About WARP SHINJUKU

WARP SHINJUKU is a nightclub in the basement of the Daini Toa Kaikan building in Kabukicho, Shinjuku, a short distance from Shinjuku Station. It opened on 26 October 2018 with the concept of Tokyo 100 years in the future, a space designed like the inside of a large spaceship. The club drew about 25,000 guests in its first month, and VINAI played its first New Year countdown.

WARP has four floors. The Universe Floor is the main room for up to 600 people, lit by a large three-tier circular truss called the Solar System. Bar Meteo is a lounge bar with VIP tables, the Cosmo Room is a smaller space for private parties, and the Force Floor, added in 2021, changes its theme, decor and staff uniforms every week. Nights open at 21:00 with a party session of well-known tracks, then switch to a later club session with DJ selections, and international EDM guests such as KAYZO play regularly.
