The Zante Strip 2027: The Ultimate Nightlife Guide

Last updated: 15th September 2026

The Zante Strip is where you’ll be spending your nights on holiday until the sunrise. It’ll be like your second home and before you know it you’ll know exactly where the shops are, where your favourite pre-drinks bar is and which club you plan to end up in.

Although the whole road is 3KM long, the Zante nightlife is within a 1KM strip towards the bottom of the road that leads up from the beach. This means it only takes about 10 minutes to walk from one end of the Zante Strip to the other. This is the main strip in Laganas but the mini-strip road that connects and leads off to the right shown in the map below, Kalamaki Road, is a great place to start a bar crawl or pre-drinks.

Where Is The Zante Strip?

The Zante strip is located in the resort of Laganas which is in the South of the Greek island and where you’ll be wanting to stay. It’s just a 15 minute taxi drive away from the airport which only costs approximately €20.

If you arrive late at night, you’ll see the lights from the strip as your plane comes in to land…you can’t miss it! Not to be confused with the airport strip, you’ll still be wanting to take a taxi or transfer bus from the airport to the Zante nightlife. The walk just from the very top of the road to the beach is 30 minutes and much longer during the day as the heat will wear you down!

The Zante Strip By Day

The Zante Strip by day is a very different scene to when it comes alive at night. Provided you’re not recovering from last night’s antics, there are plenty of daytime activities you can indulge in to make the most of your Zante Holiday. 

Located at the end of the main beach off the Zante strip is Cameo Island. For only a 5 Euro entry, you get access to a Mamma Mia-style island with clear blue water, a beach cafe, and a perfect place for exploring with lots of photo opportunities.  

Alternatively, towards the end of the strip, is where you can find places to rent a boat for the day. As long as you have your driving license, abide by the safety talk (and make sure you take a photo of the boat before you leave the shore), you can enjoy a day off the coast of Zante, visiting places such as Turtle Island.

If you want to keep the party vibes going, you can enjoy a day of poolside drinking games, a bottle of champagne, and making the most of day-drinking, whilst topping up the holiday tan at our Champagne Sessions Pool Party included in the Ultimate Events Package.

Similarly, if you want to explore the coast of Zante accompanied by good music, cheap drinks, or a VIP service and bottle, our Pukka Up Boat Party will be a perfect daytime event for you, meeting at Infinity Beach Club located at the end of the strip. 

If you are still hanging, then chilled days never go amiss in Zante. With the best-rated beaches in the world, you’re not going to be stuck in your hotel room waiting for the night’s event. Laganas beach is a 10-minute walk from Kalamaki Road. If you don’t fancy spending money on a sunbed down the beach, you can always head to Infinity Beach Club, which is free entry provided there isn’t an event running. 

Restaurants On The Zante Strip

Restaurants on the Zante Strip are vast and vary in cuisine. Whether you want a full mixed-grill or just the standard €3 pizza slices from Munchies, Laganas has something for everyone. Craving a kebab after a night out? Don’t worry, the Zante strip has you covered! Ask for gyros (pronounced “gih-ross”), and you’re sorted! Fancy something a little less guilty? Head to one of our top picks below:

With the PartyHardTravel Discount Wristband  working in more restaurants than ever for Zante 2027, you’ll be wanting to eat out every night on the strip because of the huge savings you’ll make. Even if you’re staying in an all-inclusive, we bet you can’t resist a discounted trip to Zante Nandos!

We’ve put together the three best restaurants in Zante here to save you time researching for your party holiday:

The Zante Strip By Night

The Laganas Strip by night is what you came to Zante for. Expect incredibly lively nightlife, drinks deals throughout the evening and an all-round lit atmosphere. You’re best off starting on Kalamaki Road (the mini-strip in Laganas) and making your way down to the beach. Kalamaki Road is mostly bars and restaurants with main strip leading towards the clubs.

