Club scenes are more Spanish in flavor and parties are hard running whole night.
The only problem here in the city is entry fees to the clubs, pubs and parties are expensive when compared with other cities.

The government has restricted selling of alcohol to the youngsters below 20 years of age in bars and pubs and below 18 years in restaurants and night clubs.

Many live bands are full in life with local beers that are loved by many tourists who hog for it. The only drawback is the entry fees and the price of the drink due to which the nightlife of Stockholm is called the boring by the fellows who could not bear the price. But to be honest, it is really expensive and the nightlife there sometime means as if it is not for the normal people and is only for the riches. Another point being negative is the age limit and youngsters in the teen's restriction for alcohols, but has been made on point of health and when seen commercially it is not heard, and who cares!
