In therms of enrollment the U of A is the second largest university in the state on Arizona, making Tucson the home for 36 000 students who are waiting for the sun to come down and hit one of the many college hangouts and dance clubs. But because Tucson is the second largest city in the state there is much more to it's nightlife than college bars, you can also find quiet wine bars and chill-out lounges, brewpubs, casinos, gay clubs, western saloon and sports bars.

When it comes to nightlife in Tucson the younger crowd in Tucson usually prefer to go out around the university Main Gate area, 4th avenue and the downtown area. This are trendy, artsy and hip areas specially popular among the students and for the several music venues showcasing bands and the happy hours.

Closer to downtown we can not foget to mention Tucson opera for those with a unique musical taste.
