Triniti

Triniti

Bars 40 ratings

This club stands out for its strict no cross-over drink policy, meaning you buy a drink in one section and it stays there. Triniti (formerly Backstreet) recently got a retro metro makeover and now offers two distinct spaces under one roof. The dance floor side is smoke-free, while the pool table lounge welcomes smoking. Crowds typically show up after 11:30 pm on Fridays, and the 18+ door policy brings a younger mix. If you're up for more dancing after, Discovery Night Club is another spot nearby.

Discovery Night Club

Discovery Night Club

Bars 3 (40)

Discovery Night Club opens Saturday evenings at 10 PM and keeps going until 5 AM. This 30,000-square-foot venue spreads across three rooms: the Disco-Tech room for EDM, a lobby bar for hip-hop and Top 40, and a showroom featuring drag shows starting at 12:30 AM. An outdoor patio with seating is also available. The club has been owned by Norman since it opened in 1979 and has hosted major acts like Coolio and Aaron Carter. The crowd on a given night can lean mostly straight, according to recent reviews, and cover is reportedly in the $12 to $15 range. It's 21+ only. Regulars appreciate the bartenders and the sheer space to dance, though some find the decor a bit dated. If you're up late on a Saturday and want multiple music options under one roof, it's a unique option in Little Rock.
