With a wide range of nightclubs, restaurants, bars, live music and theatre, our country's nightlife offers something for most age groups (the legal drinking age is 18). Live bands are popular with younger pub-goers and jazz venues attract a more mature audience. Nightclubs vary in music genres, and the diversity of quality live theatre ensures all interests are catered for. If you enjoy a punt or two, then try your luck at a casino, where you'll find a range of gaming tables and machines (20 is the minimum age for entry). If you're a smoker, then please note that there is a smoking ban inside all restaurants, casinos, pubs, bars and nightclubs, although provision is made outside of these establishments for smokers.
