The best clubs in Europe – chosen by locals
The votes are in: we’ve just named the world’s very best cities for nightlife. To do this, we asked locals all over the world what they’d say about the nightlife in their city. Then we put the data to a panel of experts – Time Out’s city editors, culture experts and specialists – to decide on the very best. Bangkok topped the list, but plenty of European cities featured too – including Amsterdam, Athens and Berlin, which ranked second in the globe.
Time Out editors’ favourite Airbnbs in Europe
Sometimes you want hotel beds, fluffy robes and a breakfast buffet laid out for you. But sometimes, you really just want your own space, and to live like an actual local – and for those trips, only an Airbnb will do. Our editors agree; some of our most memorable trips feature memories of playing vinyl and cooking scrambled eggs in a light-filled kitchen, before wondering out to our favourite local bar every morning.

21 Best Irish Songs for Celebrating St. Patrick's Day 2025
|
All right, look: Is it offensive to suggest a rap song by a group of Irish-American knuckleheads that has nothing to do with Ireland or its history and everything to do with getting into drunken bar fights? Perhaps. But if you’ve ever celebrated St. Paddy’s Day in the states, you know that no other cultural product has captured the swaggering, staggering, boot-and-rally energy of the holiday better. And anyway, the track’s signature, incessant squealing noise sure sounds like a bagpipe, doesn’t it?
