Basel Nightlife
For a complete listing of events, pick up a copy of Basel Live, a booklet published every two weeks (written partially in English). Also note Events Highlights, a flyer printed every six months in English. Both are available at the tourist office and usually at hotel desks. If you'd like to play it by ear, the Steinenvorstadt is crowded with cinemas, bars, and young people, and on the Kleinbasel side there are late-night bars along Oberer Rheinweg.
