Bariloche Travel Guide: Nightlife

Bariloche’s nightlife came to being when the town started to become a hot destination for Argentina’s high school students who made the journey to celebrate their final year of secondary school with a skiing vacation in this beautiful region of their home country. Since then, many night clubs have popped up around town, each catering to a particular style of music and crowd.

A few places to check out include the posh Bypass situated on Rolando 157 in Bariloche which plays a variety of techno dance music in an elegant setting that features large roman-style pillars.
One of the oldest night clubs in the town is Cerebro. Another large discotheque that caters to the young and hip, it features interesting laser effects and a large dance floor that remains jam-packed on weekends.

Roket and Genux are two other dance clubs that fall under the techno-heavy, laser show category when it comes to night clubs and also come recommended by party-goers. However, if travelers are looking for a more laidback place to have a drink, a visit to Grisu is advised. The wood-panel walls and large window that show a panoramic view of Nahuel Huapi Lake make for a great setting and the bartenders are excellently trained in preparing delicious cocktails.
