    Arena Coliseo

    Watching masked luchadores (wrestlers) with names like El Terrible and Casanova gut-punching each other makes for a memorable night out. Expect scantily clad women, insult-hurling crowds, and screaming doughnut vendors: it’s all part of the fun of this classic Mexican pastime. The neighborhood surrounding the beloved coliseum can be a bit dodgy – watch your pockets.

    La Mutualista

    With smoke-yellowed walls and antique chandeliers dangling from high ceilings, this vintage dance hall simmers with the decaying glamour of Old Havana. Thursdays and Saturdays are salsa nights, the real reason to come. A Cuban band kicks off around midnight and the all-ages crowd explodes with eye-popping moves on the dance floor. Prepare to get sweaty.

    Escarabajo Scratch

    This fun hipster bar in the Centro Histórico has elevated the michelada (beer and Bloody Mary’s lovechild) to fine art and celebrates the day when grunge rock ruled. It also has 11 labels of good tequila.
