Lisbon by Night

Lisbon has a heart for revellers and the city's nightlife is generally considered to be amongst the best in Europe. The night in Lisbon starts at sunset and goes on till dawn. Undoubtedly, a side of the city not to be missed.

People in Lisbon love going out, and the city has different areas with different styles of restaurants and bars where one can go. Areas like Docas or Bairro Alto are among the favourites. It is normal for a night out on the town to last until the next morning, given that most bars don't close until 2 a.m. and discos are open to 6 a.m. and later.

Lisbon's bars, theatres, cabarets and discos add spice to life in the city after dark. The Fado houses, where one can savour the excellent local cooking and listen to the emotional music of Lisbon, are unique. The options and offers for a night out vary according to the individual's taste, but quality and fun are always guaranteed.




The Alfama has a choice selection of street cafés, restaurants and Fado houses.
The Bairro Alto has always been a favourite with nightlife lovers, and it has cultivated its own unique style over the years, which distinguishes it from other nightlife areas around the city. Here you will also find restaurants that stay open until quite late. The Bairro Alto offers a huge selection of typical Portuguese and international cuisine, and is also home to many bars, discos and a number of theatres.

The Zona Ribeirinha (waterfront), better known as Docas, has recently developed into one of the liveliest nightlife areas in Lisbon. The many restaurants, bars, street cafés and discos by the river make a night out in Lisbon something really special. Even more recent that the Zona Ribeirinha is the Jardim do Tobaco area, and it is already a new favourite. Here, too, you can find restaurants, bars and esplanades, some of which put on special shows or theme parties.
