Best International Cities for Bachelor Parties: Cartagena

best international cities for bachelor parties

Cartagena, nestled on Colombia’s Caribbean coast, has become known as one of the best cities for bachelor parties in South America. Known for its colonial charm, luxurious villas, tropical weather, and electrifying nightlife, Cartagena offers a perfect mix of relaxation, party, and excitement. Imagine starting your day on a yacht, cruising the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean. Crank up the music and party all day long on an island-hopping tour of the Rosario Islands from the privacy of your own boat. Park in Cholón or near Playa Blanca amongst the other party boats and crack open a bottle for the lucky groom. Once you get back to land, chill out at your private villa before heading out to the Old City to party with the lads.

Bachelor Party Ideas in Cartagena 

Renting a private villa in Cartagena for your bachelor party is a no-brainer. You get a private rooftop terrace, pool, and plenty of space to party with your crew all night long. There are also plenty of restaurants in Cartagena that are all within walking distance if you are staying in the walled city or Getsemani. The city is also steeped in history and culture. If you pass by Parque Bolivar at around 6 pm you can watch dancers showcase traditional cumbia and mapale – an African dance that is unique to the Afro-Colombian community.

Nightlife in Cartagena for Bachelor Parties

Once the scorching Caribbean sun sets over Cartagena, the city comes alive. Cartagena is a city that likes to party every day of the week.

Medellín, the city of eternal spring, is another popular choice for a bachelor party. If you travel from the US, you will find that bachelor parties in Colombia are cheaper than they are in the States. Medellín is known for its pleasant spring-like climate all year round, as well as its stunning panoramas and buzzing nightlife.

Bachelor Party in Medellín 

Much like Cartagena, Medellín also boasts some incredible private villas and penthouses to rent for the duration of your stay. Rent a place in El Poblado and ensure you are close to all the action. We particularly recommend Manila, a small but chic neighborhood inside el Poblado where you can find a ton of cool bars and restaurants. We even have our own Airbnb there, complete with hot tub equipped with modern amenities. There’s also plenty to do in Medellín city and the surrounding areas. Take a trip out to the countryside to try your hand at ATV racing or paragliding. Or stay in the city and try all the culinary delights that Medellín has to offer. You can check our blog with recommendations for restaurants in Medellín.

Bachelor Party Packages in Medellin 

We love making your life easier. And in a big, sprawling city like Medellín, it’s much better to have a concierge who can help you plan your trip and lighten the load of planning.

Need a buddy in Medellin to help you with all the heavy lifting? Our concierge is more than happy to arrange everything for you, from making reservations to buying groceries.

Nightlife in Medellin 

Medellín’s nightlife is legendary. The Poblado district is at the heart of the city’s nightlife scene. Parque Lleras and Provenza are the two most popular neighborhoods for partying in Medellin. From intimate, vinyl-playing cocktail bars to multi-floor mega clubs, Medellin has something for everyone. It is known as one of the top bachelor party spots for good reason.

Best International Cities for Bachelor Parties: Mexico City

bachelor party destinations

Mexico City is massively growing in popularity as one of the hottest destinations for a bachelor party. There is so much to do in this culture-rich city. Mexico City offers a unique blend of tradition and modernity not to mention the gastronomy, which is top of its class, from street tacos to fine dining restaurants.

Where to go for a Bachelor Party in Mexico City 

When in Mexico, why not embrace all things Mexican? And you can’t get more traditional than a boat party on a trajinera in the Xochimilco district. It’s a boat party like no other you’ve experienced before; eat, drink, and sing with mariachi bands aboard a colorful gondola-style boat amongst the canals of Mexico City. Lucha Libre is another unmissable cultural experience to be had in Mexico City. This Mexican wrestling tradition makes for a super fun night out with the boys.

Mexico City: The Ultimate Foodie Destination 

What better way of exploring Mexico City than through your stomach? Surprise the groom with a taco tour! Bring a good appetite as you are taken around town to try the best and most authentic tacos in CDMX. And you can’t possibly come to the land of tequila and mezcal without trying them all in a tasting tour. Head to the Museum of Tequila and Mezcal for a historical tour, or even better, have our concierge arrange a tequila and mezcal tasting to be brought to the comfort of your Airbnb.

