Bars & Nightlife

Before going to dinner, don’t miss the aperitivo bars, which are usually open from 6:30 to 9:30 in the evening. The early-evening drink has become a must in Italy for both young and old people, and it’s also an easy way to make new acquaintances. The real place for booming nightlife is on the Versilian coast, just 10 km from the city, where the most famous discos are located (mostly in Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi). Pisa does, however, boast some decent places to listen to live music and dance.
