Ark Live House
Incongruously located in the yuppie heart of Shanghai, this venue for Chinese bands, generally with an alternative edge, is the best place in town for live music. Weird Japanese acts and the occasional Western band end up here, too. Gigs get going on Friday and Saturday from 21:30, but there are also occasional weekend afternoon concerts.

Malone's
Love it or hate it, this brisk sports bar has been fruitfully ploughing its own furrow for well over a decade. Sitting under the glow of sports TV is a crew of expat society, hunched over beers, fish and chips and serenaded by Filipino bands at weekends.

Door
Craftily presented meeting-ground of Art Deco and Qing-style furniture, this is certainly one of the few local drinking spots which is atmospheric. There is live music from 22:00 (Monday to Saturday).

Oriental Art Center
This futuristic venue stages all manner of concerts, including classical, jazz, dance and opera. In the past it has staged traditional Chinese music on Saturday nights – call for updates.

Yuyintang
Shanghai has a bad rep when it comes to live music, but the venues have improved dramatically in recent years. For home-grown rock, Yuyintang is one of the best.

Melting Pot
The Melting Pot has an eclectic line-up of local musicians every night of the week, and the Taikang Rd locale means it’s often hopping.