Mexico City Nightlife for bachelor parties

bachelor party destinations

Mexico City’s nightlife is unparalleled. Aside from being much more affordable than any other bachelor party or boys’ trip in the US, it also makes for a super fun night out. The neighborhoods of Condesa and Roma are where it’s at. Condesa is upscale, yet laid-back, and boasts a wide variety of bars and clubs, from rooftop bars to intimate speakeasies. Roma has a bohemian vibe and is a super picturesque place to party the night away. Polanco is another high-end neighborhood in Mexico City that’s great for partying. Check out our blog post on Mexico City Nightlife to get the best insider tips. All the culture and variation to be found in Mexico City make it one of the top bachelor party cities internationally.

Pros and Cons of hosting your bachelor party in Mexico City

  • World-renowned cuisine
  • Extensive nightlife options

  • Mexico City is a large, bustling city and can be overwhelming
  • Air quality and traffic can be challenging 

Bachelor Party in Ibiza 

bachelor party destinations

If you’re looking for a more classic European bachelor party (and if your bank balance allows), you might consider Ibiza for your bachelor party. Ibiza is an iconic party island and has been a famous bachelor party destination for years. Much like Cartagena, the majority of the activities in Ibiza are based around the beaches or water activities. Going to a boat party is probably one of the most popular activities to do on the island for bachelor groups.

Nightlife in Ibiza 

bachelor party destinations

Partying in Ibiza is famous throughout the entire world. Certainly not cheap, you are promised some of the most memorable nights of your life. For clubs, check out Pacha or Amnesia, or take a town bar crawl and visit different places along the strip. And who said partying could only happen at night? In Ibiza, we party all day too, at beach clubs such as O-Beach, where you can get your drink and tan on at the same time.

Pros and Cons of hosting your bachelor party in Ibiza, Spain 

Pros:

  • World-renowned nightlife and clubs
  • Stunning beaches 
  • Plenty of daytime activities like boat trips and rentals 

Cons:

  • Ibiza is famously expensive, so you will have to budget a lot for this trip
  • Ibiza can get very crowded, especially during high season 
  • There are a lot of travel logistics involved in getting to Ibiza, especially if you are traveling from the US

Bachelor Party in Las Vegas 

bachelor party destinations

Another emblematic bachelor party destination is Las Vegas. As they say, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. If you and your crew are fans of gambling or are simply feeling lucky, you can hit the casinos and see if you can win back the cost of the trip. Top tip: bring cash only and leave your bank cards back at the hotel!

Legendary Nightlife in Las Vegas 

Nightlife in Las Vegas is like no other. In typical American style, everything is bigger, better, and bolder. Omnia, on the Vegas Strip, is an epic 75,000-square-foot nightclub, where famous DJs often play. Or you could check out Cirque du Soleil’s legendary comedy burlesque show, which leaves little to the imagination. You can also practice your poker face at the Bellagio if you dare.

Pros and Cons of hosting your bachelor party in Las Vegas  

Pros:

  • You can find 24/7 entertainment in Las Vegas. It is truly the city that never sleeps. 
  • There are plenty of luxurious accommodation options in Las Vegas.

Cons:

  • A bachelor party in Las Vegas is guaranteed to be an expensive affair for everyone involved. Not for those on a tighter budget.
  • There is a big focus on gambling, so if this isn’t your and your group’s idea of a good time, you might be better suited to a different place.
  • If you’re looking for a more chill, relaxing escape, Vegas isn’t your place. Everything can get very crowded and noisy, especially near the famous Strip.

Best International Cities for Bachelor Parties: Final Insights

Choosing the best international city for bachelor parties involves considering what each destination has to offer. Choose Cartagena if you like tropical, beach-focused activities in a picturesque, colonial surrounding. Choose Medellín if you prefer a bigger city with access to stunning countryside and an unparalleled nightlife scene.

Best Rooftop Bars in Medellin

Best Medellín rooftop bars
Coracao Rooftop

Nestled in a valley in the Andean mountains, Medellín boasts some of the best views in Colombia. Many local businesses have taken advantage of these rolling hills and the temperate climate to take things al-fresco, to the rooftops. Whether you are there to party, drink, or eat, be sure to check out our favorite recommendations for the best rooftops in Medellín.

Something we love about a good rooftop is versatility. A good rooftop bar can literally see you through from brunch to the early hours of the morning. It’s great to appreciate a good sunset from a rooftop (and in Medellín, you see the most stunning sunsets). There’s also something magical about the city at night from above; thousands of lights twinkling below you like fireflies.

Whether you are visiting Medellín with your partner, with friends, or even with your bachelorette or bachelor group, you are sure to fall in love with this enchanting city and its stunning views.

