Clubs<br />

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 />
