Nightlife in Vilnius
Šnipiškes district, Vilnius's nightlife is dressy. Sophisticates gather at the Congress Palace and Lithuanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre for ballet and classical music, while fashion-conscious youngsters prowl the bars of the Old Town before moving on post-midnight to pose in clubs. Try Pabo Latino for salsa or a touch of Broadway razzamatazz at Brodvejus. Visitors congregate in the 22nd-floor SkyBar in the Reval Hotel for views across the city.
