![The 10 best nightclubs in Barcelona for an epic night out](https://offloadmedia.feverup.com/barcelonasecreta.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/08083722/shutterstock_231094354-1-1024x683.jpg)
After a few quiet beers in Plaça del Sol and a slice of pizza to take away, there is always an indecent proposal: “It’s 22:30, shall we buy to make some cubatas?” If you say yes, there’s no turning back.
Barcelona’s nightlife offers us endless possibilities, from discotheques with strict dresscode to dive bars in which you end up not knowing how or why. They say that you don’t know a city well if you don’t know what it’s like at night.
So it doesn’t matter if you are more into techno, bachata or commercial music, because after an exhaustive research, a few drinks and some sleepless nights, we have determined which are the best clubs in Barcelona, regardless of their style, so you can dance until dawn.
Here are the must-haves for every Barcelona party-goer .
Razzmatazz, get lost in the crowd
One of the two great classics of the Barcelona party. This nightclub offers, thanks to its countless rooms, several parties in a single night. What do you want something commercial? So you have a commercial. What do you prefer techno? Well, techno. The only problem it has is that is very labyrinthine, but if you go up two floors, turn right and cross over to the other dimension you will surely find the room you are looking for. It’s perfect to go with the group of friends with whom you don’t share musical tastes, as you’ll find a little something for everyone.
📍 C/ dels Almogàvers, 122
Latin Palace Barcelona, dance bachata until dawn
This is the best Latin disco in Barcelona. If you go, you will have to watch out for the dresscode, as you should be smart and avoid shorts in summer. They offer, from Monday to Sunday, a varied number of styles. It has two rooms, the main room, where urban genres such as reggaeton, afrobeat and R&B are played, and the Sky Room, where you can dance to the rhythm of bachata, merengue, salsa or vallenato.
📍 C/ de Ramon Trias Fargas, 2-4
Apolo, a classic of Barcelona nightlife
The classic of classics. Anyone who considers themselves to be from Barcelona must have ended up at Apolo on a weekday at some point, without really knowing why. Their music is varied and depending on the day of the week you can find everything from techno to 80s music.
About Apollo there is much, and little, to say at the same time. It exudes the essence of Barcelona to perfection: all styles and profiles fit in, the same day you will find hippie people and super arranged people, even, with a little luck, Rosalia and Rauw Alejandro.
📍 C/ Nou de la Rambla, 113
Jamboree, for a night without end
To go down to the Jamboree is to take it for granted that the night is going to drag on. Any night owl in the city has seen the queue in front of the mythical club in Plaza Real, sighed and thought: It will be worth it. No mistake, its arched basement, which hosts concerts of jazz stars during the week, becomes a groove cave on weekends, where rhythm & blues and rap make dancing pure flow.
Moog, the most Berlin-like Barcelona
The Moog is the darkness of the night, the most Berlin of Barcelona’s clubs. Hidden in a dark alley the discotheque keeps behind its doors a multiverse of heavy electronica, in a small room where some of the world’s greatest DJs have passed through. Newbies of the night should abstain.
📍 C/ de l’Arc del Teatre, 3
Input, feel the electronic music
More electronics for your body. There are no distinctions here, the younger Moog’s competition also concentrates people with a single interest: Electronic music. Slightly bigger than the Moog, but not that big, so hurry, because it’s not uncommon for the venue to hang the sold-out sign soon.
francesc Ferrer i Guàrdia Ave., 13
Bling Bling, offset at upper diagonal
This discotheque is located in the upper Zone of Barcelona and is the fashionable club among the most affluent of the city. If you want to blend in among them you should take care of your aesthetics and, if possible, wear a shirt, pink or blue, and nautical shoes or moccasins. Besides, we all know that the Cayetans are experts in the art of going out, so if you go, a good time is guaranteed.
📍 C/ Tuset, 8-10
Sutton, for the most exclusive
Sutton is a bit like Bling Bling, but with more showmanship. Celebrities, politicians and soccer players rub shoulders there, the crème de la crème of the Condal City. It is considered one of the most select and exclusive nightclubs in Barcelona, as evidenced by its luxurious decor and the outfits of the attendees. A high society party in every sense of the word.
📍C/ Tuset, 13
Marula, good vibes and an alternative touch
Marula’s nights are full of funk and disco, with tropical overtones and danceable psychedelia. They often play the vinyls live and organize jams, meetings in which to improvise musically. Its atmosphere is quite alternative and gives off good vibes. You’ll find young people, locals and tourists, but not the guiri profile of Passeig del Born, but one a little more select, who do not come just for the party, but for the music.
📍C/ dels Escudellers, 49
Shoko, dawn in Barceloneta
This disco is a bit more geeks and it’s hard to find locals. It is ideal to take your friend who has come to visit you from abroad or to go out on a silly Tuesday, because there is a party every other day. We recommend you to start the night having dinner at their restaurant overlooking the sea, have a few drinks and finish by closing the disco and watching the sun rise over La Barceloneta.
📍 Pg. Marítim de la Barceloneta, 36
