NY DJ Rocks San Juan tonight at The Pier

NYC’s DJ Nutritious will be mixin’, spinnin’ and scratchin’ tonight at The Pier!  With a reputation as “a party DJ of the highest ranks” this should be a great party at one of San Juan’s most ‘happening’ locations.  Located on the beach, in the sand, by the bonfire – just off Beach Avenue. Enjoy ice cold drinks, while plenty of hammocks and beach chairs round out the experience.

Starts tonight, Dec 12 8pm

Live Music in San Juan

For over a year Coquitos Bar reigned as king of the live music scene in San Juan del Sur.  Unfortunately, Coquitos is no more.  As anyone who is familiar with our town knows, there is a constant coming and going of people and businesses… but the energy remains the same.  Fortunately, two great local venues have stepped up to continue to keep live music happening in San Juan.

The legendary Open Mic Nights have moved to Pau Hana (aka Kenny’s place) on the beach just down from the Eskimo.  Pau Hana is also hosting Sunday night jazz.  The Irish House bar, just down the street from the market, is offering live music on many Friday and Saturday nights.

Of course the Crazy Crab disco occasionally offers live music to their regular disco offerings; Bambu Beach has been known to host the odd really great concert and various other events happen spontaneously and regularly.  We try and keep up here at San Juan del Sur Guide… but some of the best gigs are so last minute it’s almost impossible!  Keep your eyes and ears open, and you’ll find the fun.
