About Bars & Nightlife in Nice

As one of France’s largest cities and most popular tourist destinations, it’s no surprise that there’s lots do at night in Nice, whether you fancy a classy cocktail looking out across the Mediterranean, a bustling nightclub, or live music in one of the lively English pubs. 

This cosmopolitan city offers an animated nightlife from sundown to sun-up with its array of beach clubs, wine bars, pubs and nightclubs. Without a doubt the Old Town, with its narrow cobbled streets, offers plenty of atmosphere and the perfect venue for an early evening drink, getting you in the mood for the livelier bars of the Place Massena, before you make your way back into the Old Town and hit one of the pumping nightclubs. The hotel bars and beach clubs along the Promenade des Anglais offer a variety of options from a sophisticated sunset cocktail to a glamorous champagne bar that stays open until the early hours.
