K41 is one of the main hubs of contemporary electronic music and club culture in Kyiv. It’s widely known for its philosophy of freedom and inclusivity: you can look however you like and be yourself without judgement. The club strictly follows a “no racism, no sexism, no homophobia, no transphobia” policy. To protect guests’ privacy, photography inside is forbidden – what happens here stays here.
The club is housed in a former 19th-century brewery that has been transformed into a gothic-style space with brick arches, spiral staircases and rooms that feel like hidden chambers. The atmosphere is like stepping into an alternative reality where music sets the rules.
Getting into a rave at “Kyrylivska”, as locals call the club, isn’t guaranteed. A strict door policy is in place: beyond age and appearance, it matters if you know anything about K41. Staff may ask who’s playing or what brought you here. If everything checks out, you’ll be allowed in, and the night will speak for itself.
