Lisbon Nightlife

Lisbon is well known for its nightlife. The Bairro Alto district and surrounding area are considered one of the two most prominent hot spots for nightlife in Lisbon, with more than 100 bars and restaurants in a small neighbourhood. Lisbon has a vibrant nightlife scene, which spills onto the cobbled streets of Chiado, watches the dawn come up over the Tagus River and serenades the stars from rooftop bars in the fragrant, warm night air. There are haunts for the young and clubs for the locals: old favourites like “O Pavilhão Chinês” and newcomers like Praia no Parque, where dinner continues seamlessly into dancing.

Weather Forecast

April is in the spring in Lisbon, during daytime an average of around 10°C (50°F), whilst at night, 16°C (60,8°F) is expected. For more information, you can consult the following link.
