-- By Julia Koprak Translated by Ann Li

Since opening in September 2003, Luxy has become a staple on every partier's "to go" list. With 1,000 pings, it is Taipei's second largest club, and a venue that simply cannot be avoided. The name blends "luxury" with "sexy" and this rings true, from the bikini-clad Luxy Girls grinding on stage to the top-shelf bottles emerging from carefully hidden VIP rooms.
You'll start to bop your head to the jams pumped into the elevator and, by the time you reach the massive, high-ceiling, hip hop-blasting Galleria room, you'll be raring to go. If you're looking for house, head to the white and redtinted Lotus Room. Here you'll find a less crowded bar, a more intimate feel and, sometimes, some wicked break-dancing. For a more laid-back scene, check out the second-floor Cigar Room, which has great views of the rooms below.
Working with the masterminds from The Loop production company, Luxy features several resident DJs and hosts a world-famous DJ each month for a special show. Past artists include Paul Van Dyk, Deep Dish, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Grandmaster Flash, and DJ Sasha. Anyone who attended one of these shows will insist that it was an event to remember.
Luxy is open from Wednesday to Saturday and the cover charge ranges from NT$350 to NT$800 including one drink (the price rises after 11 and during exclusive performances). Wednesday night is the infamous Ladies' Night, hosted by Liquid Lifestyle Productions, who keep it real with drink specials and Luxy Dollar giveaways. Thursday night is Student's Night, featuring an all-night Happy Hour Buy-1-Get-1-Free. Table reservations are quite popular, and require a NT$1,000 minimum per person.
Luxy keeps it fresh by always throwing in something new. From beer funnels on the bar to dance competitions to their signature fire-blowing bar show, they'll definitely keep you entertained. At this longtime hotspot, you're always guaranteed a good time.
