Nightclubs in Barcelona

Barcelona; like many other cities around the world has some great nightclubs. They range from student clubs to luxury clubs where the Barcelona footballers hang out. Many of them stay open until at least 6:00am which means you can literally dance all night! The clubs can be expensive but usually if you arrive before a certain time you will gain free entry into the club. Although often you will find people handing out flyers to gain free entry for most of the night.

Top 3 popular nightclubs include:

Sala Be Cool

One of the best clubs in Barcelona, it has top quality DJ’s that play Techno, House and Disco. People that travel to Sala Be Cool go to just because of the club but because of the music. It has one of the best sound systems in Barcelona.

Las Ramblas

Las Ramblas is one of the busiest streets in Barcelona and is a well known tourist attraction. The street has plenty to entertain you and is full of street sellers and famous for its human statues!

The street can get especially busy during the summer months but is well worth a visit. The street is home to the “La Boqueria” which is an old market that is full of people selling all kinds of foods from around the world. It’s a lot cheaper than the supermarkets and no doubt the food is fresher.

It is also home to the Teatre de Liceu” which is an opera house where you can see regular performances.

The Street is full of “human statues” that often come dressed in scary clothing! There is a statue that appears to be floating in the air which often draws many visitors! Towards the bottom end of Las Ramblas Plaza Real is situated. It is a plaza that is full of lovely restaurants and cafes. The ramblas leads down to the harbour so it’s defiantly worth a visit. I would recommend heading off Las Ramblas into the El Gotico area after to find a nice café or restaurant to eat in. As there are many tourists that use the street it has been known as being a target for pickpockets but the main advice is always look after your belongings and make sure that you have always got an eye on them. Las Ramblas is well served by the Barcelona metro system you can either get off at Plaza Cataunya image  image, Liceu image  or Drassanes image. Drassanes is at the bottom and Plaza Catalunya is at the top.
