But nightclubs are vanishing - with more than a third of Britain’s night spots closing since 2020.
Yet for revellers of the past, finishing off your night out by dancing at a local club was a ritual.
In Chesterfield we were spoilt for choice with Xanadu, Aquarius, Adam and Eve and Fusion among others.
Rock bar the Green Room was also popular for a wild night out in the 2000s. It was much more than a just pub, or a small live music venue - it became the town’s sanctuary for the alternative.
