What makes Fausto stand out

Fausto was opened on 22 August 1979 by Javier Aparicio, Patricio Muruaga and Patricio Sandoval. You’ll look in vain for a sign on the façade, so go by the house number.

Drag is the programme here: on Fridays the Dirty Dancers perform, and on Saturdays karaoke is followed by the big party. Musically the focus is on electronic music, with resident DJs such as Leo Arias, Roger Ortega and Luis Palacios at the decks. People dance on two floors.

Atmosphere and crowd

Guests praise the long history, the atmosphere, the music on both dance floors, friendly staff, clean toilets and entertaining drag shows. It fills up from about 1 am.
