A city isn't complete without some places that you can go after hours to have a drink with friends, meet new friends, enjoy the music and dance the night away.
Some restaurants are for dining-in only and they do not encourage any other activities such as parties or live music. Some restaurants that are more likely to have a band performing or live music at the dining area make the surrounding more lively and gives an easy relaxed atmosphere.
It does not come as a surprise that you can dance the night away at a club as they are bound to be the most exciting location to go dancing. If you would like to move about and have a fun night out dancing then you should head to a club to play all those dance moves.
Some pubs have live bands or performances during the evening set up which allow people to dance and sing along to the tunes. While you enjoy a drink with some friends you are able to enjoy the music and nightlife in Colombo. City Hotel is known to have a pub that livens up anyone's mood.
Being an island it would be a shame to not host parties at beachfront properties. With the sea breeze blowing in and reminding you of the comfort of tropical weather you get to enjoy music, the environment and good company.
Beach parties are some of the most exciting in Colombo as they bring out an ambience that you cannot achieve in any indoor location. Some parties are with live bands and bonfires which make the evening even more exciting.
With the skyscrapers that are booming all around the city, rooftop parties have been taking place quite often. While the music and the food are bound to make your evening the view, the weather and the city lit up at night will only make the evening better.
Sports bars get busy at night as all sports fans get together to enjoy the events and have friendly debates about the strength of the supporting team. With the atmosphere being exciting but friendly most sports bars also have music that livens up the mood.
After parties are mostly held at city hotels such as Colombo Court Hotel & Spa. The ease of access, parking opportunity and the facilities are bound to make organising easier and allows more opportunities for guests to have a good time.
House parties happen almost every night and if you are invited then you are bound to have a good time as it will be a closed group of people and you are likely to know most of those who are at the party.
Outdoor parties in this beautiful tropical island cannot beat most other venues. Under the twinkling stars, with the tropical breeze on your skin, with drinks, friends and music to liven up the mood, outdoor parties have become extremely popular in 2019.
