The man was shot three times in the leg and groin at close range, in Exchange Street, at around 3.15am.
It is thought there had been an earlier altercation between two groups inside the club, in South Street, which reignited outside at closing time.
The victim, who has not been named, is critically ill but stable in an east London hospital.
Officers from Operation Trident - which examines gun crime in London - are investigating, but there have been no arrests, a spokesman for Havering Police said.
