You are already planning a bachelor party in Cartagena, if you are here it is because you are doing it, not because I have guessed it. And since it is a bachelor party, it is in your interest to know what the nightlife in Cartagena is like, how safe it can be and what are the best areas to celebrate.
In this article we will talk about all the information you need, I will share tips to enjoy Cartagena’s nightlife to the fullest, and I will give you suggestions for bars, and the best nightclubs. Stay until the end.
Cartagena nightlife
Cartagena is the most popular destination in Colombia along with Medellin, due to the known preferences of local and foreign citizens. As an excellent international destination, there are many options to enjoy the nightlife, from relaxed bars, terraces to have a beer, places to walk and see beautiful single girls, and the best clubs.
We can start talking about prices, which for locals or Colombian citizens are usually expensive because it is a place with a powerful tourism industry. But if you are a citizen of North America, or you come from Europe, this will not be expensive for you at all. If we compare the prices of the best nightclubs in Cartagena that are nationally famous, I dare to say that these places are cheaper than any nightclub in the United States.
As for the entrance to the bars, nightclubs, or restaurants, we have everything under control, since our packages include VIP entrance to the best places with the right to drinks and without having to stand in line, which is why it is the best option that you have with us if you are already planning a bachelor party in Cartagena.
Good to have safety tips
In Cartagena, as in any city in Latin America, there are bad people, individuals who are dedicated to stealing and doing evil. If you’ve never heard of a drug called scopolamine, I advise you to take a few minutes to Google it.
Although this drug is very rare in Cartagena, some individuals use it to subdue their victims at will, therefore we advise you not to lose sight of your drink, and you should not accept drinks from strangers either. For example, some women pretend to be interested in a man so he must be alert and not lose sight of his drink.
In our VIP packages, we include a plan that is especially liked by those people who want to drink until they can’t take it anymore, and that is the security guard service. These people will be attentive to the group at all times and will accompany them to any place they wish to go, they will be armed if you wish, but if they are unarmed, they are perfectly prepared to neutralize any situation that occurs.
QUICK CONTACT
It's good to wear the right clothes
Colombians and the Latin culture are like peacocks, they dress to impress, and this applies to both men and women. We recommend wearing clothes that are quite fresh, we are talking about T-shirts, shorts and comfortable walking shoes, due to the tropical climate.
Some nightclubs have and enforce a dress code but not so much that you have to walk into this place dressed as George Bush Sr. Here men can enter with shorts, sneakers, or sandals.
It is not about going unnoticed dressing like the locals, depending on your style, I think you will not like their way of dressing, also as foreigners it is difficult to pretend not to be a tourist when you open your mouth to speak, everyone will know that you are not Colombian.
But let's talk about the best places
Many places that were good in the past had to close due to the coronavirus pandemic, many of my favorite places when I went to Cartagena were closed, and places like Fragma or Bazurto Social Club that I used to love to have a beer there no longer exist.
In our work as party planners and stag party planners, it is vital to know the hot spots, their menu,s and the nightlife, before including these places in our packages.
Next, I will mention what for me are the best places of the moment to come and celebrate.

4. Donde Fidel
It is also located in the Getsemaní neighborhood, Donde Fidel is a well-known place not only in Cartagena but throughout Colombia. It is an excellent place if you want to listen to salsa and enjoy a delicious drink. To start the night, it is a place that we recommend.
