The sweaty nightlife of Zagreb
A city break in Zagreb is not complete without experiencing the well known nightlife. Zagreb is known to be the party capital of Croatia, and the nightlife scene is hectic all year round. Only in the middle of the summer the buzz is fading a bit as the locals are rushing away from the city heat to enjoy the party beaches on the Adriatic coast.
For the young and eager party traveler, the most interesting part of Zagreb would be the city's night clubs and bars. There are plenty of them where you don't have to pay an entrance fee. A large number of them are situated in the centre, as opposed to other cities, fancier places and student pubs can all be found in close proximity. (You should keep in mind that the Zagreb city centre is compact and easy to get around, so everyone from the artsy fartsy types and students are all in the centre). As a tourist you should really take advantage of this. What about starting the night with an luxurious cocktail among the Croatian jet-set before you head to a student pub and down a few pints of the local lager?
Some specific tips
However, different types of night clubs play specific music genres. If you like rock music head to Purgaraj, Sax, and Tvornica. If pop music is your cup of tea, go to Lemon club, Boogaloo, Saloon, Gjuro 2 and Jabuka. If you would like to experience Croatian folk music, Ludnica or Lake City will do it for you. For the electronica lovers, go to Shamballa, but the best electronic night club is Aquarious at Jarun Lake.
