Top 10 Paris Traveler
Top 10 Events & Nightlife in Paris
10. Caveau de la Huchette
Jazz up your nightlife routine with a visit to this Top Ten Paris nightclub in a cozy cave! Swing your dance moves in the same venue where the likes of Al Copley, Jean-Paul Amouroux, Lionel Hampton, and many more world-class musicians have performed, and where many GIs frequented after WWII. Place your drink in a natural cave cranny, stand up off your wooden bench, and beware the low vaulted ceilings as you spin and twirl your way to the dance floor! Open Sun-Thur 9:30 PM - 2:30 AM, Fri-Sat 9:30 PM - 4 AM. Top 10 Paris Tip: bring your student ID!
9. Moulin Rouge
Who hasn’t wanted to see a flock of beautiful patriotic peacock-persons cavorting about on stage? This magical and vibrant dinner and cabaret experience is one of Paris’s most popular so grab your tickets before they sell out. Top 10 Paris Tip: get in line early but be prepared to wait in a long queue. You can attend just the show at 9 PM or begin with your choice of dinner and champagne from 3 menus at 7 PM. Either way, this is a show you Can’t-Can’t miss!
8. Titty Twister
If the name alone doesn’t entice you to to check out one of the hippest Top 10 Paris bars, maybe its decor will: this place looks like the man-cave art studio of Quentin Tarantino. The expansive billiards and smoking room lures those looking for a classic New York-style atmosphere while the electronic and alternative dance tunes are the perfect excuse to twist your titties around after visiting the tequila bar (we all know it makes your clothes come off). Open Thu-Sun 11AM - 5 PM.
7. Chez Raspoutine
If you ever wanted to party with Putin in Paris (judging), this historic and luxurious, velvet-lined, neoned-out plush Top 10 Paris bar interior is the closest and poshest you’ll ever get. Knife-throwers, stroganoff, burlesque dancers, and ice-cold vodka shots will have you Russian to be here! High-end and trendy visitors frequent the club to boogie to an electro-pop mix by Paris’s best DJs. Top 10 Paris Tip: Channel your inner Coco Chanel and dress snazzily— the bouncers are selective! Open Thu-Sat 11:30 PM - 6 AM.
6. Chez Georges Bistro
Next on our Top 10 Paris nightclubs is Chez Georges, a two-story pub and club with a half-century history. Head down to the vaulted stone wine cellar and enjoy a cheese plate by candlelight before tearing it up on tabletops. Basically, this is your chance to cave-in to this underground dance party! Note: not to be confused with Chez Georges restaurant (though that is a delicious error if you make it!). Open Mon-Fri 5 PM - 2 AM, Sat 12 PM - 2 AM, Sun 6 PM - 2 AM.
5. BAM Karaoke Box
Finally, a karaoke club where you don’t have to wincingly endure the cacophonous sabotage of Adele’s latest single, or the 25th rendition of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing” (no really, stop). This Asian-inspired Karaoke club offers exclusive, soundproofed rooms with customizable lights and expansive song selections so you can party like a rockstar without all those pesky papparazzi. Happy hour at the cocktail bar from 6 - 8 PM weekdays and 4 - 8 PM weekends. Karaoke bar open Mon-Fri 6:15 PM - 2 AM, Sat 10 AM - 2 AM, Sun 2 PM - 2 AM.
4. The Game
If clubbing seems less exhilarating to you than robbing a bank, this Top Ten Paris escape room is just the place to live out your criminal fantasies! Bring 3-5 cronies you feel comfortable trapped in a room with for an hour and truly test your friendship as you plan your heist. With scenes on the metro, in a casino or catacombs, you can win or lose your friends in a variety of places! Open daily 10 AM - 12 AM.
3. Paris Bar Crawl
Join local Parisians, international students, and hobo backpackers for the city’s best nightlife deal! It’s the kind of international harmony the G20 could only dream of.

Meet by the orange umbrella between 8:30 - 9:15 PM outside Metro Anvers and see what the buzz is all about!
2. Experimental Cocktail Bar
As the name implies, this Top 10 Paris cocktail lounge excels in the inventive science of mixology. Combined with an intimately cozy and aesthetic atmosphere, you’ll be feeling the vibe with these libations so sit back, relax, and let the bartenders drink and derive! Open Mon 7 PM - 3 AM, Tues-Wed & Sun 7 PM - 2 AM, Fri-Sat 7 PM - 2 AM. Closed Thursdays.
1. Dirty Dick
This place is so good you’ll swallow anything. A Parisian twist on the traditional tiki bar, this unique island-style vibe is certainly a paradise, and an appropriately named one since it used to be a brothel. The garish palm-tree wallpaper, taxidermy animal faces, totem polls, and pufferfish lamp will make you think Jimmy Buffet once threw up at this Top 10 Paris club, which is possible with over 50 rums to choose from! Open daily 6 PM - 2 AM.