Envy Rooftop (The Charlee Hotel, Parque Lleras)

Envy Rooftop is the place to see and be seen in Medellín. This luxurious rooftop bar is located on top of the gorgeous Charlee Hotel. You can find it in the heart of the nightlife district; Lleras Park, Poblado. Built on two levels with an aquarium-style pool in the middle, the views are just as good inside as they are out. Grab one of the best cocktails in Medellín and some fresh sushi and admire the beautiful people. Then, when the sun starts to set behind the mountains, take in the beauty of the twinkling lights of the city below you. It truly is one of the best rooftops in Medellín. 

Envy has something to offer every day of the week; enjoy live music on Salsa Wednesdays and a live DJ the rest of the week. Don’t forget to visit Envy on the last Sunday of the month for its famous boozy bottomless brunch. Take the word “brunch” with a pinch of salt, as the kitchen opens from 5 PM onwards, which gives you plenty of time for a lie-in. You can take a dip in the pool or chill at the bar, just don’t miss this chic spot on your trip to Medellín.

Náufrago (Click Clack Hotel, Poblado)

best rooftops in medellin

Perched on top of the Click Clack Hotel, Náufrago isn’t just for hotel guests. Head to Náufrago for cocktails and delicious food in an urban jungle setting. Imagine yourself dipping your toes in the rooftop pool whilst sipping on an Aperol Spritz… yes, this is the lifestyle you deserve! At Náufrago, they have a live DJ who pumps out the best tunes.

Fish and seafood are imported from Isla Fuerte, a nearby island in the Colombian Caribbean. The menu is inspired by coastal recipes all throughout Latin America. Travel, through their menu, from the Gulf of Mexico to the Colombian Pacific, to the coasts of Peru.

We love the unpretentiousness of this rooftop oasis. Make use of their comfy loungers and take in the gorgeous Medellín skyline. Náufrago is open from midday until late, every day of the week.

Mosquito Rooftop (The Somos Hotel, Poblado)

If you want an all-encompassing place that promises excellent quality service from breakfast to midnight cocktails, head to Mosquito Rooftop. From mind-blowing brunches to getting down and dirty on the dance floor, this is the place to be. The rooftop at Mosquito offers panoramic views of Medellín, where you can surely lock in many Medellín core memories. This stunning Medellín skyline is actually the backdrop to the DJ booth. It undoubtedly makes for an unforgettable night as you explore Medellín’s nightlife. We love the oasis vibe with the rooftop lined with greenery.

Want to explore more of Medellín’s nightlife – come bar hopping with us and then on to a VIP Club Night!

Teatro Victoria Roof Garden (Provenza, Poblado)

Teatro Victoria bar Medellin

Located in trendy Provenza, Teatro Victoria is right in the heart of the action. Victoria Roof Garden has a chic and contemporary vibe. It’s our favorite of the four ambiences in the Teatro Victoria nightclub because taking in the freshness of the Medellín night on a rooftop is far superior to being stuck inside a sweaty club.

Don’t arrive too late for the chance to dine. They have an extensive menu of mouthwatering dishes. The menu showcases both local and international flavors; from soft bao, to fresh sushi, to exquisitely prepared meat and fish dishes. You can also find an impressive selection of craft cocktails at the bar.

ENE Restobar Hookah Lounge (Provenza, Poblado)

Ene Restobar Hookah Lounge in Medellín is a must-visit destination for those seeking a unique rooftop experience combined with a touch of Middle Eastern flair. It’s the perfect place to visit with a Medellín bachelor party group. Pull up a seat and share a hookah amongst friends. It’s one of our favorite pre-game spots, but also a place to chill when you don’t feel like going “out-out”. They have a delectable menu, featuring international dishes and dishes to share. We loved the crab and shrimp nachos and their specialty; the ENE fries with cheese, beef, and bacon. Bring your appetite!

Belisario (Provenza, Poblado)

If you’re looking for both a taste of Medellín nightlife and a taste of some of the best food and cocktails in Medellín, head on down to Belisario. The menu is Mexican, but it’s so much more than tacos. Sure, you can get some of the best tacos of your life here, but open your mind and imagination to beef tenderloin flambéed in tequila. Or perhaps we can tempt you with a mezcal and hibiscus cocktail. Truly heaven on earth! Afterwards, you can pop behind the bookshelf to the hidden club, La Oculta. We sang its praises in our Medellín Nightlife blog post.

