Moscow Nightlife: Culture, Bars and Clubs

Moscow nightlife includes cultural events, restaurants, bars and clubs. To plan a successful evening, choose based on the programme and location: a theatre visit follows a different schedule from a club night or a meal in the city centre.

Theatre, music and events

Opera, ballet, theatre and concerts offer a cultural evening with a set start time and venue. Depending on the programme, the options range from classical stages to contemporary productions.

Bars and clubs

Bars and clubs vary in music, crowd, entry requirements and opening hours. Details about the event and entry arrangements are therefore part of planning a specific evening. The separate page on nightclubs and clubs in Moscow provides additional guidance.

Getting around in the evening

The distance between a restaurant, venue and accommodation affects your evening plans. If you have several stops planned, it helps to group them within one neighbourhood and plan the right Moscow public transport connection.
