The Göttingen city center sports a vibrant pub and club scene catering for a mostly student clientele. There are no enforced closing times. Usually smoking is not allowed indoors, but some pubs do have extra rooms for guests, who smoke. Some establishments have live music. Usually an entrance fee is charged for live entertainment.
Göttingen clubs and discos are mostly located in the city center and they also cater primarily for students. Evenings with guest DJs and theme nights are usually advertised by poster throughout the city. A “night of the clubs” in October sees live music in all bars and is well worth a visit.
