5 Best Nightlife in Kaohsiung

Kaohsiung has a wide variety of pubs, discotheques, and nightclubs to offer to the fun loving and hardcore party-going visitor. But all of us know that the key to having a great time is to know where the party’s at, which is why we’ve got this little guide to some of the hottest places to party in the city.

The nightlife in Kaohsiung is on a similar par to that of Taipei, so you can expect to see big-name DJs on stage in some of the more popular clubs and even a few celebrities enjoying the cocktails and the classy bars. It’s not all high-society, of course, and there are some more budget-friendly options for those who just want to have a bit of fun after dark.

1. Urban Spotlight

Categoría: Vida nocturna

Urban Spotlight is something of a cross between a public space, an art exhibition and a nightclub. A relatively quiet city park by day, at night, just when the evening sets in, the whole area lights up. There are a number of bands that perform live here and the coffee shops bustle with people. You can see locals and visitors having a good time and feasting on ultra-delectable food at the stalls, which are especially famous for their seafood.

2. Brickyard

Categoría: Vida nocturna, Grupos

Brickyard is famous for its live music and its themed clubbing nights. Every Wednesday is both student and ladies night while Thursdays are gay-friendly and Fridays are Latin night. As you might expect, the club attracts a very varied but lively international crowd. It’s the go-to choice for most of the city’s expats.

There is a cover charge every night, which also pays for your first drink, but the charges are generally reasonable. Unusually, for a nightclub, the food at Brickyard is really good.
