Nightlife
Unfortunately the 'lock-out' laws have really killed Kings Cross late night life. You can't enter a venue after 01:30am so make sure you are inside before then. Once in, you can't leave. Madness I know. So some of my recommendation are out of the area where the lock-out doesn't apply.
Late-night venue with international DJs, check their facebook page for gigs, sometimes they are closed on Fridays.
