Sparty's Night Club

• Located on Clippert Street in downtown Lansing, you can hang out with the older college crowd at this low-key club. Thursday nights are the most popular time for the under-21 crowd, when the DJ is spinning techno and top 40/Billboard hits. However, the 18-21 year old group can go to Sparty's every night of the week. Don't try to get your older friends to buy some drinks for you or else the bouncers will throw you out and ask you not to return.