360° Rooftop Bar (Hotel Haven, Poblado)

360° Rootop Bar Medellin

The rooftop bar on the top of Hotel Haven has, as its name promises, a breathtaking 360° view of Medellín. On the 11th floor of Hotel Haven, it’s the highest rooftop on our list. 360 Rooftop bar knows how to host a party. They will frequently have pool parties (in the heated pool!), electronic parties, neon nights, and their Sunday Funday brunch. Brunch is a perfect excuse for a party – especially when it’s all-you-can-eat from 11 AM to 4 PM! Lounge in the pool, grab some sliders and an artisan cocktail, and put the fun in your Sunday! Brunch is also only 20 bucks, which is an absolute steal.

Even more Medellín rooftop bars!

Rooftop Bars in Medellin
NDN Rooftop

With so many fun, innovative, and exciting rooftop options in Medellín, it’s hard to choose where to visit. But believe us, any of the places mentioned above guarantee you a night to remember. We also wanted to give an honorary mention to Mamba Negra restaurant in Q Tower (el Poblado) for flawless gastronomy and some of the best cocktails in Medellín. To Curacao, a fantastic bar sat atop the Selvario 36 hotel, and NDN (Provenza, el Poblado) for its romantic mountain views, and impeccable service.

From trendy modern establishments to charming hidden gems, the rooftop bars in Medellín provide an unforgettable setting to unwind, soak up the vibrant atmosphere, and create lasting memories against the backdrop of this dynamic Colombian city.

These are just some of our favorite rooftops in Medellín. If you want more personalized advice or you’re planning a group trip, get in touch, and we can plan your journey together, or read on for our FAQs on Medellín nightlife.

Medellín Nightlife FAQs

Have a burning question about nightlife in Medellín and didn’t know who to ask? No worries, we are locals, and we got you, boo!

How much does a cocktail typically cost in Medellín? 

Cocktails in Medellín are a fine art form. Talented mixologists work hard to produce delicious cocktails that satisfy all the senses. Glassware in Medellín is trending, so don’t be surprised if you are handed a wooden totem, a bronze goblet, or even a porcelain skull to drink from. Flowers, dry ice, and fruit garnishes add to the extravagance of the experience. Expect to pay from $45.000 COP to $55.000 COP (around $10 USD) for a cocktail.

What time do people go out drinking and dancing?

In Medellín, the nightlife scene typically starts to pick up around 9 PM, especially on weekends. People often gather at bars and lounges during this time to socialize and pre-game. But between 10 PM and 2 AM is when you will see most people in the streets and bars. During these hours, Provenza and Parque Lleras come alive with energy and music. It’s common for people to transition from bars to clubs later in the evening, with many clubs staying open until the early morning hours.

What time do places typically close in Medellín?

Generally, bars and lounges in el Poblado close around 2 AM. However, there are also venues that stay open later, particularly clubs that may continue operating until 4 AM or even later, especially on weekends. Just ask us where to go and we’ll do the rest – we can even make sure you have transport home! 

What is the dress code for going out in Medellín?

The streets of Provenza at night are a catwalk for the young and beautiful – even more so in July and August when the fashion shows hit town. Medellín weather at night is cool enough to warrant a light jacket or jeans, but will also be fine for a dress and heels.

Paisas, or locals to Medellín, love to dress up, and you will often see women with a full face of makeup and a stunning waterfall of shiny hair. Men go for the smart-casual look; jeans or chinos with a shirt or polo. Make sure to bring your A-game, and don’t forget that some nicer restaurants and clubs have a strict dress code. That means no caps, no sneakers or sliders, no sandals and no shorts (for guys).

It’s always a good idea to check the dress code of a specific venue beforehand. Or, if you purchased our concierge services, you can just double-check with your concierge agent before they make your reservation for you!

Is Medellín safe at night?

Medellín has made huge strides in recent years with regard to safety. However, it’s always a good idea to have your wits about you, as with any big city. When traveling, use a reputable cab app such as Uber or Didi, rather than a local taxi, especially at night, or talk to us and we’ll arrange a private driver for your whole trip. It will also allow you to skip the language barrier if you still need to brush up on your español. 

We recommend you don’t use Tinder to meet people. But if you are going to meet up with someone you met on Tinder or a dating app, get a photo of their ID beforehand and keep someone updated on your whereabouts, just in case.

Colombians are known for their phrase “no dar papaya”, which literally translates to “don’t give papaya”. What it means, however, is to avoid attracting unnecessary attention by flashing expensive jewelry or valuables. You can leave that at home and still look fly on the dance floor.

