New Orleans
#3 in Best Nightlife Cities in the U.S.
New Orleans is a destination with its own distinct identity – one that knows how to party. The French Quarter is infamous for its rowdiness (especially every February or March during Mardi Gras), and a night out here can easily last until the wee hours. If you’re seeking a more authentic New Orleans experience, head to the jazz clubs that line Frenchmen Street to watch local musicians jam.
New York City
#4 in Best Nightlife Cities in the U.S.
No city in the United States has a wider variety of nightlife options than New York. From trendy cocktail lounges in SoHo and rooftop bars in midtown Manhattan to pub crawls in the East Village and beer gardens in Brooklyn, there are countless ways to enjoy a night out in the Big Apple. The city also offers everything from concerts to Broadway musicals for visitors to enjoy. Plus, many of the bars and clubs in the City That Never Sleeps stay open until 4 a.m., meaning you can keep the party going nearly all night long.
