We've discussed the part incompetence, a lack of planning, lack of capital and reckless social behavior plays in why so many nightclubs fail. The other major causes of nightclub failures can can be attributed to a variety of social disorders which can hinder an operators ability to manage in an effective way.
Lack of a solid team of players. More specifically, the owner has no clue of how to assemble a team, so what you end up with is someone who knew someone got the job, and then friends of friends of friends who got the other jobs. The final result is a bunch of people looking after their own interests, not the clubs.
Covid lockdowns, rising running costs, an ever-increasing cost of living, and a trend that's seeing young people opt for the bar over the club are some of the key drivers of the change.

Berghain is infamous for being the most exclusive, hard-to-get-into nightclub in the world. (Elon Musk was just denied earlier this year, an instance that flooded the internet with headlines and further spread the notion that some places on Earth are inaccessible even for the Man on Mars.)
This history and status within Berlin is the driving force behind the club's difficult door policy and the main reason why Berghain is so hard to get into. Infamous Berghain bouncer, Sven Marquardt, will attest to this, saying he and his men feel responsible for the club.

There are club nights specifically aimed at older folks; look for nights offering older commercial dance music (70's, 80's or 90's, if that's what you like) or theme parties that interest you.
