Lourdes is chiefly and rightfully associated with a prominent pilgrimage destination. Religious tourism is at its best in Lourdes, which is why one can never lay stress on the nightlife opportunities of Lourdes without exaggerating. Yet, there are several venues which do yield reasonable nightlife opportunities. Far from being too spectacular, the nightlife in Lourdes generates enough buzz to keep eccentric pilgrims busy at night and simultaneously not to contrast with the sobriety of the overall atmosphere of Lourdes. Another aspect tourist should keep in mind is most hotels have cafés and bars, but these generally close around 11pm. These are some of the most recommendable nightlife venues one can resort to if in Lourdes to other ends than pilgrimage.
Le Colibri is a disco and nightclub where dancing and drinking are equally accessible to all clients who comply with the legal drinking age limit (18).
La Fregate is yet another alternative in terms of nightlife, which is why those willing to complement their experience of Lourdes this way are advised to visit La Fregate.
Le Mylord is also a typical nightclub which meets tourists’ expectations in terms of nightlife opportunities.
Some tend to believe the Tostaky Pub is the friendliest and welcoming venue of this kind in Lourdes.
