Going dancing is always a great idea. To celebrate, to go out and have a good time. I mean who doesn’t like Friday or Saturday nights to go out and sparkle until the crack of dawn? The brave ones even during the week, but with work the next day I absolutely could not make it. Not sure which of Milan’s many discos to go to? We have selected a few nightclubs where you can have a good time late into the night.
After all, what’s the harm if you feel like partying and coming back late, as long as you don’t do anything stupid. A drink, a spin on the dance floor and the night flies by as Cuccarini sang.
