Arjon's International Club is one of the longest-running and most popular nightclubs in Central ArjonsOutsideOfBuilding 293.JPGTexas. The club is known for its international mix of dance music, from Cuban boleros and Colombian cumbias to Mexican rancheras and Puerto Rican bombas. In between, the DJs or the house band throw in an engaging spice of disco, Tejano polkas, R&B, soul and pop/rock.

Opened in 1995, Arjon's is one of the city's few dance clubs that has lasted more than 12 years. One secret is the club's continual and subtle shifts in emphasis. It has gone from booking live Tejano bands to playing a heavy mix of salsa and merengue to reggaeton, often ahead of the club and live music trends. BSFplainbeta6 270.JPG

The main bar is huge and designed as a British pub. In the back casual area are three TV screens, often tuned to the top sports games of the day. The club has lots of windows and huge music murals. Out back is a gorgeous patio with lots of greenery.
