Nightlife in Mykonos
Mykonos Town clubs after dark
Chora is a maze of whitewashed lanes on the island's west side, and its night happens on foot: the sunset over Little Venice, a drink on Matogianni, then a club door somewhere between the old harbour and Kastro.

Mykonos Town
Little Venice and Alefkandra: the first drink
In Little Venice the houses stand right against the sea, their painted wooden balconies over the water, and some of them are now bars and cafés. The windmills of Kato Mili line the hill next door. The municipality points visitors here for sunset cocktails, at tables by the water or up on the balconies, before the night moves inland.
Matogianni, Kastro and the lanes in between
Matogianni is the town's best-known street: shops by day, and by night bars and lounge-cafés with crowds outside and a wide mix of music. Towards the sea, Kastro, where a medieval castle once stood, wraps around Panagia Paraportiani, five churches joined into one white sculpture. Just below it, Jackie O' Town Bar puts on drag shows every night.
The club doors of Chora
WE ❤ MYK Club, on Florou Zouganeli, is the one we sell: an open-air club above the old harbour and Gialos, mainstream sets with live vocalists, and in 2026 a themed week with doors at midnight.
Lío, on Enoplon Dinameon in Tria Pigadia, is a dinner-cabaret that turns into a club at 00:30 every night; for the club part you need a ticket, not a dinner booking. It is 18+ and turns away beachwear, sportswear and flip-flops.
Skandinavian, on Agios Ioannis Barkia square, has been family-run since 1978: three rooms around an open-air courtyard, the summer's hits and doors from 20:00 to 05:30. Its rule is dressy smart casual, 18 and over, and ID can be asked for at the door.
Getting home from Chora
Inside Chora you walk: the clubs, Little Venice and the old harbour are a short stroll apart. For anywhere else, the taxi stands are in front of the OTE building and at Fabrika, where the buses for the southern beaches also leave.
What time do clubs in Mykonos Town open?
Each sets its own hours: WE ❤ MYK Club opened its doors at midnight in 2026, Lío becomes a club at 00:30, and Skandinavian is open from 20:00 to 05:30.
Is Little Venice a nightlife area?
It is where many nights begin: some of its seafront houses are now bars and cafés, and the municipality recommends it for sunset drinks before moving on to Matogianni and the clubs.
Do you need ID for clubs in Mykonos Town?
Greek law keeps under-18s out of clubs and bars and asks staff to check age with an official document. Lío is 18+, and Skandinavian says its door staff may ask for ID.

From day to night
Areas & towns
Ano Mera and the quiet side of Mykonos
Away from the harbour and the beach clubs, Mykonos has a second centre: Ano Mera, a village of 1,459 people in the middle of the island, grown around a monastery that the islanders consider their protector. Here is what the municipality tells about it, how to get there, and two quiet corners of the north worth adding.
Festivals & big dates
Mykonos public holidays 2027: the Greek calendar and the island's own feasts
Mykonos keeps the Greek calendar and adds dates of its own: a patron saint's holiday in October, an icon carried across the island in Lent, and a carnival that ends on the harbour. No 2027 programme has been published for the island yet, so every date here says what it rests on.
By day
Delos from Mykonos: the boat, the ticket and the hours
Delos is a half-day trip from Mykonos: a short crossing from the old port of Chora, a few hours among the ruins of the island where myth says Apollo and Artemis were born, and back in time for dinner. Here is how to do it with or without a tour, with the timetable, the ticket and the hours as the boat operator and the Greek Ministry of Culture publish them.

Paradise & Super Paradise
Two bays on the south coast, 5.5 and 7 km from Chora, where Mykonos keeps its beach-club culture. Their parties begin in the afternoon and, at Paradise, carry on until 07:00 in the club on the cliff above the sand. None of these nights is sold on this website; this is the lie of the land.
