Tarapoto offers a few areas for evening entertainment, each with its own character.The main square, Plaza de Armas, is a focal point for evening activity. You'll find a selection of bars and restaurants with outdoor seating here. It's a good spot for a relaxed drink and people-watching. The places here tend to close by midnight on weekdays, but some stay open later on weekends.For a more concentrated selection of bars and places with music, head to the area around Jirón Jiménez Pimentel, particularly between Jirón San Martín and Jirón Alfonso Ugarte. This street has several bars that play a mix of local and international music, and some offer dancing. You'll find places ranging from casual pubs to those with more of a club atmosphere, and they usually stay open later than the establishments on the main square.Another area that's developed for evening entertainment is along the Carretera Fernando Belaunde Terry, just outside the city centre, heading towards the airport. Here, you'll find larger establishments, including some with live music, as well as more spacious restaurants that cater to groups.
