Photo. Some unique interior at one of the bars in Wroclaw, Poland.
Nightlife in Wroclaw focuses on weekends, especially on Friday and Saturday. The party life can also be pulsating in the midweek some places where many students attend.
There are over 100 bars and clubs in Wroclaw, and many of the islands have restaurants with the most amazing riverside views. For party goers as me and my friend, it sounded as music to our ears like a soul to our life. Our energy rose up with the right music and atmosphere, especially when it becomes live. We looked for some live music in the city, and after some searching on Internet, we found some exciting places to go:
Nietota Bar, 50, Kazimierza Wielkiego, 52-007 Wrocław
Beautifully decorated bar. Good vibes. Friendly staff. Live music, DJ's and a dancefloor. Located just a stone's through from the Rynek (Market Square). Unique decor and style including the tables, bar, walls, and ceiling - covered in highly-illustrative original artwork by local artist and set designer Michał Hrisulidis.
Guiness Pub, Plac Solny 5, 50-079 Wrocław,
A fairly large pub spread over three levels with covered outside seating.With a very authentic Irish style interior with dark green painted walls with many items adorning the walls relating to Ireland and a fine marble bar and lots of dark wooden tables and bar stools they also have a cellar part to the Guinness pub which has a similar interior with a strong Irish theme.
Alive, Kolejowa 12, Wrocław:
Live music venue, but do not expect a high brow crowd. Pretty brutal, unfortunately. Good bottled beer selection. Nice atmosphere, maybe a lil bit noir and darkish. The interior design is awesome and the music they play is really good music and oldschool rock.

Wroclaw is a city full of great nightlife. Residence of the city can be proud as Wroclaw was named “European Capital of Culture in 2016”. You might know that depending on the source, around 20-30% of the population in Wroclaw are students.
What is special about Wroclaw? Wrocław features buildings of historical interest, such as the cluster of churches at Ostrów Tumski (“Cathedral Island”), the Gothic town hall, and the Aula Leopoldina, a Baroque assembly hall at Wrocław University. And even more: there are also plenty of pubs and bars. Wroclaw, or, as some like to call it, WrocLOVE, is a city of beautiful architecture and amazing, friendly vibes, but to fully experience this city you must taste the night life.
The combination of diverse music, high-energy venues, and an enthusiastic crowd makes Wroclaw's party scene unforgettable. Whether you're into electronic beats or pop hits, the city's nightlife has something to keep your energy soaring all night long.