And remember that super fancy cocktail you bought? Don’t leave it unattended (it’s too good to go to waste, anyway). By taking these simple steps, you can enjoy the vibrant nightlife of Medellín with peace of mind.

Medellín is a city of hedonism and parties. So enjoy all the fun from a bird’s-eye view, on top of some of the best rooftop bars in Medellín. Whether you’re there for a boozy brunch, or dancing your heart out until the small hours, get some fresh air with those fresh vibes.

It’s the perfect warm up, before we head to the 17,000 seat stadium for an evening of Mexican wrestling.  You’ll be close to the action, cheering on the iconic masked wrestlers (or luchadores) as good wrestles evil in a high energy spectacle.  The atmosphere cannot be beaten, and we’ll make sure you have masks, drinks, pizza and chicharrón (salty pork scratchings!) to accompany this wild night of sporting prowess.

A bachelor party in Medellin is guaranteed to include incredible nightlife, accommodation fit for a king (and party friendly!), and adventure activities that will get your adrenaline pumping. Not to mention, Medellin also happens to be the home to some of the most beautiful women in the world. But you can tell your wife that it’s a casual coincidence. Medellin has enormous, multi-story nightclubs and swanky, speakeasy-style bars. It also has a wide variety of private villas for you and your group to crash or party in private.  It is truly one of the best bachelor party destinations. The weather is a perfect 80°F (26°C) all year round, keeping you feeling fresh and not sweaty. All you need now is someone to help you plan the whole trip! That’s where we come in. 

A Travel Concierge: Your key to the city 

Planning a bachelor party isn’t easy. And managing a group of unruly guys, finding decent accommodation, reliable transportation, and making restaurant reservations in Spanish, all while trying to have fun is even harder. That’s why we love to make everything as easy as possible for you. Many AirBnBs and hotels in the city don’t accept large groups of all guys. We have direct contact with the owners of many private villas in Medellin, and we can do all the talking, so all you will need to do is show up. Fancy a personal chef to whip up breakfast every day, or treat you to a restaurant-quality meal from the comfort of your own villa? Want to organize a private pool party? We are expert bachelor party planners. We have private chefs on speed dial, along with DJs, and everything you would expect from a bachelor party. 

Fancy hiring someone to do all the boring work, so you can enjoy every moment? That’s what we’re here for! Get in touch with our concierge team today to get a quote for our services.

Activities for your bachelor party in Medellin 

A good bachelor’s weekend (or week!) needs to have activities planned for both daytime and evening. There’s no time to sit around nursing a hangover with so many activities to do in Medellin and its surrounding areas. The great thing about Medellin is that it is a big, metropolitan city, surrounded by beautiful countryside. So whether you want something outdoorsy or simply want to soak up city life, there is something for everyone. 

Day Activities 

Check out our Tours & Experiences page for more information on just some of the activities you and the guys can do for your bachelor party in Medellin. The Comuna 13 Tour is an amazing way to see the “other” side of the city. Twenty years ago it was a no-go zone, and it’s now a thriving art and culture scene. Comuna 13 is a great place to explore during the day. You can check out the stunning graffiti, try some street food, and even rap-battle the local kids there, as they love interacting with tourists.  

Or escape the city to visit the idyllic countryside and picturesque town of Guatapé. Home to an incredible naturally-formed volcanic rock that has a massive 708 steps to the top, it’s an unmissable photo opportunity. The Peñón de Guatapé is unique in the world, and climbing all those stairs makes for great bonding with the guys. The groom is sure to reach his wedding day in good shape!

Think there’s nothing scarier than getting married? You obviously haven’t tried paragliding. Get that adrenaline pumping, and soar like a bird over stunning green pastures near Colombia’s coffee region. This exhilarating experience will make you feel so alive and is sure to blow away the cobwebs of the routine of daily life. Or you can take advantage of the rough terrains of the countryside and go out on an ATV adventure. This is one of our most popular bachelor party activities. There’s no experience needed, and the trails have varying difficulty levels. Take a walk on the wild side and explore Colombia on a quad bike! 

Night-time activities 

When the sun sets, it’s time to play. Medellin offers a huge range of things to do in the evenings, namely in the form of bars, restaurants, and clubs. Medellin’s nightlife scene is absolutely buzzing. Check out some of our favourite restaurants in Medellin. There are some truly incredible places to visit, worthy of the special event you are celebrating. Make sure to bring some smarter clothes and shoes if you are heading to a nice restaurant or club. Many places have dress codes, and we would hate for you to miss out.

