Nice's nightlife runs the whole gamut, from grungy backpacker bars in the old town through to glitzy nightclubs where the rich and beautiful descend to see and be seen. In short there is something for everyone in the city centre. Cours Saleya is worth visiting for its outdoor market, but at night it also comes alive with bars and cafes. Thor, at no. 32, is a raucous option, popular with the ex-pat and student crowds. A little more sophisticated are La Suite, 2 rue Brea, Le Lafayette, 63 rue Gioffredo and Le Ghost, 3 rue de la Barillerie, the latter with its live DJs and tempting array of cocktails. The club scene peaks in summer and during the Carnival, with hot spots including Barrio Latino at 73 quai des Etats Unis, with its suitably Latino sounds, and Le Blue Boy, 9 rue Jean Baptiste Spinetta, a mainly gay venue that welcomes all. Subway, 19 rue Droite, can be good for live reggae and jazz.
