World’s Top Party Cities

If your ideal trip includes rest and relaxation, you should probably stay away from Forbes’ picks for the World’s Top Party Cities. Once the sun sets on these global locales, drinks, dancing, and debauchery reigns until it rises again. Pub crawls, countless discos, open-air beach parties, and casinos are just a few of the traits that make a city worthy of ultimate party status. While you’ll find the usual suspects on the list – New York City, St-Tropez & Rio de Janeiro – there are certainly a few surprises in there, especially to those without a worn passport.
