Lisbon is a bustling city, full of young people, it is cheap to live in, and offers a variety of vibrant options for a fun night out.
“Fado” Clubs
Listening to this Portuguese blues at an authentic club is a wonderful way to spend an evening in Lisbon. The Alfama area is considered the “home” of fado in the city.
Dance Clubs
In Lisbon, there is a stunning club scene and lots of dance clubs that are open until late. The best clubs in the city are in the Bairro Alto area.
Bars
The city offers a variety of special bars with different themes. One of them is the “Pensão Amor” bar. The bar is housed in an 18th-century building that was once a brothel. This is a playful place, with a cabaret vintage design. It has great music and a nice dance floor. The bar house is located at Rua do Alecrim 19 in the nightlife area called Cais do Sodré—which tourists usually do not visit. This area used to be a run-down district of Lisbon, but has lately become a vibrant place for nightlife, with clubs, bars, restaurants, and shops.
