Jerusalem Nightlife

Nightlife

Jerusalem is not known for its nightlife, particularly because many of the residents here adhere to strict religious teachings. Still, several establishments keep club-goers and bar-hoppers relatively satisfied. As an alternative, several reputable theatre companies, many featuring excellent local and more international artists, make their home here. Bars usually close when the last customer leaves and clubs stay open till the wee hours of the morning.
