We study the night urban space structure at Murcia, from the hypothesis according to which this structure strongly depends on the distribution of party and music pubs and its social perception. By a registry of pubs, Lynch model and surveys, we have defined four principle functional areas at night, which are substructured by a particular way. As factors that more define social perception, we highlight the age of space users and its interests when going out at night. The work ends with a schematic graphic representation of real night urban space.
