Krakow nightclubs are mostly in the Old Town, many of them in old brick cellars under the streets around the Main Square. Szpitalna and Szewska streets are where the late-night dance floors are, and at the weekend most clubs stay open until the early morning. Here are the clubs stag groups ask about, what they cost and how to get a big group through the door.
Krakow clubs worth knowing
- Prozak 2.0 – one of the best-known clubs in the city, under Plac Dominikański 6, with three dance floors and mostly techno and house.
- Szpitalna 1 – at Szpitalna 1, several rooms of electronic music for groups who care about the DJ.
- Frantic – a big mainstream club at Szewska 5 with themed nights.
- Shine – at Szpitalna 38, known for themed parties and shows.
- Teatro Cubano – Latin music and a Havana feel in the Old Town.
Line-ups and opening nights change, so check the club’s own page before you go.
Entry, prices and dress code
At the weekend entry to most Old Town clubs costs 20–40 PLN, plus about 5 PLN for the cloakroom, which is practically compulsory. Smart casual works everywhere; sportswear, flip-flops and football shirts often do not. Late at night door staff can turn away a big group of men, especially in matching costumes.
Getting a stag group into a club
The simplest way is to have the entry arranged before you arrive:
- Night Club Entry – guest list entry for the group, from 19€.
- VIP Party Package – guest list, a table and two bottles, from 55€.
- Pub & Bar Crawl – the guide takes you through bars to a club with free entry, from 32€.
Ignore the promoters on Szpitalna and Floriańska who offer free entry or free drinks – our Krakow nightlife guide explains why.
