King Xhmu is one of the biggest clubs in Sapporo and Hokkaido, if not the biggest. The club has a striking edifice, that of stone serpents and a giant Aztecan face bearing down over the street. The inside is equally impressive with a three story high interior decked out with cool designs such as silver gilded snakes, skulls, and a giant bird of prey spreading its wings over the bar. The club has a main dance floor area with a stage, two bars, a smaller dance floor on the second floor plus a women’s sitting area. The club is mostly popular after 23:00 where it gets busy.

For those entering the club, after showing ID, party goers will realize that men have to pay more than their female counterparts. Women are usually free. For those unfamiliar with the club, the cost is around ¥3500 for men. The club, although of its large size, has a relatively small dance area and standing area. A lot of the club is made up of (and usually empty) VIP lounge areas that a cordoned off from the main area. These VIP areas are the only places to sit in the club unfortunately, so unless you want to spend up to an extra ¥20,000 you have to stand. Cocktails, beers, and champagne are sold at the bar. Cocktails are served in small plastic cups and the small plastic shot glasses are rarely filled to the top. It’s better to order bottled beer to get your moneys worth. Drinks are around ¥500. There are events throughout the year, so check the website for more information.
