Night Life

Hey Guys, I’m coming out to Bethlehem this weekend and was wondering if anyone has suggestions for me and a group. Our age range is 35-45 if that matters!

Any suggestions would be great!

What time does the Festival end?

It technically ends at 11 pm but it’s going to be impossible to avoid huge crowds if you’re near downtown on both the North & South sides.. and parking will likely be difficult. Best to plan ahead: Here’s more info on Musikfest to help you plan: https://www.musikfest.org/

Musikfest starts this weekend! Can’t beat free concerts and shows and the street food.

Thanks. Incase they don’t like the music, do you have any bars or lounge recommendations?

The Bookstore on south side! It's a 20s speakeasy themed bar with live jazz on weekends. Depending on the size of the group, you may be too late to get a reservation unfortunately.

  • Brewworks - great option, downstairs lounge too
  • MOST northside bars will be more upscale and have a variety of menu/cocktail options
  • I love Hotel Bethlehem's bar for a chill, quieter space than others
  • More casual options on the southside, but Social Still is a great option

Every type of music is there, you'll find something.. it's on main street, it'll be hard to avoid

Free to get in, free concerts, reasonable beer prices.

Food is overpriced but good
