I had no idea that Vienna would have such a cool nightlife. The people from my hostel wanted to have a few nights on the town while they waited for their Czech visas to arrive, and I was in the midst of enjoying all things Vienna, so I definitely wanted to tag along. One night was dedicated to Mozart and Strauss, but I won't write about that in a nightlife tip, but the other two nights were nights of unending fun. Vienna nightlife; a true surprise to me!
The first nightclub we went to was Flex. We had seen signs all over town about an MTV hosted party, and figured that it might be the best event. The problem was that it was going on at 5 clubs at once! One ticket got you entrance into all of them. We chose Flex, because it was listed in our guidebooks and it's proximity. Turned out to be a great choice. The nightclub was packed and the music rangd from hard trance to very little house. My kind of dance music. Needless to say, we never tried the other clubs; all of us were having WAY too much fun where we were. I don't know if it like that every night, or if it was just good for the MTV thing, but it is worth going to.
Its location is real unique, as you have to walk down to the riverside canal and its sort of an undergound, hidden club. Very cool place.

Sometimes town planners' mistakes of bygone eras can prove to be a blessing in disguise. The Babenberger Passage under Vienna's Ringstrasse boulevard was originally designed as a pedestrian underpass linking the Hofburg Palace and the Kunsthistorisches Museum so as to prevent overground vehicle traffic from being held up.
This idea has long since been consigned to history, and the Babenberger Passage was unused for many years until it was recently given a new lease of life as a thriving club. The venue is operated by Sunshine Enterprises, the event management group that turned the Meierei in Stadtpark (City Park) into a popular night spot.
Although the building work lasted somewhat longer than expected the end result was definitely worth the wait. The atmosphere is futuristic, and the flexible design elements, combined with state-of-the-art lighting systems at times almost give the impression of being on a spaceship instead in a former imperial capital.
And the music? The programme features club, dance and house - and visitors can be sure of a lot of funky beats. If this calls Kruder & Dorfmeister or Nigel Hayes to mind, you're on the right lines. Leave a Comment Theme: Nightclub

One thing that I learned on my trip, is that every city in the world has an Irish bar. No matter where I went I saw one. I'd have to say that this was the best of the lot, with all due respect to the one in Barcelona, which I can't remember the name of...
Anyway, this is a great, typical Irish bar with all the usual amenities: Guiness, dark wood decor flanked by various green shamrocks. What more do you need in an Irish bar? Drinks were good adn the atmosphere was great.
The only drawback was the smoke; but thats every bar in Europe, so get used to it.
Normal clothes; jeans are fine. Leave a Comment Theme: Eating and DrinkingAddress: Schwarzenbergstr. 1-3Phone: 01 513 7378

Champions is a sports bar in the Marriott hotel and is also open to non-residents. For a sports bar it comes as no surprise that the place is chock full with TV sets - there are usually several sports being shown at once. The prices of the food and drink are very reasonable - a large cocktail is around EUR 6.50 to EUR 7.00 - for which price you get a good sized cocktail - I would recommend the Strawberry Colada and Daiquiris from last visit's experience. There are numerous beers on tap and the staff are friendly. If you are not a fan of sport then you might find the sound from the sport a bit too loud for your liking, but nevertheless it is a pleasant enough place to stop fro a cocktail.
Most people are fairly casually dressed but smart. There is no apparent dress code but they might claim to be full if they don't like how you are dressed.

The American Bar is a tiny bar - it is the mirrors with their trompe l'oeil effect that actually make the place seem big - and often too full to contemplate going to. They have an active policy against tourists popping in to photograph - the privilege is reserved for patrons of the bar only. The décor inside is constructed out off darkwood and marble - with its stained-glass facade being perhaps more photogenic - the darkness inside will prevent covert non-flash photography shots from coming out particularly well. The drinks are at the pricier end of things - you are paying for the architecture and the building's proximity to the Stephansdom, and it is possibly a place to meet, but not to stay the whole evening. It having been designed by Adolf Loos in 1908 seems to have helped perpetuate its fame.
Smartish - although the only real dress code is that you shouldn't look like a tourist after a photo. Leave a Comment Theme: Eating and DrinkingAddress: Kärntnerdurchgang, 1010 WienPhone: 512 3283Directions: About 100m from the StephansdomOther Contact: open 12:00-04:00 daily

In Vienna we have clubs in various historic buildings, in museums, in champagne cellars etc. But these locations change every few months. So, if you want to go out for dancing in Vienna, I recommend you to check out these pages first: www.vienna.at and www.diskothek.at - there you`ll find an event calendar and a lot of party pictures. The age range of people who go to these clubs is maybe between 18 and 40. Entrance fees are usually between 8 and 10 EUR. Leave a Comment

Vienna has an active nightlife, especially on the weekend. The young and trendy go out by 10 pm and would stay out till the wee hours of the morning. There are many clubs and bars in Vienna to cater for the outgoing and night-active crowds.
One of the nicest bar is Alcazar Cocktail Bar near Karlplatz, located on the 1st floor. It is a medium size bar, that play good music and has some cosy sitting areas. Alcazar also makes great cocktails at great prices and at 11pm, the prices of the cocktails will be 50% off.

Consists of several clubs within a club. I went to ZuGaBe to see an Austrian blues band. Not really my kind of music and the lead guitarist, Sigi, was a complete tw@t but it was okay.
