Nightlife in El Gouna
El Gouna has a multitude of different venues to explore after dark.
You can meet friends for a relaxed drink and conversation at a bar, try your luck at Aladin's Casino or dance for hours at one of the town's lively nightclubs.
The two main nightlife hubs of Kafr el Gouna, (or Downtown), and Abu Tig Marina, offer an endless choice of outlets, from trendy bars to cosy pubs, Aladdin's Casino, the great open air Palladium disco, karaoke cafés, beach bars, and a beautiful oasis in the outskirts of the resort to enjoy a typical Bedouin evening
The Aladdin Casino, in Kafr el Gouna, offers Roulette, Blackjack, Oasis stud pokers, Punto Banca, and Chemin de Fer. Between a roulette and a blackjack round, you can relax at the cocktail bar, with its lounge and late night snack parlour.
Places that are at the heart of the local social scene including the Club House, Mangroovy Beach, the Marina promenade and Studio 52, to name just a few, often organise live concerts, exhibitions, events, BBQ beach parties and much more.
And if you are looking for a more subdued, intimate atmosphere, there is a selection of cosy stylish bars offering music for romance and great cocktails.
