Nightlife of Lucerne
There are plenty of art centres, music venues and active nightlife scene around the city. The flyers can check for the two places: Doo-Bop, Brandgassli 8, is a dance music shop with plenty of information about events in Luzerne. Boa, Geissensteinring 41. Arts centre with a range of interesting events and music nights. Jazz Kantine, Grabenstrasse 8. Happening Old Town café-bar beside Luzern’s jazz school, with DJs and live music (not only jazz) in the basement on weekends. Rathaus Brauerei, Unter der Egg. Wonderful echoing cross-vaulted beerhall below the Rathaus, where young enthusiastic drinkers come to sample a range of self-brewed beers, all of which are pretty powerful. Sedel, near the HI hostel, A former women’s prison outside the city, which now hosts noisy pinkish/industrial bands and DJ nights at the weekend, with a kind of community-squat atmosphere during the week as bands practice in the graffiti cells. St Magdalena, Eisengasse 5, universally known as the Magdi-Bar, with a crowded ground-floor bar and a more sociable upstairs, although everything gets more and more raucous as the night veers wildly on.
