COOL THINGS IN JAPAN YOU MUST SEE

The best nightclubs in Havana are legendary. Some have been around since the 1930s — a few longer than that — and they are still utterly cool.

Read on to learn where to go for the best music, dance and vibe in Havana today and where to experience the best Cuban nightlife.

El Malecon is not a Havana nightclub, but it might as well be. It is the Havana seawall that hugs the city on the northern side often referred to as Havana’s living room.

El Malecon

Cabaret Parisien is a flashy floorshow with all the sequins, fish-net stockings, voluminous gowns and impossibly busy headresses you’d expect from a Vegas production. But all with a very Cuban vibe.

Le Parisienne

Definitely one of the best nightclubs in Havana. This is a place to wander with a drink in hand. Sway on the dancefloor, peruse the quirky art galleries for great photo ops.

La Fabrica de Arte Cubana (FAC) or, Cuban Art Factory

This is an ideal location to mix with locals, grab a meal, kick back with a cold beer and enjoy talent sure to be a big name in the near future. Don’t miss this one for a deep dive into Cuban nightlife.

Coco Blue y la Zorra Peluda

This legendary bar is the oldest in Cuba and, some say, the oldest continuously operating bar in Latin America founded in 1817. Situated at the beginning of Old Havana right by pedestrianized Calle Obispo, El Floridita is a must-visit.

El Floridita

El Floridita is primarily famous for two things; it is where the universally know daiquiri cocktail was first perfected. I say perfected because it was invented in the eastern Cuban mining town of Daiquiri.
