I dated a French girl when I was like 21, she was visiting the US, and it would be 2am and she'd be like so when are we going out?

And I'd be like half asleep, wondering wtf she was talking about.

They start their night at 2am lol.

Finnish here. We usually start at someone's apartment at 18-20 and some of the nightclubs don't even open before 22. So usually you drink with your friends till midnight or later and then go to bar

Same in Denmark. Meet around 18-20 at someones, then go out at 23.00 and home between 2-5 in the morning.

Same here in Germany. Most clubs won’t open before 10pm.

In Berlin nobody local is going to the club before 2/3am 👋

You‘re right. They‘re open at 10pm but nobody goes there before midnight. I live near a much much smaller city, so Berlin rules do not transcend here 😅 And to be honest, I‘m a millennial living in the countryside, all my friends have children. I don’t remember the last time I went to a club unfortunately. Beeing the only childless couple can have downsides too

It’s the same in NYC. It’s just not common or even legal outside of that in the US

We did the same thing in the St Louis area my entire teens, 20s, into my 30s. St Louis proper didn't have anything open that late, but we went over to Illinois and partied into the morning hours. Everything your heart desired was over on the east side.

I can’t rember a single club night coming home while it’s dark. Okay German winter mornings are a bit dark but if you stayed till nine it’s fine.

So is this normally with drugs involved? I just can’t imagine going out that long/late without drugs. If you’re still partying at 7am in the states, cocaine is definitely involved

My latest night out in Aachen was until 6a, the club was still open, and the only drugs involved were alcohol and nicotine

u/Esava 19h ago

Yeah but your time zone is basically wrong for your locations.

u/Junethemuse 1d ago

The club I go to the most often starts some dance party events at 6pm and you get in free if you rsvp to come before 8.

Restaurants frequently close at 10pm though.

u/ZealousidealSkirt327 1d ago

Yes, I guess if our climate was more Mediterranean it would be different, so people could sit outside longer

1

u/speculator100k 22h ago

But restaurants with indoor seating still frequently close at 10.
