Colorado Nightclub

Colorado Nightclub is a large dance club at 53 Orfanidou Street in the New Town of Rhodes Town, Greece, on the city's main late-night strip just outside the Old Town walls. Orfanidou Street concentrates many of the city's bars and clubs within a short walk, and Colorado is one of its larger venues, with a sizeable dance floor and a layout suited to big summer crowds. The crowd skews young adult, mainly holidaymakers in their late teens through thirties, along with some local residents and seasonal workers at weekends. Dress is casual to smart casual, and as with most Greek clubs the door can turn away visitors who are visibly intoxicated or in beachwear, so a tidy outfit is sensible. The atmosphere is high-energy, with loud sound and strong lighting. The venue's strobe lighting may affect visitors with photosensitive epilepsy, and anyone with that condition should take care or avoid the dance floor. Music is mainstream club fare, commonly dance, pop, and house with Greek hits mixed in, and sets build toward peak hours well after midnight. The drinks programme covers beer, spirits with mixers, shots, and cocktails, with club prices higher than neighbouring bars, particularly for spirits and bottled drinks. Hours are evenings to late and seasonal, so checking ahead is wise, especially in May, June, and late September when schedules are less predictable. Many Greek clubs charge for entry on busy nights, often including a drink, though policies vary, and table reservations with bottle service are usually available for groups through the venue directly. Arriving earlier, before the peak crowd, generally means a quicker entry. Friday and Saturday nights in July and August are the busiest, with queues forming from around midnight. Orfanidou Street also hosts Colosseum Bar and other venues, so many visitors move between places during the night. A taxi back to the hotel zone is the usual way to end the evening, and the Old Town gates are a short walk away.
