Swathed by luscious green hills, a pebble’s throw from the crystal blue sea, Italy’s Guendalina sits proudly in the rustic surroundings of Santa Cesarea Terme, located on the south-east heel of Italy. Built as a series of bars, a pool and a terrace around an open-air Arena fit for thousands, the action takes place as a chaotic cauldron of activity below a neck-creaking main stage fit for SW4.
Guendalina is more concerned with top-tier talent, the likes of Carl Cox, Luciano, Richie Hawtin, Sven Väth, Ricardo Villalobos, Loco Dice, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, The Martinez Brothers, David Guetta, Marco Carola, Dubfire, Rødhåd, Âme, Ilario Alicante, John Digweed, Ellen Allien, Carl Craig, Jeff Mills, Monika Kruse, Frankie Knuckles, Tony Humphries, David Morales, Little Louie Vega, Paco Osuna, Paul Ritch, Robert Hood, Sam Paganini, Kevin Saunderson, Steve Lawler, Luca Agnelli, Ralf, Idriss D, Satoshi Tomiie, Rebekah, Pan-Pot and many more djs.
Running from May to September, this club truly is one of the Italian greats, stepping it up in recent times and scoring as a whopping new entry to the poll despite opening back in 1997.
