Little Italy and Papi Chulo at Sizzle Zante: the two Italian nights, side by side

In short

Sizzle Club in Laganas ran two Italian nights in summer 2026: Little Italy on Tuesdays, with all-Italian music, and Papi Chulo on Thursdays from 23:00, with reggaeton, hip hop and trap. Both cost €15 with one drink, and no 2027 dates are published.

Same club, same price, same Italian crowd and a completely different soundtrack. Here's how to tell the two apart, what their listings said about hours and tickets, and how each one fitted into a Tuesday or a Thursday in Laganas.

What are Little Italy and Papi Chulo at Sizzle?

They were the two nights of summer 2026 that Sizzle Club gave over to an Italian crowd, sold on GetYourTickets, one on Tuesdays and one on Thursdays. Neither listing gives a first or last date, only the weekday.

They sit apart from the club's usual week. Sizzle calls itself the home of house music and runs its own nights on Monday, Wonderland, and Friday, Sneak, so these two brought a different sound into the same room for 500.

What is the difference between Little Italy and Papi Chulo?

The music: at Little Italy you sing, and at Papi Chulo you dance. Little Italy promised only Italian songs, from summer hits to the ones everyone shouts along to, and its poster claimed the title of first Italian party in Laganas.

Papi Chulo is less Italian in sound than its crowd suggests. Its DJ set was reggaeton, hip hop and trap, and the marketing wavered between the hottest Latin party in Zante on the ticket page and the hottest Italian party in Laganas on the poster.

What time do the Sizzle Italian nights start?

Papi Chulo's listing is clear, from 23:00 until dawn, and Little Italy's 2026 listing and poster give no time at all. The 2025 listing had it from 23:00 until late, every Tuesday from 22 July to 19 August 2025, but that is another edition.

Sizzle's own rule is different again: front bar from 21:00 and club doors at midnight. So you could well be at the bar for a while before the room opens, and the time on your ticket is the one to trust.

Did you need to buy in advance?

Yes, by their own rules: both listings said advance tickets were compulsory and places limited, and neither mentions a sale at the door. With 500 places, the only capacity published by a venue on our Zante pages, the warning is at least plausible.

The price didn't move: €15 with one drink included, in 2025 and again in 2026, for both nights. Nothing in the listings covers a dress code or a minimum age, so we don't give one.

What else could you do on the same day?

On a Tuesday, the Beach Party at Infinity ended at 21:00, about 270 m from Sizzle in a straight line. That left an easy walk to the strip, while the white-themed Martedì Bianco was the rival for the same night, about 6.5 km away at Club Barrage in Argasi.

On a Thursday, the Paradiso Sunset Party finished at 22:00, about 610 m from Sizzle, an hour before Papi Chulo's start. Both days could be planned as one long Italian evening on the Laganas strip.

Will Little Italy and Papi Chulo return in 2027?

That isn't confirmed. Both ran in 2025 and in 2026; as of 5 November 2026, GetYourTickets has no Zante nights on sale and we have seen no 2027 dates from Sizzle. Keep an eye on our next-season page, which will list any 2027 dates once they are official.

Quick answers

What time does Little Italy start at Sizzle?

Its 2026 listing and poster give no hour, so we can't confirm one. The 2025 listing said 23:00 until late, and Sizzle Club itself says its front bar opens at 21:00 and its club doors at midnight. If the night returns, go by the time on your ticket, since the three sources don't line up.

What music do they play at Papi Chulo in Zante?

Reggaeton, hip hop and trap, according to both the 2026 ticket page and the poster. The label says Latin, but the night was sold to Italians on holiday, with what the listing calls a 100 % Italian atmosphere. It ran on Thursdays at Sizzle Club in Laganas in 2026, from 23:00 until dawn.

How much were tickets for Little Italy and Papi Chulo?

Both nights were listed at €15 with one drink included, in 2025 and in 2026. These are the prices on their past GetYourTickets listings and not a guide to next summer, because no 2027 tickets or dates have been published yet. Neither listing mentions a separate door price.

Are Little Italy and Papi Chulo on the same night as Sizzle's house parties?

No. In 2026 Little Italy took Tuesdays and Papi Chulo took Thursdays, while the club's own website lists Wonderland on Mondays and Sneak on Fridays. So the Italian nights and the house nights didn't overlap, even though they share a room, a bar and the same midnight door time set by the club.

Could I do a beach party and a Sizzle night on the same day?

Yes, going by the 2026 timetables. On Tuesdays, Infinity's beach party ended at 21:00, about 270 m from Sizzle in a straight line. On Thursdays, the Paradiso Sunset Party ended at 22:00, about 610 m away, and Papi Chulo began at 23:00. No 2027 timetable exists yet, so this describes last summer.
