If you think the capital of Australia is just a stuffy city full of civil servants
who don't know how to have fun, you could not be more wrong. Though it is probably
true that the city does not quite party like its other counter parts Melbourne
and Sydney, there is no reason why you should be bored in this city.
Are you sitting in hotel room tired of sightseeing and wondering what to do
for fun? Don't wonder too long then. Pick up a copy of Canberra Times and check
out the list of daily events in the Alive section. A lot of music store and
cafes also keep magazines and newspapers that list out live music concerts and
literary and theatrical functions in the city.
If you want to enjoy a quite little drink or two with some company, or want
to nurse your drink while listening to some good music then Canberra has a lot
of options for you. There are various Irish and English taverns throughout the
city. O'Malley's Irish Bar is one place where you can enjoy your pint of Guinness
and if you want to experience traditional Irish fare then the bistro of Canberra
Irish Club is also an option. Some of the bars and clubs in Canberra are Canberra's
North Bar, Hippo Lounge Bar, ANU Union Bar, and Hellenic Club of Canberra. The
ANU Union Bar is also the ideal place to catch some great live acts by local
bands as well as national and international bands.
The best places to listen to Jazz and blues are PJ O'Reilly's, Dickson Tradies,
Canberra Southern Cross Club. If Latin Music is more to your style then you
can chose to dance the night away at En Vogue nightclub.
Canberra also offers you a huge range of cinema halls and theatres to choose
from.
Some of theses are Pacific 6 in Tuggeranong, Hoyts in Belconnen and Woden, Greater
Union in the city and Manuka and Cosmopolitan Twin Cinemas in Woden. Ronin Independent--Center
Cinema and Electric Shadows are the theatres where you could catch alternative
and Australian films.
