I'm leaving next week for Punta, then onto to BsAs for a week starting March 15. I read about the tragic nightclub fire in Once a few months ago, and the subsequent shut-down of bars and nightclubs until fire safety can be checked at many venues in BsAs. While I'm not exactly the world's biggest party animal, I was definitely planning on enjoying the great nightlife in BsAs. I read recently that many nightclub venues remain closed because of these restrictions. Is this true? Does it apply to all places, or just to those larger halls with live music? I'm not typically into big venues - my last visit to BsAs, I enjoyed places such as Gran Bar Danzon, Million, Deep Blue (the one in Recoleta), and places in Palermo such as Mondo Bizzarro. Can anyone tell me, what is the current status of re-openings of bars and nightclubs in BsAs?

Thanks in advance to all who can respond with helpful answers. I'm very excited to be returning to BsAs later this month!
Some night clubs in BsAs are quiet more for reasons related to people escaping the city in the summer than even from the "bribe the fireman" checks. You will be able to find most bars and nightclubs open.

Edit: Nearly all bars are fine, but some nightclubs are still having issues, but that list is shrinking [even if it may involve a contribution to the proverbial "fireman's calendar" or cause of the day. ]
