Club entertainment in St Petersburg

  1. A

    Dumskaya Ul

    If you are up for a night of bar-hopping, you can’t do better than Dumskaya ul, where four of St Petersburg’s hottest spots for drinking and music are crammed into a crumbling, classical façade. A couple of these places are (or were) owned by Anton Belyankin and Andrei Gradovich – two members of the local ska band Dva Samolyota – which pretty much guarantees great music and a cool vibe.

    Fidel

    If you are up for a night of bar-hopping, you can't do better than Dumskaya ul. Fidel is crammed into a crumbling, classical façade, along with three other hot spots for drinking and music. This funky place is a sort of musical and alcoholic tribute to the ruler who 'outlived six presidents of America and six leaders of the Soviet Union and Russia'.

    Achtung Baby

    The best of several bars and clubs that have taken over the old tsarist-era stables, Achtung Baby makes great use of the vast, high-ceiling space. We love the furry globes that hang over the bar. Dancing is guaranteed as the night wears on.

    Decadance

    Think you have what it takes to rub shoulders with St Pete’s bold and beautiful clubbing glitterati? Then front up to the face control at this self-important lounge club.

    Purga

    You can celebrate New Year Russian-style every night in one room of this intimate fun-packed club, while in the other a traditional wedding celebration is in full flow.

    Underground Club

    Quite literally underground, since this club’s four dance floors occupy a sprawling bomb shelter. Come here for hard-core electronic dance music.
