These 7 European cities have been named best in the world for nightlife
Whatever a good night out means to you – whether it's boogieing 'til dawn in a sticky-floored club or sweating out your stresses in an after-dark sauna sesh – cities across Europe each have their own individual nightlife identities, and there's something out there for all of us. But which cities are doing it best? Well, nightlife is part of the bedrock of Time Out, so we quizzed thousands of locals about what going out is like in their cities, and seven hubs across the continent made it onto our shiny new worldwide list. The first of these was Madrid, which scraped into second place behind crowning champion Las Vegas, thanks to 83 percent of locals describing the nightlife scene as either 'good' or 'amazing'. We spoke to Time Out Madrid 's restaurant and bars editor Gorka Elorrieta about the city's after-dark scene, who said: 'Big nights out happen on Gran Vía thanks to LuLa and Fitz, while Madrid's LGBTQ+ scene boasts legendary venues like Rick's, weekly drag shows at former indie temple Maravillas Club, and beautiful people packing out the nights at Marta, Cariño!, and Salvaora Brown. There's also a new kind of high-end fun in town, spearheaded by a wave of Latin American arrivals: at places like Pabblo, Rhudo and Jimmy's you'll find either dinner and a show, or restaurants where the food is just the warm-up before the party really kicks off.' Paris claimed second place, and Berlin, our 2024 European champion for nightlife, came in third, with 80 percent and 72 percent of locals awarding them with positive ratings respectively. Scroll on to see each hub danced its way into our worldwide ranking. These are the best cities in Europe for nightlife, according to Time Out Madrid (2) Paris (3) Berlin (5) Brighton (7) Warsaw (12) Amsterdam (17) Athens (20)

The best pizzerias in Europe have been crowned for 2025
We know a thing or two about good pizza at Time Out. In March, we released our global guide to the world's best pizzas, where you'll find everything from a classic Neapolitan margherita in Naples to porteño-style pies in Buenos Aires. But we're not the only ones chewing and cheese-pulling away to determine the planet's tastiest pies. 50 Top Pizza is an influential industry guide that produces several annual pizzeria rankings – and they've just dropped their latest list of the greatest pizzerias in Europe. Number one on the list for 2025 is Napoli on the Road, a London-based pizzeria with branches in Chiswick and Richmond. It's the second year in a row the restaurant, opened by Italian-born pizza chef Michele Pascarella, has claimed the prize. Baldoria in Madrid came second on 50 Top Pizza's ranking. Its signature Búfala Fest pizza featured on our own list, with Time Out Madrid's editor Gorka Elorrieta calling it 'a delightful surprise for cheese lovers'. In third place was a tie between Sartoria Panatieri in Barcelona and Via Toledo in Vienna – though the most represented city overall was none other than Paris. If you're wondering where on earth Italy is in all of this, rest assured the pizza motherland has its own dedicated ranking, the winners of which will be announced on July 15 in Milan.
