Entertainment options are rather poorly advertised in Dhaka despite the fact there is an absolute plethora of events to attend. Newspapers, the ideal source for such events, tend to provide coverage only after the event has happened. A starting point is to ask your colleagues or Bangladeshi friends what events are going on in the city as the most interesting events tend only to be spread by word of mouth. Otherwise you could try browsing www.somewhereindhaka.net to see if they have anything that takes your fancy.
The international jet-set might find Dhaka to be a bit of a letdown in terms of nightlife. But the reality is that there are many local drinking venues and events happening underneath the surface, but rarely are these places advertised or discussed openly. Depending on which way the political winds are blowing you could find a full-blown nightclub having a hip-hop party one evening or a nearcomplete shutdown of all drinking venues due to a temporary ban on imported alcohol.
