Ios Nightlife Guide 2026: Bar Crawls, Pool Parties, Wristbands, and the Ultimate Route

November 12, 2025

Most people land in Ios for one reason. The nights. This guide gives you the full plan so you know exactly where to go, when to go, and who to go with.

Start at Nio Fusion. Move into the bar crawl. Use the wristband. Finish at the clubs. Then link the whole week into the Mykonos–Ios–Santorini island-hopping route.

Start Every Night at Nio Fusion

Your night starts at Nio Fusion. This is the meet-up spot. This is where the whole crowd links up.
You grab a drink. You check in. You join the group moving out together at 11pm.
Simple. Clean. Zero confusion.

Join the Official Life is a Beach Party Bar Crawl

After Nio, you jump straight into the LIABP Bar Crawl.
This is the easiest way to meet people fast.
You move bar to bar as one big group.
Entries covered. Queues sorted. Route planned.

  • Events across the whole week

Pool Parties, Events, and the Night Schedule

Ios runs a weekly cycle:
Pool party → sunset bars → bar crawl → clubs.
You join the same flow every day, and the group keeps getting bigger.

The standard 7-day route is:
Mykonos → Ios → Santorini
