Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Copenhagen right now.
Nightspots are concentrated on and around Strøget. Restaurants, cafés, bars, and clubs stay open after midnight, a few until 5 am. Check out the Copenhagen City Guide (www.ctw.dk) and the English newspaper The Copenhagen Post (www.cphpost.dk) for listings.
Copenhagen used to be famous for jazz, but that has changed, with many of the best clubs closing down. However, you can find nightspots catering to almost all musical tastes, from ballroom music to house, rap, and techno. There are also plenty of trendy clubs where DJs provide the sound tracks.
A must for jazz lovers. This is Copenhagen's quintessential jazz dive, with sagging curtains, impenetrable smoke (although there is a room for smokers), nights that turn into mornings without you noticing it, and hepcats.
Some of the bigger names in Danish music (pop, rock, and urban) and budding artists from abroad play at this medium-size venue in Christiania, which is run by volunteers and known for spotting the next big thing on the international alternative rock and indie scene. Covers range from DKr 50 to DKr 350.
The large Copenhagen Jazzhouse attracts international names to its chic, modern, barlike interior. The downstairs concert hall turns into a dance club on Friday and Saturday after the jazz acts end. You can buy tickets at the door starting an hour before it begins.
