:: Expo
Since its creation, in 1998, much of the night action has moved here.
The bars zone is close to the Portugal Tower (the tallest building in
Expo, 105m, with a portuguese fag on top), south direction. From
tradicional bars to dancing ones, there is a great variety here. Some
bars have external televisions where they display important football
(soccer) maches. Several Restaurants also provide after hour meals.
 :: Bairro Alto
Old buildings, fancy bars, diferent looking people (ok, sometimes
really strange!), people grabbing a beer sitting on the floor, a smile
on their face... Bairro Alto! This is the more searchen place in Lisbon
to go out at night. Beyond the bars, several Fado houses are spread
around.
:: Docks
This old wharehouses region is one the the neatest places around. The
proximitty to the river and peace of the parked boats give these bars a
nice romantic setting. If you look for a dancing place, we recommend the
Havana Club (Shirt and shoes are advisable to get in).
:: Downtown
There are many caffes scattered all over downtown. These usually close at mid-night, and can work as a starter
for a longer night, or just for the Cinderella night walkers. The
reason why we include'em in this guide is because Downtown Lisbon is
worth a walk at night. Many beautyfull buildings are lightened and
deserve a night look: City Hall, Terreiro do Paço, Rossio, Rua
Augusta...
:: Carcavelos Beach
10Km away from Lisbon, Carcavelos's beach is a nice place to have a
drink always with sand & sea on sight. Sports Bar (easy to spot -
it's the tallest building in the middle of the beach line) organizes
dancing & thematic parties frequently. If there is not a special
party, most of the bars are a relatively quiet place to go out, and not
just at night.
:: Cascais
Late working restaurants and bars in many cosy esplanades - praça Luís
de Camões, at the heart of Cascais, is the perfect example. On new
year's eve, downtown Cascais, near the beach, is the place for one of
the best fireworks in Lisbon's region.
Some night party people see downtown just as a starter, before hitting the dance floor somewhere else.
15 minutes walk away from downtown (west direction), the docks (Marina de Cascais) are a
modern go out at night place. Many bars, disco bars and chic stores
populate this summer nights crowded block.
Close to the Marina, the disco Coconuts is a must for dance music lovers. 2
dancing rooms, an outside esplanade, a karaoke room and a good music
selection make this disco one of the best around.
