Colombo, the commercial capital of the island of Sri Lanka is the ideal place to experience happening nightlife. From roulette rolling to great bands with live music to gastronomical experiences to themed pubs with enthusiastic crowds, Colombo is a destination that is wallet-friendly and experience-rich.
Having legalized gambling, Colombo offers a range of casinos for the eager, with many global brands entering the scene in near future. This makes the nightlife in Colombo quite happening. Aided by reputed and reliable clubs that compete for the most-happening on a daily basis, the party animal has ample room to go wild here. Start the night with a drink under the starry skies at a popular bar such as at Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo, and then proceed to club-hop through the night. Being relatively small in size, Colombo makes it rather convenient for one to move from place to place while dancing the night away. As most of the nightlife is centred on hotels in Colombo, it is no difficult task to grab a bite to eat or a coffee to sober down before moving to your next adventure. From sky-high bars to clubs where opening doors waft in the smell of the Indian Ocean, the experience you have on the island are sure to be truly unique.
Catering to the happening nightlife, the street food of the city is open into the wee hours of the morning. It is not a sight uncommon, that a group of party goers enjoy an oily but delicious dish of kottu by the roadside or an Isso Wadé down at Galle Face Green – the favourite beach spot. The presence of a number of local and international cab services ensures that the party animal has a safe and reliable way to get back to their abode for the night once they call it a night/morning. With all the requirements of a happening location ticked off, and with a few little unique quirks to make the experiences truly unique, nightlife in Colombo is not one to miss out on.
