Hamburg after dark: St. Pauli, Schanzenviertel, Großneumarkt

No visitor to Hamburg should miss the city by night. The lively metropolis in the north has much to offer - and no two districts are the same.

You should definitely get to know the Schanzenviertel, for example. While it was still considered to be particularly disreputable a few years ago, it has now developed into a colourful district with many restaurants, cafés, pubs, beer gardens and an active nightlife.

Free admission to all parties of the famous club Große Freiheit 36

Die Große Freiheit 36 - one of the legendary clubs of the Reeperbahn. Opened in 1985 under its present name, the "Freiheit" is still a venue for grandiose parties and concerts.

Concerts & Live Music

Every year Hamburg hosts rousing concerts of all genres. And not without reason: With the Barclaycard-Arena, the Markthalle or the Mojo-Club, Hamburg has the most beautiful location in Germany for the most electrifying events.

Hamburg after dark - a must for party-lovers

Before starting your party night, you can enjoy a cool beer in the evening in one of the numerous bars and pubs. The Großneumarkt district is very popular with locals and visitors alike and has many wine bars, pubs and romantic taverns. If you like jazz, this is the place for you: Several clubs offer live music several times a week, where you can enjoy a cocktail or two. There are also Irish pubs with international and Irish cuisine. During the week the official end under the open sky is 11:00 p.m. and 12 midnight at the weekend. But in the pubs, people often sit until dawn, chat and celebrate.

Get to know the Kiez

Certainly the most well-known area in Hamburg is St. Pauli. Along the Reeperbahn entertainment mile, where the metre-long ship ropes, the "Reepe", were made many years ago, there are countless pubs, discos, bars, pubs and shops as well as music bars and nightclubs. Even the Beatles once performed here. Anyone who appreciates entertainment should go to the Operettenhaus, where new musicals are performed again and again. But also party-goers will surely find the right club here: Every kind of music is represented here, and you can dance through the night. Experiencing Hamburg at night is a must when you visit the Hanseatic city.
