A
Apollo Kino & Bar
This cavernous basement joint does double duty as an art-house cinema and a sweaty dance club for the student brigade. Alt-sounds rule on Mondays, salsa on Tuesdays, but on other nights it could be anything from dancehall to disco, house to power pop.

Malteserkeller
Elvin Jones and Bill Ramsey used to be regulars at what was once a venerable jazz venue. Changing tastes and financial realities have translated into an expanded musical menu that includes electro-funk, house, Nu Skool and punk.

Starfish
A cornerstone of Aachen's dance-club scene, Starfish keeps things interesting with four different dance floors playing house and charts, rock and soul. It's about 2.5km northeast of the city centre.

Domkeller
Near the cathedral, this casual pub has drawn students since the 1950s with its woodsy ambience and fair beer prices. In summer, the action spills out onto the sloping, cobble-stoned square.

Aoxomoxoa
This laid-back dance club hums with different music nightly (from rock to Gothic to metal), charges no cover, and numbers cheap drinks and a friendly, mixed clientele among its assets.

Pontstrasse
The main bar-hopping drag is student-flavoured Pontstrasse (locals say Ponte). For listings pick up the free Klenkes in cafés, pubs and the tourist office.
