Dernek (Party Time)

Where to head tonight? Beer lovers are welcomed with open arms at Gastro Pub Vučko (at two locations), Celtic Pub, Fabrika Gastro Pub, and Sarajevsko Pub – Minjon, the home of the iconic local brew. For summer cocktail rhapsodies, pick Blind Tiger, Kawa, or Hemingway's Bar, while premium labels are poured at Delikatesna Radnja, Borbon, and La Cava. To round off your evening route, your tour must include Deco Bar, Opera, Balkan, Akademija, and Hram.

Nights filled with live gigs and dancing till dawn are reserved for the cult club Cinemas Sloga, while Aquarius Vils and City Pub also offer fantastic live lineups. Jazzbina is a sanctuary for jazz, blues, and rock enthusiasts, while Silver & Smoke dictates the uncompromising rhythm of electronic music. Out in Ilidža, YU Cafe is an essential stop. If you want to spice up your night with a laid-back game of pool or darts, drop by Club 69 or Mr. & Mrs. Cue. For a dash of adrenaline and games of chance, there are the premium venues of Admiral, Lutrija BiH, and Coloseum.

DERNEK: In Sarajevo, every great night out turns into a "dernek"—the traditional local term for a massive, spontaneous, and wild party with music and friends. Surrender to the rhythm and don't plan on hitting the sack before dawn!
