Porgy & Bess
1st districtAward-winning jazz club ranked among Europe's top ten. Bring €1 coins for the wardrobe (card only works at the bar), and order drinks before the set starts — the bar is unreachable once the music's on.
Where to Go Out in Vienna Tonight
"Where to go out in Vienna" as a static list is close to useless — a club's whole identity can change from a quiet Tuesday jazz set to a sold-out Saturday rave, and no article updates for that. Movent's feed pulls what's actually scheduled tonight at each of these venues, so the plan matches what's really on rather than what a page says in general. Eight real venues below, across genres.
Fluc
2nd district, PratersternTwo spaces in one: Wanne downstairs for club nights and live sets, Deck upstairs for a quieter drink. Karaoke FLUCC runs select Thursdays with free entry.
B72
8th district, Gürtel archesLive music from hip-hop to rock, built into old U-Bahn arches with a back garden. Tickets typically €5-15 — check the lineup first since the vibe swings wildly by night.
Grelle Forelle
9th district, Danube CanalOne of Vienna's best-known techno clubs, with a canalside terrace that transforms the venue in summer. Drinks are pricey — pre-drink before you arrive.
Volksgarten club
1st districtChandeliers and colonnades in a historic palace-garden setting, techno and house nights. Smart dress, ~€18 entry, go after midnight for the room to fill up.
Chelsea
8th district, Gürtel archesGuitar-driven rock and indie since 2001, built into a stone U-Bahn arch that gives the sound a genuinely different character. Open daily 18:00-04:00.
WUK
9th districtA former locomotive factory turned one of Europe's biggest socio-cultural centres, hosting concerts alongside 150 resident art and community groups. The outdoor courtyard is part of the night, not just an overflow area.
Prater Dome
2nd districtThree clubs under one roof — commercial hits, techno, and a Schlager-and-classics room called the Stadl. No tap water served; budget €4-5 per bottle.
Frequently asked
Where can I hear live jazz in Vienna tonight?
Porgy & Bess in the 1st district is ranked among Europe's top ten jazz clubs and runs a programme most nights. Order drinks before the set starts — the bar gets unreachable once the music's going, and bring coin cash for the wardrobe.
What's the best techno club in Vienna?
Grelle Forelle on the Danube Canal is one of the city's best-known techno venues, with an immaculate sound system and a canalside terrace that comes into its own in summer. Volksgarten club, set inside a historic palace garden, is the other major option, with a more polished, smart-dress crowd.
Is there a live rock or indie music venue in Vienna?
Chelsea and B72, both built into old U-Bahn arches on the Gürtel, are Vienna's two key guitar-music venues. Chelsea leans classic rock and indie since 2001; B72 covers a wider range from hip-hop to rock.
Where do students go out in Vienna?
Prater Dome is a common student-night pick — three rooms under one roof (commercial, techno, and a Schlager room called the Stadl) with regular student-focused events. Fluc near Praterstern is a cheaper, more alternative option with a relaxed upstairs pub and a club downstairs.
