Club Capone Novosadskog Sajma 35 (Park Hotel),<br />
tel. (+381) 64 927 77 77. Formerly known as Baltazar, this<br />
is probably the best place in town for house music lovers. Its<br />
minimalist interior design is nicely complemented by a huge<br />
bar, almost 15m long, staffed with great bartenders. Club<br />
queues are a frequent sight, and members and regular patrons<br />
are given precedence. Don’t even think of trying to get<br />
in with sneakers or a sweatshirt. Although it is an exclusive<br />
spot in every respect, its prices are moderate, you can get a<br />
glass of whiskey for €2. 4Open 23:00 - 04:00 BGPER<br />
Foxtrot B-2, Futoška 23, tel. (+381) 21 662 29 04.<br />
This wood panelled café is firm favourite with jazz, rock<br />
and blues lovers. Over the day it is a pleasant spot for a<br />
sip of drink whilst reading newspapers, and in the evening<br />
the place gets swinging, its air thick with smoke. Gigs on<br />
weekends. 4Open 08:00 - 23:00, Sat, Sun 08:00 - 01:00.<br />
BP pušači, 6RE<br />
Giardino C-2, Bulevar Mihajla Pupina 1, tel. (+381)<br />
21 489 87 40. A large club with modern décor on the<br />
roof-top of the Bazar shopping mall. Its two stylish open<br />
terraces enjoy stunning views over the town. It is a perfect<br />
place for a relaxed coffee to mark the end of a shopping<br />
spree or to start off a night of club hopping. If you’re not<br />
into club hopping, this is one place where you’ll want to<br />
stay put, particularly on evenings with live music. And if you<br />
get hungry, you can order a variety of light Italian dishes<br />
or some dessert. 4Open 09:00 - 01:00. ABPURE<br />
Martha’s Pub C-2, Laze Telečkog 3, tel. (+381) 21<br />
61 10 38. You will recognise it by the quirky sign above the<br />
entrance saying ‘God save the pumpkins’. Contagious positive<br />
vibes and relaxed atmosphere. One of the best spots to go<br />
out for a drink even if you are on your own, because you will<br />
soon get the feeling that all guests are part of one large happy<br />
crowd. If you are bold enough, try medovača - honey flavoured<br />
brandy. 4Open 10:00 - 23:00, Sat, Sun 10:00 - 01:00. B<br />
Muzej Petrovaradin Fortress, tel.(+381) 21 64 640<br />
79 76. Located in the lower part of the town Museum. Its<br />
wooden flooring, stone bar and semi-circular arches lit by<br />
disco lights make it the most elegant disco in Novi Sad. Each<br />
night will feature a different theme, including gigs, DJ’s events<br />
and retro music. The best time to visit on a weekend is around<br />
01:00. The prices are a little higher than most other places<br />
in town. 4Open 21:00 - 04:00 BPER<br />
New Yard Night Bar Uspenska 18, tel. (+381) 21 52<br />
65 86. This bar, proud to have 23 years of uninterrupted work<br />
on the third shift, is a hard rock and heavy metal hangout. Beer<br />
is the beverage of choice and gigs are fairly frequent. You need<br />
not have any security concerns, the guests are very friendly<br />
and there are no incidents. Open 22:00 - 03:00, Closed Mon,<br />
Tue, Sun. BEL<br />
Route 66 B-3, Bulevar Despota Stefana 5, tel. (+381)<br />
21 635 07 90. A popular club, operating as a café by day,<br />
housed in an airy, warehouse-feeling venue spread over two<br />
levels. It is spacious enough to support sizeable crowds drawn<br />
by pop, rock, jazz and blues gigs (something to suit everyone’s<br />
taste) which start around 23:00. The club sometimes features<br />
DJ events. 4Open 08:00 - 01:00. BRPEL<br />
RST Club B-3, Bulevar despota Stefana 5, tel:<br />
(+381) 21 46 89 76. A nice and unpretentious spot<br />
known for live events almost every night, featuring local<br />
pop and rock or global mainstream hits. The bar and the<br />
Nightlife<br />
stage are on the lower level, and there are comfy chairs<br />
on the upper level to provide a quieter place to chill. While<br />
there are no wild parties, there is plenty of good laid-back<br />
fun. 4Open 08:00 - 01:00. PER<br />
Skipper, Ribarsko ostrvo bb. The club is located on a<br />
boat moored by the Fishing Island (don’t try to get there<br />
on foot, take a taxi). As you dance to electronic music on<br />
its glass-walled upper deck, you will enjoy a great view<br />
of the Danube and the Freedom Bridge. The dance floor<br />
is surrounded with high tables and bar stools. The best<br />
parties are on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. 4Open<br />
23:00 - 03:00. PE<br />
Sterija C-2, Pozorišni trg 1. One of the more popular clubs<br />
in town. Located in the building of the Serbian National Theatre,<br />
it is favourite with the actors. <strong>In</strong> daytime, you can chill out in the<br />
large terrace, but in the evening, the main events take place<br />
inside. There are live performances by local pop and rock bands<br />
almost every night. It does not seem that too much care has<br />
been given to the interior design and the impression is further<br />
marred by a plasma TV hanging on a wall and featuring a local<br />
TV station. It is a universal truth that TV sets in cafés have an<br />
uncanny way of absorbing attention and killing the conversation.<br />
4Open 08:00 - 23:00, Sat, Sun 08:00 - 03:00. BPE<br />
Studio B-2, C-2, Vuka Karadzica 5, tel. (+381) 66<br />
600 1600. One of the most popular club located in the city<br />
centre (with some 22,000 fans and counting on Facebook<br />
as some social media proof), if you manage to squeeze<br />
inside at the weekend you’re more or less guaranteed to<br />
find the place packed with twenty-something Serbians<br />
dancing (and drinking) the night away. However, if you’re<br />
claustrophobic be aware that it’s not the biggest space<br />
and the ceilings are downright low. If you want a table<br />
reservations well in advance are a must. Open Thur-Sat<br />
22:00-03:00. Closed Sun-Wed.<br />
