Seville travel guide — where to stay, what to do, and where to eat in Seville, Andalusia, Spain.

Seville's nightlife begins late and runs until dawn. The evening starts with a paseo and pre-dinner drinks (copas de fino or vermouth) from 19:00–21:00, dinner at 21:00–23:00, then bars from 23:00, and clubs from 01:00–06:00. The city's nightlife clusters in several distinct zones: El Arenal for sophisticated terrace bars, Alameda de Hércules for indie bars and the LGBTQ+ scene, Triana for riverside drinking, and La Macarena for neighbourhood bars. Flamenco shows run from 19:00–22:00 at dedicated tablaos and the Museo del Baile Flamenco.

Seville's scene is warm, social, and centred on outdoor terraces. The concept of the 'copa' — standing with a drink in hand and talking loudly — is the dominant form of nightlife. Clubs exist but are secondary to bar culture. Flamenco performances at serious venues are among the best in Spain. The sherry culture (fino, manzanilla, oloroso) permeates the whole city.
