2 Best Nightlife in Darwin, The Outback

You'll likely hear it before you see it—there's live music nearly every night of the week, and folks are singing or dancing along with it outside on the terrace. This lively and local favorite Irish pub and restaurant offers traditional pub grub as well as a special Sunday roast, with Guinness, Kilkenny, and Harp on tap, among other popular beer selections. Join in on trivia night or karaoke night, held once a week, or dance the night away with everyone else.

This favorite local spot is the place to go for a sunset beer in the tropics, and it's right next to the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory. Its plastic white chairs and tables add to the laid-back, "old Darwin" vibe. There's live music on Friday and Saturday night, too.
