Best Nighlife Experiences in Colombo

An Experience that is as Low-Key or as Exciting as You Wish!

A business and financial hub buzzing with quick paced energy during the day, the capital city of Colombo wind down and acquires a different kind of energy as the sunsets and the city lights come on. Any spectator lucky enough to have a panoramic view of the city from a high rise business or residential building at night will be thrilled to witness the gleaming array of lights that illuminate the city in dizzying yet beautiful patterns. While any tourist can explore the architecture and history of the city with a simple Sri Lanka car hire during the day, as the night prowls near, the city takes on a different hue and this nightlife in Colombo is an experience to be had for those visiting Colombo.

Given that driving under the influence is illegal in Sri Lanka and nothing less than a blood alcohol level of zero is tolerated, take the stress out of enjoying the nightlife by opting for cab rides or, simply opt for hiring a vehicle with a chauffeur for the night from the reputed Malkey Rent a Car. With transport arranged, the evening can be as exciting or as low-key as you wish.

It is always best to begin one’s evening with light drinks and a meal to ensure that you are geared up for an eventful night ahead. While establishments such as Cloud Café at Colombo Courtyard, Sugar 41 and 7 Degrees North at Cinnamon Lakeside Hotel are excellent for this purpose, night-owls who may feel lazy to leave and should perhaps opt for Qbaa instead. This is because Qbaa, located in the heart of Colombo, not only serves up stellar drinks and delicious meals, but also books talented local bands to play till the early hours of the morning. On the other hand, for those who wish to indulge in some good club music and dance the night away, Colombo is peppered with nightclubs and one is spoiled for choice. Nightlife in Colombo is diverse and offers up a myriad of experiences: the individual experience to be had, however, is always up to individual taste.
