The city’s
nightlife commissioner
has launched a flashy new Ottawa at Night
website
as a directory of venues offering “attractions at night” across the city.
The website features 99 nightlife spots categorized by type, location — east, west, south, central and rural — and also by “vibes” like alternative, hip-hop, karaoke, drag, standup and folk/country.
The directory includes a “safety guide” along with brief outlines and links to the city’s repertory cinemas, live music venues, bars, theatres, nightclubs and comedy clubs.
The city invited any other operators to contact the city’s nightlife office with requests to include their venue in the directory. The nightlife office said it will be offering safety workshops for venue employees with registration dates to be posted later in the fall.
