Nairobi · Nightlife

Westlands courtyard of bars, food trucks and DJs on Parklands Road. Open daily from noon until late.

Lavington live music room for Kenyan bands, jazz and Afro-fusion. A garden setting rather than a club.

Tamarind's Langata venue: restaurant by day, dance floor by night, right next door to Carnivore.

The densest strip in the city, with rooftops, sports bars and clubs in walking distance. Take a registered taxi home.

Congolese soukous and Kenyan benga bands play late across the city. Ask your hotel which night is on where.
