Things to Do at Night in Marrakech
From rooftop bars to late-night street food, here's how to experience Marrakech after the sun goes down.
Best nightlife in Marrakech
Jemaa el-Fna After Dark
The famous square transforms at night into a massive open-air dining room with smoke, music, and storytellers. Eat at the food stalls (look for the busiest), drink fresh orange juice, and soak in the chaos.
Comptoir Darna
A restaurant-club with belly dancing performances, live music, and a glamorous crowd. The Moroccan cuisine is good but you're really here for the spectacle — the dancers are extraordinary. Book dinner.
Rooftop Drinks at Café Arabe
An Italian-Moroccan restaurant with one of the best rooftop terraces in the Medina. Cocktails at sunset with views of Koutoubia Mosque and the Atlas Mountains turning pink. Arrive by 6pm for the best seats.
Baromètre
Marrakech's best cocktail bar in Guéliz with a creative menu and knowledgeable bartenders. The Moroccan-inspired cocktails — argan, saffron, rose — are inventive and well-executed. Smart-casual crowd.
Kabana Rooftop
A nightlife spot near Jemaa el-Fna with a rooftop pool, DJs, and a younger crowd. The cocktails are decent and the atmosphere on weekend nights is lively. Check for events — they host themed nights.
Gnaoua Music in the Square
Traditional Gnaoua musicians perform in Jemaa el-Fna most evenings with hypnotic rhythms on sintir and castanets. Sit and listen — the trance-like music connects to West African spiritual traditions.
Theatro Marrakech
The city's biggest nightclub in a converted theatre with elaborate decor and international DJs. The dance floor is massive and the production value is high. Thursday and Friday are the biggest nights.
Horse-Drawn Carriage Ride
A calèche ride through the Medina and around the city walls at night is romantic and atmospheric. Negotiate the price before departing. The moonlit ramparts and palm-lined avenues are beautiful.
