Jacksonville is a huge city, so there in no shortage of places to party! Downtown is a great area to check out the local music scene. If you are looking for an artsy area, Riverside has several great bars including several gay bars with awesome drag shows. Jacksonville beach is also a popular nightspot and St. John's Town Center has several bars. Always make sure you have a DD or take a cab. Jacksonville has several officers who do nothing but try to catch people driving after drinking. Don't risk your safety or the DUI!
