Buenos Aires, Argentina, comes to life at night. Translating to “good airs” or “fair winds,” Buenos Aires is an autonomous district filled to the brim with eclectic European architecture and a rich cultural life. The multicultural city, a melting pot of language, history, incredible food and music, comes to life at night. When you travel to Buenos Aires, be prepared to eat late, choose from hundreds of restaurants and thousands of bars and clubs, and dance beyond dawn. The city’s nightlife, as varied as it is intense, allows you to dance to whatever rhythm takes your fancy. A city that oozes sex appeal, it proves dynamic and passionate, and the beauty and rhythm will get under your skin for an amazing trip.

Bars come alive starting at 10 p.m. while nightclubs (which locals call boliches) get going around 2 a.m. You will find a multitude of selections from underground theater, live music, craft beer and cocktail bars, nightclubs and milongas (tango social clubs). If you prefer to be more of a spectator than a participant, head to La Ventana for the spectacular tango show, where a live band and professional dancers wow the crowd. Grab a bite at Teatro Astor Piazzolla and enjoy scintillating live music and a live tango show on stage in the theater. Explore the melting pot of cuisine with a cooking class where you will learn how to make your own maté drink.

Head to Trade Skybar for craft cocktails and an incredible panoramic view of Rio de la Plata River, or Nicky Harrison, a speakeasy where you enter through sushi restaurant Nicky and need a password to get into the bar. The top nightclubs in the city include Jet Lounge, Terrazas del Este, INK Buenos Aires and Rosebar, each providing a robust and noteworthy club experience. And as Argentina was the first country in Latin America to legalize gay marriage, LGBTQIA+- friendly spots include Glam, Amerika Disco, Plop, Club 69 and Human Club.

If you are ready to dance until the sun comes up, make sure to check out Buenos Aires after 5 … but really, after 10.
