Clubhouse has been on everyone’s lips lately. It has carved out quite a reputation for innovation and creativity. As an audio chat application, it gives you an entirely different experience compared to most social media platforms that focus on text and images.
To communicate, you need to join a room or create one, but all rooms are found within clubs. So, how can one join a club? Or how can you create one and invite members?
In this article, we’re going to show you how to join a club in Clubhouse and answer a number of questions to help you understand just what the platform offers.
What Is a Club?
A club is an interest-based group that works pretty much like a Facebook group. It brings together users with a common interest. This could be anything – from computers, mobile devices, agriculture, space tech, through to cryptocurrency, cybersecurity, and much more.
Club members enjoy a host of benefits. They can create or join rooms to initiate conversations, curate speakers, search current members, and even nominate new members. They can also host events and notify members in advance through an in-app calendar.
How to Join a Club in Clubhouse
As a new service, Clubhouse is yet to develop a detailed operations manual. In addition, some of the tools are, at the moment, not freely accessible to every user.
Currently, there’s no way to join a club. However, all existing clubs allow you to follow them. When you start following a club, you’ll get notifications for all upcoming public events.

Additional FAQs
1. Why Has Clubhouse Become So Popular?
Clubhouse offers a different user experience compared to other social media platforms. While others concentrate on text and images, Clubhouse gives you the chance to communicate via audio. It’s pretty much like a podcast, but one that also gives you an opportunity to chime in and share your thoughts with others.
Clubhouse has become so popular because a number of celebrities and tech moguls are already using it. We’re talking about public figures like Elon Musk, Oprah Winfrey, Kevin Hart, Wiz Khalifa, Drake, and many others. This has created a buzz around the platform as fans strive to at least listen in to their favorite celebrity or even engage with them one on one.
In addition, Clubhouse allows you to shed off some of the formalities found on other platforms.
For instance, you can choose not to upload a profile picture. What’s more, you don’t need to worry about how you look because you’ll never have to use your camera. In the words of the app’s founders, “You can talk on Clubhouse while you’re folding laundry, breastfeeding, commuting, working on your couch in the basement, or going for a run.”
Another reason why Clubhouse is quickly gaining users is that there are no limits on topics. Anything goes. You’re free to talk about anything on your mind. However, there are certain community guidelines that must be followed.
Finally, the app’s friendly user interface has been a big hit. Even as a new user, you’re able to navigate and check out the current users, rooms, live events, and more.
2. Can I Create a Club on Clubhouse?
At the moment, starting a club isn’t easy. You’ll need to fill out and submit a Club request form. Then you’ll have to wait in line as the approval team analyzes your request. In fact, the app’s developers are on record saying that there are many club requests under evaluation, and they’ve had to prioritize approving membership to existing clubs over requests for starting new ones.
If you’re wondering whether there’s a way to get your club request approved a lot faster, you’ll be pleased to learn that being more active in existing clubs can help. If you can host a few weekly shows, even better.
