Practical information : Going out Marrakech
Timetable
If you're planning a night out in a nightclub, don't arrive too early - the atmosphere doesn't start until midnight. Moroccan youth like to change venue and atmosphere when out with a group. For example, start in a bar for an aperitif, then go for dinner somewhere, before having another drink in a chicha bar, try your luck in the casino, and finally end up in a club to dance to the sound of the DJ. You can even have a hearty breakfast at dawn to round off the evening in style. Some cafés in Hivernage have understood this and open their doors at dawn to meet this demand. Expect to line up at some of the more festive venues on Saturday evenings.
Budget & Tips
If you want to party in Marrakech, especially in the trendy places, you'll need to budget accordingly, as the prices charged are equivalent to those in Europe.
To be booked
The dinner shows are very popular with visitors and are one of the places where people like to party. The settings are unique, the food correct and the atmosphere festive, with dancers and musicians, live bands and belly dancers. It's highly recommended - indeed, essential in high season - to book in advance to guarantee a table and enjoy the show. Please note that some venues are closed one day a week, often on Mondays or Wednesdays, outside weekends.
Night transport
To get around at night, it's best to call Taxis Verts, available 24 hours a day. The fare is that of the meter (with a minimum charge of 10 DH at night), plus 15 DH for the Taxi Vert service.
Age restrictions
The consumption of alcohol in Morocco remains a sensitive subject. First of all, you should know that drinking alcohol is forbidden by religion and considered haram (a sin). However, you will find that many people choose to do so. In Marrakech outside the medina, various types of alcoholic beverages are available in restaurants, bars, hotels, casinos and nightclubs, and it is possible to buy them in French supermarkets (separate section) or specialist liquor stores. However, drinking alcohol on the public highway, or an open space such as a terrace, is strictly prohibited for everyone. During Ramadan, it is not only forbidden to drink alcohol, but also to touch a bottle. At the supermarket, don't be surprised if you are asked to scan the bottle yourself at the checkout.
