  MY TALLINN

Nightclubs

 

These are the places to go for high-energy mixing and mingling, not to mention dancing. Generally speaking, nightclubs in Tallinn open their doors at 10 or 11pm, but they only really get going sometime after midnight. Most people will linger in nearby bars until then. On Fridays and Saturdays clubs stay open until 4 or 6 a.m. Anyone visiting on a Sunday, Monday or Tuesday should keep in mind that most clubs don't bother operating on those traditionally slow days.

The clientele at Amigo, a buzzing nightspot in the basement of the Sokos Hotel Viru, tends to be more mature than that of Tallinn's other clubs, with a heavy dose of Finnish hotel guests making up the crowd.

CatHouse

cathouse@cathouse.ee · Homepage

It bills itself as 'The Sexiest Nightclub in Tallinn', and CatHouse certainly makes good on its claim in terms of the decadent, boudoir-like ambience.
