Fortune Sound Club is a nightclub and concert room at 147 East Pender Street in Chinatown, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The venue operates a multi-room sound system and hosts DJ nights alongside touring acts, with a specialty in live electronic and hip-hop shows. It is one of the city's most established clubs for electronic music and draws a crowd that follows international DJs, local residents and genre-specific events, making it a reference point for Vancouver's nightlife outside the Granville Street strip.

The crowd is adult, with a legal drinking age of 19 in British Columbia, and tends to be in the twenties and thirties, with the mix changing by event. There is no single dress code, but most visitors dress in stylish casual clothing, and sportswear or very casual attire may be treated differently at the door depending on the night. Photo identification is expected. The atmosphere is energetic and dancefloor-focused, with the sound system and lighting central to the experience, and the busiest hours are typically late in the evening and into the early morning.

Music depends on the event. Programming is mostly electronic, with house, techno, bass and other dance styles, plus hip-hop shows and touring artists. Drinks are served from the bars, including beer, spirits and mixed drinks; typical club pricing applies, with exact costs varying by event. Table service or bottle service may be offered for some nights, and visitors interested in that option should ask the venue directly.

Opening hours follow the event calendar rather than a fixed schedule: doors typically open between 7pm and 9pm on event nights, and the club may be closed on nights with no booking. Cover varies by event, with tickets typically CAD $15-50 (US $11-35) per event. Advance tickets are often cheaper and avoid a sold-out door. Because Chinatown streets can be quiet late at night, visitors often use taxis or ride-hailing services for the trip home.
