Nightlife in Watford
Watford sits just outside London, with a busy town centre and fast trains to Euston. Here is how a night out here works.
The Parade
The Parade, at the top of the High Street, is where most of the town's restaurants and bars gather. It has the calmer, more grown up feel, and suits an evening that starts with dinner.

The High Street
Further down, the High Street carries the busier, later bars. It is lively at the weekend and quieter in the week.

The Colosseum and the Palace Theatre
The Watford Colosseum hosts concerts and the Palace Theatre has plays and shows, and both make an evening that begins with a performance easy to plan.
