Zouk Tokyo Ranks #51 Globally and #1 in Japan
in DJ Mag Top 100 Clubs 2026

From Ginza to the World — A Historic Achievement Just Two Years After Opening

Granbell Hotel Co., Ltd. (headquartered in Chuo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kiyoshi Yasuno) operates Zouk Tokyo, which has been ranked #51 globally and #1 among Japanese clubs as a NEW ENTRY in the 2026 edition of “DJ Mag Top 100 Clubs,” the prestigious annual ranking compiled by UK music magazine DJ Magazine. Zouk Tokyo opened in October 2023 across the B2 and B3 floors of the Granbell Square complex in Ginza, Tokyo. To debut in this globally recognized ranking just two years after opening — and to lead all Japanese entries — represents a historic milestone, signaling that Tokyo’s nightlife has reached world-class standards.

DJ Mag’s official feature notes that Zouk Tokyo’s bookings “shine a light on Japanese DJs as well as international headliners,” highlighting the venue’s commitment to balancing local and global talent. Featured artists in the official write-up include Kaskade, Miss Monique, Gorgon City, YOUNA, and WUKONG.