If private parties are more your jam, we’ve got everything you need to make it happen. From the party-friendly penthouse to the sound system, to the VIP guests. Did we mention our legendary pool parties? Our private barman can mix a mean cocktail, and we can even get you vitamin IV therapy to aid recovery the day after.

Luckily, we did the hard work for you and scoped out the best clubs and nightlife in town, so your Medellin bachelor party is truly epic!

Top Tips for Your Bachelor Party 

You may be wondering where the best place to stay is with your bachelor party in Medellin. El Poblado is a popular and convenient option, as it is right in the middle of the action. You can find many bachelor pads and penthouses in Poblado and near the famous Lleras Park. You can literally step right out of your apartment or villa and find some of the best bars, clubs and restaurants in the city. There are also some other more exclusive locations in Medellin, such as Alto de las Palmas. This sought-after neighborhood is a little further up the mountain and boasts stunning views over the valley. Its location allows for a little more privacy, and the absence of neighbors in some villas means that the parties can be bigger, better, and louder!

Private pool
Casa Serena, one of the villas we offer in Medellin

Speaking of accommodation; you will want to make sure you book accommodations early. The best villas and penthouses can get booked up, especially during peak season (generally December through March). We have exclusive access to elite properties that aren’t on Airbnb, so lock in your property with us as early as possible. Unlike Cartagena, where most of the touristic areas are condensed within a smaller radius, Medellin is a sprawling city. Transportation is an important consideration for you and your bachelor group. For big groups, hiring a bigger van that fits all of you can often be more cost-effective than paying for separate taxis.

With so many moving parts involved in planning your bachelor party in Medellin, it’s best to leave the bachelor party planning to the experts. We can arrange from the smallest detail to the most extravagant adventure. Our goal is to make sure you and your group have the best time ever, and that your bachelor party is memorable for all the right reasons.

Bachelor Party in Medellin or Cartagena?

After reading this, and our Cartagena Bachelor & Bachelorette Party Ideas page, you might be unsure of which destination is best for you. If you are looking for a Miami-style, beach vacay at a fraction of the cost, Cartagena is calling you. Think yacht parties, Colonial mansions, and private islands. If you prefer big-city vibes and cooler climes, head to Medellin. In Medellin, you can find a bigger variety of clubs and bars, more adventure activities, and more beautiful women. The choice is yours.

Whichever city you end up choosing. You and your group are sure to have the time of your lives. But don’t take our word for it! Check out a testimonial from one of our clients. This client used Two Travel to plan his friend’s Bachelor Party in Medellin. They were a large group of 14 people and wanted to pack as many activities into 4 days. Here’s an extract from his review:  

“If Two Travel is operating in a city I travel to, I will 100% be using them to make sure I have the best experience possible.
In addition to making sure all of the planned events were executed and handled with exceptional detail, we were lucky to have Daniel O. with us the entire trip. Especially on nights we went out and experienced the nightlife, having Daniel with us was priceless. If Daniel is with your crew, you basically have the most well-connected person in Medellin. He knows everyone in Medellin / Provenza area and regardless of your group’s vibe he knows the perfect spot. Outside of that, he was amazing at accommodating last-minute requests and making sure our group was safe at all times.”

Medellin Nightlife – the Best Places to Party in Medellin

There has never been a better time to visit Medellín, Colombia. This vibrant, international city has recently been awarded 3rd best city to visit in the world by Time Out magazine. While we are proud of this achievement, we are by no means surprised. Alongside impressive architecture, sleek startups, and incredible gastronomy, Medellín’s nightlife has been internationally recognized as being one of the best in the world. 

Medellín is the birthplace of famous Reggaeton and pop artists J Balvin, Karol G, and Maluma. Next time you find yourself singing along to “Provenza” by Karol G, you’ll realize that she is singing about the famous party neighborhood frequented by the young and beautiful crowd of Medellín. There is so much to be discovered in Medellín at night. But with so many bars and clubs in Medellín, it’s often difficult to know where to head first.

Let us plan your unforgettable Medellin trip. We have access to all the best VIP tables, clubs, and events!

Where is the nightlife in Medellín?

