In peak season, Albufeira increases from approximately 44,000 locals to around 300.000 visitors.&nbsp;This one statistic explains the crowds and energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_84 ez-toc-wrap-left counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/nightlife-albufeira-portugal-tour\/#What_makes_Albufeira_the_party_capital_of_the_Algarve\" >What makes Albufeira the party capital of the Algarve?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/nightlife-albufeira-portugal-tour\/#Old_Town_or_The_Strip_which_fits_your_night\" >Old Town or The Strip: which fits your night?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/nightlife-albufeira-portugal-tour\/#What_is_a_private_VIP_nightlife_tour_in_Albufeira\" >What is a private VIP nightlife tour in Albufeira?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/nightlife-albufeira-portugal-tour\/#Which_bars_and_clubs_deserve_a_place_on_your_itinerary\" >Which bars and clubs deserve a place on your itinerary?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/nightlife-albufeira-portugal-tour\/#Private_VIP_tour_or_public_pub_crawl_what_is_the_real_difference\" >Private VIP tour or public pub crawl: what is the real difference?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/nightlife-albufeira-portugal-tour\/#How_much_does_a_premium_night_out_in_Albufeira_cost\" >How much does a premium night out in Albufeira cost?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/nightlife-albufeira-portugal-tour\/#Practical_answers_for_first-time_visitors\" >Practical answers for first-time visitors<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/nightlife-albufeira-portugal-tour\/#How_to_book_your_private_Albufeira_nightlife_experience\" >How to book your private Albufeira nightlife experience<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_makes_Albufeira_the_party_capital_of_the_Algarve\"><\/span>What makes Albufeira the party capital of the Algarve?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Albufeira&#8217;s compact zone contains hundreds of bars and clubs, so you don&#8217;t need to spend the night driving around.&nbsp;The action takes place on the south coast, just 35-40 minutes from Faro Airport. For international travellers, this is a convenient location.&nbsp;A nightlife hub in southern Europe that can rival any other resort, with warm summer nights and an open air atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choose the right person from two characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Old_Town_or_The_Strip_which_fits_your_night\"><\/span>Old Town or The Strip: which fits your night?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Old Town, centred around the pedestrian-only street Rua candido dos Reis, and the main plaza, is where you&#8217;ll find the most relaxed atmosphere.&nbsp;Think of cocktail terraces with rooftop views, music on the roof, and a more relaxed pace.&nbsp;The Strip, or Avenida S\u00e1 Carneiro, in the Montechoro region, is the energetic side. A neon corridor of nightclubs, DJs and bar-parties that are open late.&nbsp;In the evenings traffic is restricted, allowing it to become a pedestrian zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Feature<\/th><th>Old Town Albufeira<\/th><th>The Strip (Avenida S\u00e1 Carneiro)<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Vibe<\/td><td>Relaxed, scenic, cocktail-led<\/td><td>High-energy, loud, club-focused<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Best for<\/td><td>Couples, quieter groups<\/td><td>Stag and hen parties, big groups<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Music<\/td><td>Live bands, chilled DJ sets<\/td><td>House, international DJs, themed nights<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Closing time<\/td><td>Late, but earlier than The Strip<\/td><td>Sunrise in summer<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dress code<\/td><td>Smart-casual<\/td><td>Smart-casual, some clubs stricter<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re looking for both, an excellent host can build an evening starting in the Old Town before finishing on the Strip.&nbsp;If you want to know more about how a guided tour of this route works, the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/luxury-nightlife-albufeira-vip\/\">luxury Albufeira VIP break down<\/a>&nbsp;will take you through each hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_a_private_VIP_nightlife_tour_in_Albufeira\"><\/span>What is a private VIP nightlife tour in Albufeira?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Private VIP nightlife tours are fully hosted evenings where a guide in English meets your group. He or she takes you to hand-picked clubs and bars, opens the doors, and ensures that everyone is at a reserved table and has bottle service.&nbsp;The logistics are handled by the guide, and the group is left to enjoy themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A premium package will usually include the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The group will be able to enter Club Vida, Kiss and other clubs without having to wait in the queue.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The table or booth reserved in your name will be held for the entire night<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bottle service of your choice with ice, mixers and spirits. One bottle for five guests.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hosts who manage each door and accompany you between venues<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There is a waitress at every bar, so you don&#8217;t have to fight through the crowd.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Private transfers between your hotel and the airport<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can tell the difference when you organize a party on the fly from one that just runs itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_bars_and_clubs_deserve_a_place_on_your_itinerary\"><\/span>Which bars and clubs deserve a place on your itinerary?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Albufeira&#8217;s nightlife is so diverse that no group could possibly cover it all in one evening. Therefore, a local tour guide is essential.&nbsp;These are the ones who consistently deserve their reputation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Libertos Bar and Club<\/strong>\u00a0Opened since the 80s, this club blends a glamorous bar with a pianist-bar atmosphere.

It is located just outside the town of Vilamoura.
