I went to a no-alcohol morning rave at the top of London's Shard - and learned to appreciate sober clubbing

When you're waking up for work on a Wednesday, partying may be the last thing on your mind, but more than 100 people queued up outside The Shard in London at 6am on Wednesday to dance the morning away.

Events firm Morning Gloryville held a "sober immersive dance experience" at London's tallest skyscraper on November 16, 2016. Basement Jaxx's Felix Buxton was the headline act.

Morning Gloryville's dance parties take place all across the globe - from New York to London to Berlin - and feature plenty of dancing, yoga, energetic music, free massages, smoothies and coffee.

The event was held at the Shard's viewing platform, which offers visitors 360-degree views for up to 40 miles.

Samantha Moyo, Morning Gloryville's founder and CEO, told Business Insider that she began setting up early morning raves as "a healthy way to come together and enjoy music without the drugs and without the alcohol."

Since the London-based company's launch in 2013, their events have attracted more than 150,000 visitors. In May 2016, Morning Gloryville won an award for the Best Zero Alcohol Initiative in the UK by UK charity Alcohol Concern.

The party marked the launch of a new charitable initiative. Moyo wants to raise £100,000 on crowdfunding platform Indiegogo in order to bring morning raves to poverty-stricken parts of the world, and leave behind "tools or knowledge that will tangibly benefit each community that it visits."

Here's what the ravers got up to while they watched the sunrise 800ft high above London.
