alongside 10 clubs in London, Manchester and Ibiza for the BBC Radio 1 Dance Awards prize for best venue in the UK and Europe.

"I think the joke we've been making is we've heard of every one of those clubs except for us!," Mr Baxter said.

Joe Savory said the nightclub had a "great atmosphere"

Gonzo's is known as a place to finish off a night out and it seems to draw people back time and again.

Joe Savory, 21, said although it might not be able to match clubs in Ibiza, it had a "great atmosphere".

He said: "I really do like it in there. It does get chaotic in there but I've only been there a few times. It is a good atmosphere if you like to have a dance and like your music."

Rachel Martin said any nightclub that has left her partying all night deserved an award

The venue is also memorable for 34-year-old Rachel Martin, who said: "It was our first baby-free night out and my husband and I had a few drinks... it was awesome.

"We didn't get home until 06:00 the next morning, so great times.

"I haven't been to Ibiza but anywhere that gets us to stay out until 6am in Norwich should probably get some sort of award."

The winner of the BBC Radio 1 Dance Awards prize for best venue in the UK and Europe will be announced live on Radio 1 Dance from 18:00 GMT on 21 February.
