Oh yes, it’s ladies’ night, and the feeling’s right!

The nightlife scene has been popping lately, with many exciting clubs and bars offering sweet deals for the ladies. So, grab your girls and get ready for a night of drinks and dancing at these hotspots in Cairo.

Cairo Jazz Club 610

Getting together with your girls for a movie night is a ritual we’ll never grow out of, and Cairo Jazz Club 610 is keeping it alive. The recently opened expansion of our beloved club in Sheikh Zayed is hosting chick flick watch parties with all your favourite films, from Clueless to She’s All That. So if you’re ready for a bit of nostalgia or are a sucker for a good makeover scene, come live out your teenage dreams here. With tons of snacks and booze, their Girl’s Movie Night on the Terrace is a little more grown-up than our past sleepovers.

Indigo Lounge

Indigo hosts a Girl’s Night every Friday with a reduced minimum charge for women. Sorry fellas, but you’ll have to pay the total price. The resto-bar is located on the 6th of October and keeps the party pumping every night. Enjoy their different theme nights like Mojito Mondays, Saturday Night Fever, or sangria nights every Wednesday.

The Atrium

This bar in Maadi is raising the bar when it comes to nightlife in Cairo. Girls get in for free on different nights of the week, usually when the king of afrobeat, DJ Phisics, turns it up. At their latest Afro Vibes night, girls were allowed in up until midnight free of charge. We don’t know about you, but a free bar always sounds like a good bar to us.

Esco-Bar

No boys needed to have a good time at Esco-Bar in Garden City! Just feed us tacos and keep the cocktails coming, and we’ll be happy. This restaurant promises authentic riverside Tex-Mex cuisine with a Mérida-inspired atmosphere and serves all your favourites like fajitas, nachos, quesadillas, and, of course, some delicious drinks and cocktails. Every Wednesday night, ladies will enjoy 50 per cent off.
