Underground Zürich West club on Geroldstrasse with a strong sound system, well known for long techno and house nights that run into the morning.
Hive occupies the former industrial premises at Geroldstrasse 5 in Zürich West, a short walk from Hardbrücke station, and is one of the city's best-known electronic music clubs. The room is built around a powerful sound system and stripped-back industrial decor, with long nights of techno, house, and related genres that run well past dawn. According to listings, the club opens on Thursday from 11PM to 4AM, on Friday from 11PM to 7AM, and on Sunday from 11PM to 9AM, though the programme changes, so the club's own calendar is the definitive source. The crowd is mostly 20s and 30s and international, with a serious clubbing focus, and door policy can be selective, so arriving in smart-casual black clothing and a relaxed attitude helps. Entry costs vary by event and typically range from CHF 20 to 35 (approx $25-44), and drinks cost around CHF 10-16 (approx $13-20); cards are accepted, but carrying some CHF cash is useful for cloakrooms. ID is required, and the minimum age is 18, sometimes higher. The club is close to Frau Gerolds Garten and the Viadukt, so many visitors start the evening there and walk over after midnight. Trams and night buses serve Hardbrücke, and the S-Bahn night network offers late returns on weekends. Contact is via info@hiveclub.ch or +41 44 271 12 10.
