What happens if the summer season ends? Nothing, in particular – and we can say that after long, long years of experience. The Budapest (night)life doesn’t end at all, actually this is when the club season is about to begin. Instead of hot and steamy nights, you can expect for long queues at the cloakroom and instead of having a few bottles of beer on Erzsébet tér at night you should be prepared to go to house parties instead. We made our way around town to find the best clubs, bars and party places for the autumn months.

If you are looking for cool places where you can listen to popular music and where you can let your hair down without having to dress out then the following places are the best options for you. So put your favourite Tee and your old Converse sneakers on and get down. If you are interested in owls, in bunnies and in foreigners then Instant is for you which has a sizzling dance floor and some crazy flipper tables as well. If you had enough of the international crowd then maybe you should move on to Fogas Ház.

Not always dancy, not dressy at all and progressively cool
These clubs are known for their musical and cultural profiles instead of their professional catering and service. RoHAM is one of these places, it offers wicked beats, rockabilly, rock and roll and lo-fi tunes as well. It’s little brother is Trafik – which has absolutely nothing to do with trafiq, spelled with the letter q. Trafik is known for its rock, hardcore and dark beats.
Szabad az Á is also a very similar place, this club just moved into the . Our big favourite is which is known for its great reputation and its relatively small capacity. The dance floor is only 4 or 5 square metres. also deserves an honourable mention and it would also deserve to be included in the previous category but since it gives home to several art projects we consider it to be progressively cool.