If you want to impress your mates with that champagne lifestyle or Instagram pic whilst you’re on holiday, you don’t have to look far. Just head to one of the football penalty shootouts up and down the Zante strip. All you need to do is score 3 goals and boom, you’ve got yourself a bottle of champers…that’s pre-drinks sorted!

You’ll know where to stop on your nights out as you’ll see Party Hard Travel Discount Wristband posters in a lot of the bigger venues. These discounts are exclusive to Party Harders and honour better deals than PRs can offer!

Bars On The Zante Strip

The Zante Strip is decorated with bars from the beach up. With everything from frozen cocktails at Frozen Bubbles to the lively atmosphere at Aura Front bar connecting the strip to the club, there’s no chance you’re getting bored on the Zante strip!

If you’re looking for a more premium vibe, you can enjoy a cocktail along the beachfront at Brusco or Infinity Beach Club just off the bottom of the strip to start the night.  Or if you want to make the most of the Zante deals, take a visit to Sugar or Players located near the top of the strip. 

With the Party Hard Travel Discount Wristband working in almost every bar on the main strip, be sure to limit the pre-drinks in the hotel room. You might end up spending more had you just got your Fishbowls on the strip!

With over a hundred different bars, we’ve put together our top three best bars in Zante:

Clubs On The Zante Strip

Clubs in Zante are hard to miss. They are mostly all grouped towards the middle and bottom of the strip with huge LED lights, smoke machines, and CO2 cannons for the ultimate clubbing experience.

Over the past year, Zante has elevated itself again, often being compared to a new music scene similar to Ibiza! With the addition of new super clubs such as AURA, party goers have the choice to get immersed in the club atmosphere amongst the DJ or experience a more exclusive clubbing atmosphere with the addition of VIP areas and Booths. You now get more choice than ever in how you spend your nights dancing away on the Laganas strip.

The music scene varies hugely, so expect anything from cheesy classics, the newest house, and all the best R&B mixes. If there’s one thing Zante can offer its a good selection of music hosted in some of the best party venues!

Zante Events Packages through Party Hard Travel make sure you’re not stuck in the same club for the entirety of your holiday. Only the biggest and best 2027 Zante events and parties are booked and included in the Ultimate Events Package coming very shortly… With this in mind, our favourite three clubs in Zante are:

Hotels Near The Zante Strip

We only recommend hotels that Party Harders have rated before.

Zante is packed full of hotels near the strip. Although there aren’t any party hotels as such, there are hotels catered towards a lively atmosphere. These hotels are something to look for to ensure you’re not drinking at the poolside bar with people three times your age!

You’ll be charged a Tourist Tax when checking in. This amount is dependent on the star rating of the hotel, the number of nights you are staying and the number of rooms booked. The amount is not typically more than 5 euros per night. It’s also very normal in party resorts for hotels to charge a returnable room deposit. These room deposits are typically €50 euros per person and returned to you after your stay (providing you haven’t had the paint party in your room!). You’ll get these deposits back after the hotel staff give your room a check over when you check-out so don’t go too hard the night before – give yourself plenty of time to check-out and get to the airport.

More than likely, there will be a damages list in your room. You don’t want to blow your spending money on any new furniture so treat the place with respect. After all, this is going to be your home for the week.

As a final cost, if you’re staying in Zante in July or August, you’ll also be wanting air-con which is usually €50 per room per week. Just don’t leave the air-con on overnight whilst you’re sleeping or you’ll end up with the infamous Zante Cough!

Plan Your Zante Strip Nights

If your holiday dates are already booked, start by checking what is running during your week. Some Zante events take place on set days, while others run across selected dates in the season, so it is worth checking the Zante events calendar before you travel.

If you only want one or two nights sorted, single event tickets may be enough. If you want more of your week locked in before you fly, the Zante Ultimate Events Package is the best place to start. It helps your group sort the big nights early while still leaving time for beach days, pre-drinks and nights out on the strip.

You can also head back to the main Zante Events 2026 page to compare events, packages and calendar options.
