Very sad news from Toronto: Footwork to close

Footwork has been open since 2005 and has been host to practically every major underground act. This club has been a very important venue that showcased the very best in underground music so with its impending closing, that will leave a major hole in the Toronto EDM community which will be up to other venues to fill up. Not only did Footwork host some of the best DJs in the world, but they were fundamental in promoting local talent as well.

Footwork currently sits at #36 on DJ Mag's top 100 clubs in the world, so if you want to experience this venerable club before they close their doors next month, there are still a few great parties that you can still attend:
