Take a look at our top picks for Easter Clubbing, 2010
There are many traditions surrounding Easter, and clubbing is one of them. It might be down to some corrupted folk memory of the ecstatic fertility rites practiced by our ancestors, or perhaps an instinctive animal joy at the passing of the colder months. On the other hand, er, maybe not. Maybe it's just because of all the bank holidays.
Some people want the companionship of 4000 sweaty bodies at times like this, and others are looking for a bit more of a niche. Have a look below: in our top Easter picks we've got all sorts covered.
