Club entertainment in Finland

  1. A

    Roy Club

    This friendly bar has a sedate, comfortable top half with relaxing vine stencils, cosy seating, a very cheap happy hour until 1am nightly, and well-attended Monday karaoke. There’s also a downstairs nightclub that gets cheerily boisterous with students and goes late.

  2. Kino

    Formerly a cinema, this spacious venue is now a popular club for the young, cheerful and mortgage-less. The music is far from groundbreaking, treading a line between disco, Eurodance and bubblehead pop, but it's a happy place to be.

    Kaarlenholvi Jumpru Pub

    This Oulu institution is a great place for meeting locals. It has an enclosed terrace, a perennial favourite, and a warren of cosy rooms inside, as well as a nightclub that opens at 22:00 Wednesday to Saturday.

  4. O'Nelson's

    Then there's this lively, Irish-style pub at the Kaupunginhotelli. At weekends the around €5 entry includes admission to the inaccurately named but entertaining Paradise, a well-attended upstairs disco.

    Otava

    This likeable Finnish dance club is the place for tango and humppa (Finnish jazz) music. Otava II, just around the corner, is more of a drinking pub that attracts serious barflies.
