Belgrade Events - Belgrade Nightlife events

Belgrade has a reputation for offering a vibrant nightlife, and many clubs that are open until dawn can be found throughout the city. The most recognizable nightlife features of Belgrade are the barges (сплавови, splavovi) spread along the banks of the Sava and Danube Rivers.

Many weekend visitors - particularly from Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia and Slovenia—prefer Belgrade nightlife to that of their own capitals, due to a perceived friendly atmosphere, great clubs and bars, cheap drinks, the lack of language difficulties, and the lack of restrictive night life regulation.

Skadarlija - the city's old bohemian neighborhood

Famous alternative clubs include Akademija and the famed KST (Klub Studenata Tehnike) located in the basement of the University of Belgrade Faculty of Electrical Engineering. One of the most famous sites for alternative cultural happenings in the city is the SKC (Student Cultural Center), located right across from Belgrade's high rise landmark, the Beograđanka. Concerts featuring famous local and foreign bands are often held at the center. SKC is also the site of various art exhibitions, as well as public debates and discussions.

A more traditional Serbian nightlife experience, accompanied by traditional music known as Starogradska (roughly translated as Old Town Music), typical of northern Serbia's urban environments, is most prominent in Skadarlija, the city's old bohemian neighborhood where the poets and artists of Belgrade gathered in the nineteenth century and early twentieth century. Skadarska Street (the center of Skadarlija) and the surrounding neighborhood are lined with some of Belgrade's best and oldest traditional restaurants (called kafanas in Serbian), which date back to that period. At one end of the neighborhood stands Belgrade's oldest beer brewery, founded in the first half of the nineteenth century. One of the city's oldest kafanas is the Znak pitanja "?" (Question Mark "?" kafana).

The respected Times newspaper in the UK reported that Europe's best nightlife can be found in buzzing Belgrade. In the Lonely Planet "1000 Ultimate Experiences", Belgrade was placed at the 1st spot among the top 10 party cities in the world.

Here are some of the many positive reviews and experiences on Belgrade and its nightlife:

Nighlife in Belgrade is something that every tourist is fond of. You can find a wide spectar of clubs and bars that work every night. Serbians are friendly and not a hard - working nation, so you don't have to wait for weekends to go out!

The girls in Belgrade are absolutely the most beautiful you can find in this part of Europe. The bartenders are always in a good mood and love to get people drunk. Cover charges are never too much either.

Splavovi (restaurants and clubs that are on boats and water) are a great place to spend warm summer nights in Belgrade. The atmosphere is great and the music has many ranges. Mostly in clubs you will hear Serbian Turbofolk, Trance, House, and Hip Hop.

Recently, according to several local, regional and international news magazines, papers and news agencies, notably The New York Times and CNN , Belgrade has become quite the regional night life hub, boasting cheap drinks and accommodation, apartments in the very center of Belgrade in comparison to the rest of Europe and the regional capitals like Zagreb, Budapest, and even Athens. Weekend fun-seeking visitors from Europe and most notably from Croatia and Slovenia revere Belgrade as "the-place-to-be", citing friendly atmosphere, great clubs and bars, cheap drinks, language they can understand and lack of restrictive night life regulation.
