Nightlife

York certainly knows how to party - after all, the city does have almost 2,000 years experience in this field! The Romans started it all, of course, dressed up to the nines in their togas.

With a pub for every day of the year, a comprehensive range of music venues and three of the region’s best theatres, York is entertaining!

Home to the UK’s largest Festival of Food & Drink, York boasts more than its fair share of restaurants. From sophisticated brasseries to trendy riverside bars and cafes, there’s something to tantalise all taste buds!

In 2003, York was officially recognised as the world’s most haunted city. 7 ghost walks wander the snickleways and alleyways at night recounting the spooky tales of wandering Roman legions, a headless soul trying to find his head and even a ghost cat that runs through walls!

Be it a romantic meal for two, a lively night out with a group of friends, a quiet beer in a real ale pub or music while you dine and drink, in York you are spoilt for choice.

The city is filled with music for most tastes. It buzzes with jazz, rock, blues, theatrical music, early music, choirs and dance music. The Music Live Festival brings together a wide variety of tastes at fascinating venues throughout the city.
