time. Music depends on the night, but you might hear anything from drum & bass to dubstep to hip hop.

It's certainly a world-class club so everyone's stylish, but you're also welcome to come in sneakers and a T-shirt. They have a casual dress code, but flip-flops and singlets will be out of place. If you don't want any trouble getting in, make sure you're dressed appropriately.
