Los Angeles - Nightlife & Clubs

Although unlimited in genre and number, nightlife venues around Los Angeles close fairly early- patrons get kick out around 2AM. If you intend to go out on the town, we suggest an early start, around 10PM. Luckily, you can pick from a wide variety of hotspots, depending entirely on your mood and your ability to travel a bit. If you're staying across town, in Santa Monica for instance, and feel the need to dance at a nightclub, then a little travel time may be in order. And of course, don't drink and drive! So, call a cab or find yourself a designated driver and check out some of La2Day's favorite nightclubs, bars, and lounges. For more on after hours hotspots, check out our Nightlife Section.

It's the main area for enjoying the nightlife in Los Angeles with a wide choice of venues, bars, and even karaoke for those of you who need to let loose.
