In this article, you will find a guide on the things to do in Torino at night, a selection of places you can go if you want to spend an unforgettable night in the Savoy city.

Aperitivo in Torino

A typical Turin night out must start with an aperitivo. This practice, in fact, was born in Piedmont, before it became popular in Italy and all over the world. Usually, aperitivo starts at 6 p.m. and lasts until 10 p.m. in almost every bar in the city. Firstly, the classic Turin aperitivo was original with Vermouth, as people used to drink it before eating. Then, they started eating something with it, until the aperitivo took the shape it has nowadays.

Many places offer aperitivo, which most of the time is also accompanied by live music or some other events organized by the bars.

The squares in the center

The squares in the center are the star of the Turin nightlife. Among the main squares, there are Piazza Castello and Piazza San Carlo, near Teatro Regio. There you will find many bars where you can drink a cocktail with your friends.

Moreover, there are also Piazza Carignano and Piazza Carlo Alberto. In those squares, you will find many trendy places that offer live entertainment with your drinks.

Lastly, Piazza Vittorio Veneto is another one of the main squares in Torino. You will find here some of the most loved bars in the city, as they offer live music and some particular cocktails.

Quadrilatero Romano

The zone of Quadrilatero Romano is one of the oldest but also one of the classiest. In fact, in this area, you will find many elegant and quite expensive restaurants, where you can taste the fine Piedmontese wines while eating some local products.

Quadrilatero also hosts many bars where you can have an aperitivo or gourmet restaurants where you can taste the typical Piedmontese dishes in a modern way.

San Salvario

San Salvario is a neighborhood that’s become popular only in recent years. It is the favorite place for young people, who mainly gather around Largo Saluzzo. San Salvario is an alternative, quite a hipster zone, where you can drink and eat at a low price. It is loved by young people because the many bars and restaurants offer live music and organize cultural events.

Lungo Po

This area is particularly attractive for aperitivo because restaurants and bars have terraces where you can eat while looking at the sunset over the river. Dinner or an aperitivo in this place is just spectacular, especially in spring and summer, when the sun is out for longer.

You will also be able to admire the sky reflected on the river Po, about which Subsonica even wrote a song called Il Cielo su Torino.
