Havana Nightlife - Havana Bars



HAVANA NIGHTLIFE - HAILA AT THE HAVANA MALECON
NEW YEAR 2008

Meet Haila Mompie, the popular Cuban Singer

Havana Nights - Cuban nightlife

Havana nightlife offers many opportunities for a great night out: lots of bars with live music, and clubs for music listening and dancing. Best places to experience the Havana nightlife and live music:

Casa de la Musica - Havana Centro
Calle Galiano (Galiano Street) between Neptuno and Concordia Street
Casa de la Musica - Miramar
Calle 20 esq 35 playa miramar
Café Cantante, Mi Habana
Teatro Nacional de Cuba, Paseo esquina 39 Plaza de la Revolucion, Vedado

my recommendations:
Be on time, there’s always a crowd particularly when a famous music band like the VAN VAN is announced.

Be aware a night at the Casa de la Musica can be expensive, but the ambience is great, a highly recommended experience with non stop dancing and music from midnight till 4 o’ clock in the morning. The cover charge is between 10 - 25 CUC per person, and a bottle of Havana Club rum sells for 25 -50 CUC.
A word of caution:
beware of pickpockets and don’t walk alone in the dark streets of Old Havana and Havana Centro. Your best bet is to take a taxi to your hotel or casa.
