The Granville Street strip was once believed to have the highest concentration of neon in the world behind Shanghai, and you can still see evidence of this in the dazzling way the street comes to life after dark. Famous for its popular clubs and bars, this is the place to be to get off from the heavy load of work and just have a good time. The Commodore Ballroom and Vogue Theatre are popular venues where some of the best music artists hit the stage when they’re in town. If you prefer your night to be easy on the eyes, Ginger SixtyTwo and Caprice Night Club are places where you can look fabulous and put those dancing shoes to good use.
