If you are visiting Edinburgh, you will need to make a point to visit some of the cities nightclubs. Visiting some of Edinburgh’s nightclubs can give you a better understanding and appreciation for the city as well as the many attractions that can be found within it. Edinburgh city has always been a magnet for students and as a result has very active nightclubs and hospitality premises.
Learning About The Nightclub Scene
The Edinburgh nightclub scene has exploded over the last few years. This famous Edinburgh visitor attraction is now home to some of the UK’s top nightclubs. For a great night out at any one of Edinburgh’s fabulous clubs you need to find the right venue. It’s easy to just look online for” Edinburgh nightclubs” and be blown away by what you see. Unfortunately this is not the case. In reality most of the “nightlife” at Edinburgh consists of drinking, eating and talking – and that’s it.
There are hundreds of clubs in Edinburgh, so why should you choose one? The most important factor is that it’s right for you. If you’ve got a young crowd then a loud club will probably not be the best venue. Likewise if you’re an older tourist with no social skills then a “disco bar” may be a more appropriate choice. Some DJs specialize in particular genres, so if you know your tastes then there’s something for everyone.
Of course there are also the “underground” Edinburgh nightclubs. These are the clubs hidden away in alleys and buildings. Most visitors to Edinburgh think of the bars when they hear the word “clubbing”. If you go to the underground clubs you’ll usually have to work your way through a large number of people before you get to the dance floor. This can be tough but it’s well worth it.
Making The Most Out Of Your Night
After the dance floor, you’ll find the lounge and the bar. These two venues are the heart and soul of Edinburgh night life. The lounge has all the usual Edinburgh night sights like the street performers or the ever present stag do.
Another important place to visit is the “tavern” – or pubs if you prefer. These are Edinburgh’s “real” night spots. The drinks are cheaper and the atmosphere is generally friendlier than in nightclubs, but they aren’t as good looking – and you should be prepared to tip for the barman.
Enjoying The Best Nightlife Experiences
Overall, the best Edinburgh nightclub experience is to visit all three of the aforementioned areas. You can spend a single evening at each and spend a little time wandering around the city. Or you can spend several nights in the pubs and let yourself go fully wild on the dancing floors. It all depends on how much fun you’re having. I can recommend these three areas to any visiting party animal – whether you’re on your first visit or your last.
Ultimately, having a pleasant night out comes down to a variety of factors. It is important that you enjoy your night as well as ensuring that you are able to afford it. Being able to visit nightclubs that offer value for money as well as good entertainment is always a big plus.