Medellin at night

El Poblado (Parque Lleras and Provenza)

From Hipster to High-Class, for a perfect Medellin night

The majority of the best clubs and bars in Medellin are located in el Poblado, a vast and affluent central neighborhood. As el Poblado is so big, you’ll want to be specific about where you’re headed, so make sure you keep this guide at hand. The famous Parque Lleras is a Medellín nightlife must-see. Here, you can find a ton of bars, restaurants, and clubs. It’s a great place to wander around to start your night and soak up the party mood. Parque Lleras is a tree-lined square filled with people, music, and mischief. It is the beating heart of Medellín´s nightlife, with a high density of clubs and bars. At night, the atmosphere is electric.

Our personal preference, however, is to go out to clubs a little more off the beaten track than right in central Lleras. For example, Provenza is a smaller locality, situated within el Poblado. Just a stone’s throw from Parque Lleras, Provenza is definitely the place to see and be seen. Expect classier vibes compared to Lleras. From hipster hole-in-the-wall bars to three-storey clubs, there is something for everyone in this trendy neighborhood. Prices are higher in some of the better clubs and bars compared to other neighborhoods, as good taste doesn’t come cheap. Provenza and Lleras, and everything in between, are often teeming with foreigners and Colombians alike, as they are some of the most touristic spots in Medellín, but for good reason. Here, you will find stylish decor and banging tunes, from Latino beats to EDM.

Laureles

La 70 – For an authentic Colombian fiesta

If you want something less gringo and more Colombian, head to Laureles. In La 70, or “La Setenta”, as it is locally known, you are sure to find a lot of color, lights, and dancing. Here, booze is cheaper and there are fewer foreigners. Step out of your comfort zone and take a salsa class. Two left feet? Not a problem, the paisas (locals from Medellín) are so friendly, you’re sure to find a friendly Colombiana (or Colombiano) to teach you some new moves. La 70 is the center of the Laureles party scene, and it’s an awesome place for bar-hopping. While some bars and clubs in Provenza and Poblado can give European / American vibes, parties in this neighborhood are undoubtedly Colombian.

Las Palmas

For a more exclusive vibe

If you want to try something different away from the masses, yet still experience some incredible local clubs, we highly recommend a night out in Las Palmas. This neighborhood is just a short taxi ride from El Poblado, yet you are sure to have a super fun nightlife experience away from the masses. Las Palmas, also an incredible location for exclusive villas and apartments, is at a higher altitude, so the temperature is cooler than in Poblado. Here, enjoy beautiful views of the Medellín valley at night as the entire city sparkles beneath you.

Okay, so now we know the hottest areas to head in Medellin at night. But where exactly should you go? What follows are just a few of our Medellín nightlife recommendations. If you want a whole weekend planned, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Vintrash Bar

Vintrash is an upcycled club providing four floors of fun. Right in the heart of Provenza, it attracts a good mix of locals and foreigners. You can enjoy various ambiances; from indie, to Latin, to electronic. Head up to the rooftop to cool down after a long night’s dancing. They also serve food, which makes it a great place to start your night and line your stomach before a heavy night out on the town. We love taking bachelor and bachelorette groups to Vintrash because it’s a great place to go wild, and a guaranteed fun night out.

Where?: Cra. 35 #8A-39, El Poblado (Provenza)

They have a live DJ and their lounge playlists are perfect for chilling before a big night out. 

Where?: Calle 9a #37-16, El Poblado

La Oculta Medellín

Do you ever wonder where the young locals go to party? What if we told you it was in a speakeasy-style joint, hidden behind a bookshelf? La Oculta is, like its name suggests, hard to find, but a total gem once you get in. This intimate club is small but perfectly formed, and its glittering chandelier adds a boujee touch to your night. Great to share a bottle of whiskey with a group of friends and listen to local Latin beats.

La Tienda de la 70

Although “tienda” technically translates to store, La Tienda de la 70 is so much more than a neighborhood store. With quintessentially paisa decorations and music, coming to this bar is more of a cultural experience than anything else. Embrace the stereotype and order a bottle of aguardiente – or guaro as the locals call it – and you’ll find yourself dancing on the tables in no time.

Where?: Bulevar Libertadores De América (Carrera 70), Laureles, Medellín

Many villas feature exquisite 19th century architecture, private pools, rooftop views, and even dedicated staff.

Rent a Private Island

If you really want to treat yourself to something special, you may want to consider renting one of the many private Cartagena islands!

Our top choice for renting an island are the Rosario Islands, Cartagena – about an hour off shore of the city. These islands offer secluded white sand beaches, exotic palm trees, crystal blue waters, and stunning sunsets.

