Kiev nightlife. Where to go and what to expect

Local trends

Nightclubs in Ukraine are open mainly two days a week, on Fridays and Saturdays (these nights are called “for amateurs”, because true party cougars explore Kiev nightlife every evening). For those especially enthusiastic there are clubs that work 7 days a week: Caribbean Club and Coyote Ugly and numerous bars, of course. Exceptions to this rule are quite rare. In addition, it is worth keeping an eye on local holidays – the night before the holiday Kiev nightlife can be too overwhelming and clubs can be clogged up even on weekdays, and on Fridays or on Saturdays right after the holiday party establishments are empty. If you want bottle service in one of the best establishments of the city, it is better to book it by phone min 2 days in advance.

In summer time, everything depends on weather and different events in the city. Most locals prefer to spend warm summer nights in the country or just on the nature, so as not to sweat in the hot atmosphere of nightclubs. However, in winter, the situation is opposite – the venues make the best parties of the country.

As a rule, clubs open at 12 o’clock. After four o’clock in the morning, the energy usually declines – starting from that time it is getting too late to rock in the club. Choosing the right time for visit is a matter of practical research and a bit of luck. The clubs are open until 6am.

Such research does not require much money: entrance to the club costs 8-10 euros (except for expensive events with famous foreign DJs), so visiting 4 or 5 clubs for one night is not a problem; especially when you know that the most popular venues are located in the city center. Besides, Uber is always a great help.

Public transport does not work from about midnight to 6am, so it is better to get to your hotel by taxi, especially if you are a little too drunk. Of course, Kiev is not Chicago, there is less street crime, but reasonable precautions will not harm at any time of the day.

Dress stylish, look cool

Some places have dress code, and some adhere to face control – that is unspoken and very subjective estimation. If the guard senses that you are a potential threat, that is, you are ready to make fight with each and every, there is big chance of not getting into the place. The same is if you wear sneakers and old trousers. Ladies in Kiev also undergo face control, but for them entrance to almost all nightclubs is free. Not likely, you take this issue to European Court of Human Rights; it is just evaluation of the club and it makes no sense to go against it. Dress stylish, look good and do not bully the bouncer – he just does his job.

Nevertheless, when you get inside, you gonna feel like a hedonist in nirvana. Beautiful Ukrainian girls on the right, cool guys on the left, the DJ plays hits from the Top-40, and barmen cheerfully shake cocktails. Welcome to Paradise! Have fun! What should I get you? Well, in fact, there is a chance you do not get to the bar, because there is a crowd longing for bartender attention. If you win a look of bartender, nod in a friendly way and smile, take the same reciprocal gesture and now the barman gives you all his attention – order at your pleasure.

The best Kiev bars in 2017 are:
