There are many cafe's and restaurants in Bologna that offer live music, usually at night. Music ranges from ska and reggae to classical and jazz. Here are a few of the cities best live music venues.
At Officina Estragon there is always live music from Italian groups and local artists with special events such as the Skunk Anansie concert a couple of years ago. The venue is located in a large warehouse in the industrial area of Stalingrad but can only hold so many people so that if there is a concert of a popular group it is wise to go to the box office as soon as possible. Open 9pm-3am Tuesday-Sunday.
Until the beginning of the 80's the Osteria dell'Orsa was a haven for punks and skinheads. Then a new era began: jazz culture arrived in Bologna and the pub changed its tune. In the early years some great names played here including Chet Baker, Stan Getz, Steve Grossman. Now they hold concerts for local and national jazz artists. The venue is very pleasant with the lower room reserved for concerts whilst the pub itself is on the upper floor. Open 7pm-2am Monday-Sunday
Cabala's atmosphere is reserved and elegant. A few metres from the Torre degli Asinelli, the luxurious Cabala has a bar area with both bar and table service, a chill-out area with comfortable seats and a dance area. Every evening, from 10pm-4am there is live music in the piano bar with a pianist.
Cantine Bentivoglio. This jazz club is in the old wine cellars of the prestigious Palazzo Bentivoglio. It´s right in the heart of the university district -at the crossroads between Via delle Belle Arti and Via Mascarella- it is one of the most historic spots Bologna´s night life. The Cantina Bentivoglio has been synonomous with live jazz for over ten years. There is live music every evening and concerts of international reputation. The wine is excellent (supplied from the enormous wine cellar) and there is a choice to suit all palates and wallets. The club has a kind of warm rustic feeling to it and you can enjoy dinner there. If you love jazz and enjoy a glass of wine while you listen, or if you´re just looking for a chic evening out in Bologna, then this is the place for you! Open 8pm-2am Tuesday-Sunday.
