Entertainment in Veliko Târnovo

  1. A

    Bally

    This new club playing hip-hop and techno has both its supporters and detractors. With its large central dance floor, it can seem empty unless there’s a weekend crowd.

    Cinema Arena

    The latest Hollywood films are on at Cinema Arena in the new shopping centre, Central Mall, which also has a nightclub, bowling alley and casino. (A taxi is the easiest way to get there.) In addition to the mall, the new town, little-visited by tourists, is where many students reside and thus also offers heavy-duty entertainment during term.

    Pepy’s Bar

    [ourpick] Pepy’s Bar If you were an expat in Târnovo, Pepy’s might well be your local. The dark-lit, popular bar doesn’t put on airs like the more studenty places; it’s just a cosy, chilled-out nightspot with subdued style.

    Shekerdzinitsa

    This lovely little café with traditional furnishings in the old market is the place to go for real Turkish coffee –appealingly prepared the old-school way, in a diminutive copper pot run across a basin of heated sand.

    Jack

    This pumping student club for knavish lads and short-skirted girls is named for the American whisky, and is especially popular on weekends with house music and dancing.

    Ulitsata

    To one side of the Hotel Trapezitsa, this is one of Târnovo’s busiest and friendliest cafés, with nice views from the terrace.

    City Pub

    This popular, big British-style pub near the post office and TIC is a bit gimmicky, but usually lively with local students.

    Konstantin Kisimov Dramatic Theatre

    For a spot of theatre, try the Konstantin Kisimov Dramatic Theatre. The Tourist Information Centre can tell you what's on.

    Scream Dance Club

    Another of Târnovo’s popular clubs, Scream is slightly more tasteless but equally studenty.
