Nightlife and Entertainment in Cebu City

Cebu has a moderately paced city life during the daytime, but after 8:00PM, Cebu city jumps into top gear. Cebu City Nightlife is colorful, loud and musical.

Mango Avenue and Mango Square

The best places to enjoy and experience Cebu nightlife are Mango Avenue and Mango Square. The whole avenue is lined up with numerous bars and restaurants. Most of these bars host live performances from popular music bands. There are also a number of gentlemen's clubs lined up in Mango Avenue, for those who are interested. The newly built International Bar Complex near the Convention Center is definitely worth a visit. This place has many good bars and restaurants, and most of them have unique aspects in terms of food, decoration or music. Karaoke bars and casinos can also be found in International Bar Complex.

Besides Mango Avenue and Mango Sqaure, Cebu City is dotted with a plethora of posh bars and restaurants. A few of them include the following:

Jazz ‘n Bluz

If you are traveling with your partner and both of you are fond of lively musical performances along with quality food and wine, then Jazz ‘n Bluz is the place for you. The restaurant is located in Mabolo Street. Plus, the live Jazz music and the wine will taste even better when you will look at the price.
