Nightlife in Marseille

Marseille is the second largest city in France. It counts nearly 1 million inhabitants in its 16 districts. There are also all the others who live in the neighboring townships, in addition to the 5 million tourists who come here every year. In view of all this jolly band, it is needless to say that the demand in terms of leisure is very strong, and especially with regard to outings.

In order to meet the expectations of holidaymakers and locals, Marseille offers various ideas for outings. Bars, restaurants, nightclubs ... There is everything to organize a quite successful evening out. In this guide, we will not establish rankings of establishments of this type in Marseille. Each of them has something special to offer and it is thus difficult to place one on top of another.

We’d rather talk about a successful evening in Marseille, passing from a place to another, early in the evening until very late at night. Our tour promises to be very interesting, to discover the gastronomic specialties in restaurants, passing by the particular atmosphere that one meets only in a Marseille’s bar, before ending the evening in a trendy discotheque of the Phocaean city.

An evening in Marseille naturally begins with a visit to one of the thousands restaurants in the city. It is necessary to gain strength before facing the long evening in the old Phocaean city that never sleeps. It is also an opportunity to taste the best Provence dishes. What a treat to relish the famous bouillabaisse, prepared by the best chefs in Marseille, not forgetting the flagship recipes of Provence such as ratatouille, tapenade, soupe au pistou and much more.

Once the belly filled, the aim is now to have a digestif in one of the bars or breweries of the Provence capital. In these places, we are invited to taste the best wines and liquors of Languedoc, but above all, we immerse ourselves in an atmosphere of unforgettable feast, typical of Marseille bars. If you go to bars and breweries while a football game involving OM takes place at the Vélodrome stadium, the atmosphere is even more frenetic. We shall never see anything else that compares to that all around France.

Later in the evening, nightclubs in Marseille are filled by young and old, concerned to prolong a superb evening on the dance floor. All night clubs offer unforgettable evenings, but it is up to everyone to choose where they want to go. In general, Marseille DJs present a music program adapted to all audiences: in the early evening, it is rather retro for the greater satisfaction of 40-year-olds and more. After midnight, the atmosphere will be more electro and more rhythmic as young people like it.
