Friends Club & Bar

Friends Club & Bar is a lively LGBTQ+-friendly nightclub in the heart of Prague, combining dancing, drinks, themed parties and a varied programme of late-night entertainment. Located on Bartolomějská Street in Prague 1, the club presents itself as an open, welcoming space where visitors can dance, socialize, meet new people and enjoy an unpretentious night out.

The atmosphere changes according to the programme. Regular nights include DJ sets, pop-focused parties, oldies parties, themed events, karaoke, connection parties and drag or travesti shows. The current programme demonstrates that the venue is active throughout the week, with different DJs and performers appearing on different nights. Karaoke is scheduled every Tuesday, while Sunday programming can include relaxed DJ-led evenings, quizzes and melodic techno events. Themed parties are an important part of the identity, with previous concepts including Toga Party, Shrek Party, Barbie Night, Euphoria-inspired events and Halloween.

Entertainment goes beyond music. Friends regularly combines DJs with stage performances, drag shows, themed decorations, competitions and audience participation. Some special events also feature more provocative entertainment, such as the Hot NaviGaytion programme with drink competitions and a male strip show.

Drinks are another central part of the experience. The official website describes an offering ranging from classic drinks to special cocktails, while external listings identify cocktails, beer, wine and other alcoholic beverages. The venue also supports private celebrations and group events, including birthdays, graduations, bachelor parties, receptions and smaller corporate evenings, with optional decorations, refreshments, photographers, karaoke, quizzes and performances.

Friends operates every day from 21:00 until 06:00 according to its official website, making it particularly suited to travelers looking for late-night entertainment rather than an early-evening bar. A cloakroom is available throughout opening hours, with jacket storage included in the entrance fee and a 50 CZK charge for backpacks or bags.

Its central Prague location is another major advantage. Friends sits within easy walking distance of major Old Town sights, making it convenient for visitors combining sightseeing with Prague nightlife.
