Nocturnal France is beautiful: pleasant music is heard from the cafe, luxury yachts on the Cote d'Azur depart for evening walks, lovebirds sit on benches in the city parks and enjoy happiness. Of course, Gothic Avignon does not lag behind. However, many tourists, especially young people, are interested not only in the sights but also in nightclubs in Avignon. In the Barberousse Bar, you will find good music and very good alcohol. In a cozy, country-style restaurant, it's nice to taste quality rum or perfectly mixed cocktails, listen to live music and dance. Moreover, the establishment hosts thematic parties, for example, a night in the Hippie style. L’Explo Bar à bières artisanales - is the magnificent beer bar, especially beloved by men. Here they serve excellent craft beer and fashionable DJs entertain the public. Pub Z - is a stylishly designed modern club where progressive young people gather to skip a couple of cocktails and dance. In Les Ambassadeurs is a great place for those who are nostalgic for the glorious past times. In Le Carre Rouge every lover of salsa can dance just like it! Relaxing atmosphere in the spirit of Latin America, incendiary rhythms, a huge dance floor - you can stay here all night and lose a couple of extra pounds!
