Budapest has a busy nightlife - live music can be heard at Cactus Juice, Fat Mo's, Gödör Klub, Holdudvar, ruin bars in the former Jewish quarter are filled with rowdy Hungarian students, and the A38 ship club hosts alternative bands.
Hungary's capital Hungary also has venues for people of non-traditional sexual orientation, and they're not just popular with sex minorities. The most famous are Action Bar (no women allowed), Café Eklektika (a lounge cafe) and Árkádia Gay Bar (located in the center of the capital).
Want something lighter? Check out the Capella club. It's a big place with lots of dance floors and bars. The club's specialty is the travesty show.
In the summer, you should buy a ticket to one of Széchenyi's sauna parties and also visit Corvintető. This nightclub is located on the roof of the Corvin department store and is only open in the summer. All the progressive youth of Budapest gather here. Also visit ANKER'T, the city's most spectacular nightclub, and Keret, a secret club.
For the more adventurous, Para Park is a popular local attraction. You and your friends will be trapped in a maze-like basement, and to get out you'll need to solve logic puzzles, find clues, and behave like you're on a quest.
