Metro: Acapulco, Mexico

Bar Rio
(Nightlife - Live Entertainment)
Costera Miguel Alemán 15, Acapulco  • 744-484-2366
Distance: ~11266.114 km
        Description: It used to be Andromedas dance club, but a full renovation has turned this into an expansive multi-level venue to kick back, enjoy a drink, get together with friends and listen to disco or live Mexican pop music every weekend. The stage is set dead center and can be seen from any one of their numerous bars. The crowd is young and energetic and really packs it in on Friday and Saturday nights. Be warned: they really pump up the volume here. The cover charge includes all-you-can-drink.

Ninas
(Nightlife - Live Entertainment)
Costera Miguel Alemán 2969, Acapulco  • 744-484-2400
Distance: ~11266.114 km
        Description: Most of the nightclubs in Acapulco cater to a large population of toursits, but if you want to have an authentic Mexican experience, head over to Ninas right in front of the Convention Center. The crowd (predominantly locals), the entertainment (Mexican celebrity impersonators) and live music playing salsa, merengue and cumbia create a true south-of-the-border fiesta atmosphere.

One Dollar Bar
(Nightlife - Live Entertainment)
Costera Miguel Alemán, Acapulco  39690 • 744-84-8230
Distance: ~11266.114 km
        Description: Cast in a cool neon glow, the night gets started early at One Dollar Bar where the drinks, though not a buck, are relatively inexpensive. Lots of seating and an open plan is good for socializing with the crowd of tourists that walk up from La Condesa beach. If you feel like dancing, join the fleet feet on the patio. Also, if you love rock and roll music you've come to the right place; live cover bands appear Thursday through Saturday.

Palladium
(Nightlife - Live Entertainment)
Carretera Escénica, Acapulco  39880 • 744-446-5490
Distance: ~11266.114 km
        Description: It would be difficult to say what is more spectacular at Palladium, the view from the 160-ft wide windows, the laser light show, the swanky but fun loving crowd, or the nightly appearance at 4am of "the Silver Man." Dressed as an Aztec warrior complete with feathered headdress and sporting silver paint on every inch of his body, he dances while brandishing a burning torch and lip synchs to bawdy songs. The place is very popular with locals and tourists, so be prepared to wait in line.

Pepe's Piano Bar
(Nightlife - Live Entertainment)
Carretera Escénica Comercial La Vista, Local 5, Acapulco  • 744-446-5736
Distance: ~11266.114 km
        Description: This festive nightclub has attracted would-be crooners for over 40 years. When the karaoke machine isn't providing melodies, a talented pianist accompanies brave members of the audience who sing anything from Spanish love songs to popular American tunes. The crowd is of all ages but has one goal in mind – to have fun! Non-singers will be content to sit on the red velvet benches and sip a tequila or beer.

Salon Q
(Nightlife - Live Entertainment)
Costera Miguel Alemán 3117, Acapulco  39850 • 744-81-01-14
Distance: ~11266.114 km
        Description: Ritmo tropicale reigns at Acapulco's "Cathedral of Salsa," paying nightly homage to Cuba's sensual dance. The neon-lit bandshell showcases musicians and impersonators of Mexican celebrities. Dance contests and performances keep the energy high in a crowd that spans all ages but is serious about salsa and its slightly slower cousin, cumbia.