Surrounded by coral reefs, the Rosario Islands are as close as you can get to heaven on earth. They’re the perfect backdrop for a tropical bachelorette party, an unforgettable stag weekend, or even a joint bachelor and bachelorette party.

Isla Fragata

The best thing about renting a private island? It’s all yours, so you can do whatever you like, whenever you like. Throw a giant party. Stroll through tropical gardens. Relax on the beach. Go kayaking or jet skiing on the ocean.

Our private island rentals accommodate from 10 guests and come with a full staff who will cook and clean daily.

Take a Yacht to the Islands

Rent a Boat in Cartagena

Whether you stay at a private villa, rent an island, or opt for a resort vacation, there’s one Cartagena activity you definitely won’t want to miss out on: yachting!

If you want to enjoy a good party while taking in some breathtaking sights, renting a private yacht, speedboat or catamaran is the perfect solution for your stagette or bucks party.

As Cartagena is located right on the southern coast of the Caribbean Sea, you can board your boat directly from the Old Town. Then spend the day exploring the islands and coral reefs of Cholon, Playa Blanca, and the Islas de Rosario.

Finish the day off by watching the majesty of a Caribbean sunset on board before heading back to shore.

Too busy to think about preparing food while partying? If you rent a yacht with Two Travel, we can provide catering onboard. We’ll make sure you have everything you need to make the most of your day on the sea! Find out more about the best way to explore the islands.

Rent A Boat

Go Clubbing

If you’re idea of the perfect bachelor party entertainment involves drinking and nightlife, Cartagena has some fantastic options! This city boasts a vibrant club scene complete with craft cocktails, dancing, and even live music for some special events.

If you want to enjoy some classic clubbing in a stylish setting, try out La Jugada. This club features up-cycled interiors, craft cocktails, and a dance-ready playlist. If you book a table here, come prepared for a stylish crowd and be sure to dress with an appropriate amount of class. It’s a local favorite, so spending an evening at La Jugada is a great way to experience the culture of Cartagena.

Cocktails and Clubbing in Cartagena

For an unforgettable and unique nightlife experience, head to Alquímico in the Historic Walled City. This innovative club features inventive cocktails, liquor infusions, and a menu that draws from local recipes and fresh ingredients. The menu isn’t the only reason to visit Alquimico, though! This club features a gorgeous art-deco cocktail bar on the ground floor, a roof terrace with city views upstairs, and a DJ curated playlist that features a variety of trendy music styles.

The newest (and coolest) kid on the block right now is Casa Cruxada. By day, you’ll find delicious food in the two restaurants on the ground floor. By night, the place is transformed with additional floors and rooms opened up for you to explore. This club / bar / restaurant is in an enormous, crumbling Colonial building that feels like it is coming apart at the seams, in the best way possible.

Dine out – best for group parties

No Cartagena bachelorette or bachelor party would be complete without a dining experience at one of the city’s famous restaurants.

Lobo de mar

Visit Carmen for an intimate dining experience with a menu that features contemporary cuisine and authentic Colombian flavors. At Lobo Del Mar, you’ll find innovative cocktails and gastronomic creations inspired by classic Caribbean flavors and locally sourced seasonal ingredients.

For a bachelor or bachelorette party, we also love La Unica for a quality Mexican experience. It has a fun, playful vibe and has great music – from in-house DJs to live mariachi bands – incredible food, and of course a range of tequilas. Or head up to the rooftop at Buena Vida. It’s a stylish but truly Cartagenero seafood restaurant with an impressive cocktail menu, wonderful food and live music from some excellent local bands and DJs.

MORE RESTAURANT RECOMMENDATIONS

A Cartagena Bachelor Party or Bachelorette Beach Day

Why wait until the evening to party? In Cartagena, you can dance at any time of day or night, and we love to dance on the beach! Don’t stay on the mainland. The best beaches and beach clubs are on nearby Tierra Bomba island or further out in the Rosario Islands.

For bachelorettes, try Blue Apple Beach – not only is the food and drink spectacular, but the service is always special for brides to be. If you want a dance lesson, they will always say yes. Lounge by the pool or on the beach, and if you have time, get a massage from the in-house masseuse team. You will not leave disappointed.

For bachelors, head out to Bora Bora in the Rosario Islands. Every day is a party at this famous and very popular beach club. Another option is to take an ATV tour in north Cartagena along some of the longest beaches in the city. It’s the perfect morning adventure activity for any bachelor group spending the weekend in Cartagena.
