This is what the night looks like.
Cartagena's biggest week of the year: 70,000+ people fill the Centro Histórico for the Independence parade and the Festival Náutico concerts. Rhythms is walking distance from all of it — Bando Night, two Náutico after-parties, Reinado Night. Late kitchen, bottle service, DJ till 2 AM.
The Gran Desfile by day, the bay concerts by night — and when they end, the Centro is where the city parties. Here's the week at Rhythms.
The Gran Desfile fills the city by day. By night, the celebration's just starting. Independence colors, DJ, doors open.
The bay concert ends, the city spills into Centro. This is the after-party. Late kitchen, bottle service, DJ till 2. Pre-sell your VIP table now — this one sells out.
Night two, bigger. The whole Centro is a party. Reserve ahead — walk-ins won't find a seat this night.
Coronation night, city still buzzing. Celebration-forward — dinner, cocktails, the good seats.
The final night of the biggest weekend of the year. Sports, hookah, one last celebration.
Carrera 7 #34-34, Centro Histórico — minutes from the parade route and where the city lands after the bay concerts.
Nov 13 & 14 sell out. Lock your table or bottle service now and it's waiting in the middle of it all.
Caribbean and Jamaican plates till 1 AM every night — the only move after a concert.
412 reviews. Cartagena's favorite bar for travelers — and for Cartagena's biggest week.
