Night Life In Serbia

If you are worried about how to spend your evenings here, then welcome to RocApply Serbia Nightlife! The nightlife in the country is pretty quiet Sunday through Wednesday unless you know the right places to go to (hint: ask the natives). Otherwise, check around for flyers advertising ladies’ nights early in the week.

Friday nights are popular, and Saturday nights are the busiest of the week. Arrive early if you want to get a good table at discotecas on the weekends, and avoid any lines at the popular spots.

The country’s raucous nightlife, cheap drinks, and cool clubs that stay open until dawn attract partiers from throughout the ex-Yugoslavian nation. One Sava River floating cocktail bar, known simply as Cruise is among the liveliest of the country’s many floating clubs. The Tube, located inside a former nuclear shelter, attracts DJs from across the country and is among Belgrade's most unique dry-land venues.

The city's first Irish pub, the Three Carrots, is the best place to enjoy a pint of Guinness and watch soccer matches in the Serbian capital, Belgrade.

The university city of Novi Sad boasts its own lively club scene, but no club in Serbia’s second-largest city dates further back than Pipping, still one of Novi Sad’s hottest and most chilled party sites in the country.

Just steps from Pipping lies the German-themed Berliner Pub, where Scheider Weisse is just one of the numerous great beers on tap. Novi Sad’s Petrovaradin Fortress, however, may contain the country’s most unusual hotspot of all.

Dress codes apply to a minority of discotecas in the major towns. Ninety-nine percent of the time you won't need to worry about dressing up for a night of partying here. For both men and women, jeans, t-shirts, and sneakers are perfect. The women tend to dress up more than men, which is the case for much of the European region.

There's a broad blend of music in Serbia. Generally, middle and upper-class Serbians prefer electronic melodies, and these clubs are common in large cities.

Today, the country’s capital may be many years behind other European capitals when it comes to economic, industrial, and scientific development, but it’s literally light years ahead when it sums to its nightlife. The Belgrade clubbing industry is better organized and has more to give than any other out there.

Every night of the week, there are many different clubs with different styles, and with unique kinds of grooves where you can go. It may be difficult to believe, but all the clubs which have the capacity of three-hundred to five-hundred people are basically full every night of the week.

Be wary of:

  1. Paying a cover charge, and buying individual drinks in the Discoteca.
  2. Being required to spend a pre-defined amount of money on drinks, instead of having to pay the cover charge.
  3. Being required to pay a cover charge that includes one or more "free" drinks, though your options maybe not be allowed.
