Twice Club

Twice Club is the main late-night club of Faro, on Rua do Prior in the city centre, in Portugal's Algarve region. The street is the city's established nightlife strip, a short walk from the old town and the marina, and Twice sits among a cluster of bars and clubs there. The crowd is young, drawing University of Algarve students, local twenty-somethings and visitors, with an age range that centres on the late teens to early thirties. The atmosphere is loud, packed and dance-focused, particularly in the small hours. Dress is casual-smart; sportswear and beachwear are best avoided, and the door can be selective on busy nights. The music policy is electronic, house, reggaeton and commercial hits, with reggaeton on Fridays and house on Saturdays, so the choice of night shapes the sound. The drinks programme is bar-led, with cocktails at about €7-9 (roughly $8-10), plus beer and spirits at mid-range prices. The club operates on Friday and Saturday, from about 23:00 to 06:00, and the floor fills around 02:00, in line with the Portuguese habit of starting late. Queues build from about 00:30, so arriving before that avoids the longest wait. A cover charge of €5-10 (roughly $5.75-11.50) applies at busy times, and it may include a drink depending on the night, which is worth asking at the door. Reservations are not typical for general entry, though groups wanting a table can enquire at the club in advance; formal bottle service is limited compared with the larger resort clubs elsewhere in the Algarve. Outside term time and summer, the club can be quieter, so visitors seeking the busiest nights should aim for weekends during the university year and the peak summer season. Rua do Prior's other venues, including Dux and 24 Bar Faro, are within a few doors, making it easy to move between venues during the night.
