Best nightclubs Spain

This authentic cavern on the cliffside, once inhabited by troglodytes, is worth a visit. Now refurbished as a club, it is a place to enjoy the sunset or, later in the night, to dance. The music produced by the club is on sale in the shop at the entrance. At night, the place becomes a discotheque that would not be out of place in Ibiza. The music is often quite commercial and the dance floor is located on the terrace, 50 metres above the water. One of the most spectacular nightclubs in Europe.

L'Ushuaïa is a 5-star hotel that organizes impressive open-air parties where thousands of electro fans gather around its huge swimming pool, and all this in the middle of the afternoon (from 5pm to midnight). The chic detail? rooms to rent - without beds - to attend the DJ sessions in small groups, with an unbeatable view of the stage, and of course a well-stocked mini bar, a whirlpool and a massage service! Still, it will cost you around 2,500 euros a day to afford this luxury... A place that has become cult.

After opening its doors in 1982, the Sidecar quickly became a reference for ungerdround sounds. In Plaça Reial, the somewhat cramped premises are representative of the alternative style of music offered: ska, funk, punk, rock, etc. It is a must for Barcelona nights, where local youth and tourists looking for entertainment gather. In addition to its concerts and DJ nights, the Sidecar is also known for its activities: exhibitions, theater, cinema, gastronomy, etc.

Located on the harbour, Jazzbah is a very popular establishment with the locals, which is usually reached after passing by La Margarete. It is a large bar with several floors and different atmospheres. Downstairs, the Jazzbah Club, with resident DJs and a stage for live concerts, a large program with renowned artists. Check it out on site or on their website. On the^1st floor, the Terrace-Chill Out, ideal for a drink with a beautiful view on the port. Private lounge area.

The Marula Cafe? Cañas, hard liquor and chupitos in a mess, a beautiful terrace as soon as the sunny days arrive, live concerts and DJs until the early morning (and every day) and a high quality programming, devoted in particular to black, soul and funk music... This is the recipe for this multi-faceted club, which also operates in Barcelona and has been a fixture in Madrid for decades. This den of thirty-year-olds partying in the capital also offers excellent mojitos. A must in La Latina.

Here is an ambitious project that was born in 2012. L'Ocaña has seen things in a big way: it is a café with a terrace, a restaurant and a club all in one. From this place, located under the arcades of the Plaça Reial, emanates a breath of freedom inherited from José Pérez Ocaña. In the years following the dictatorship, this Barcelona painter had indeed claimed the rights of homosexuals. It was not uncommon to see him walking around dressed as a Sevillian, with a fan in his hand. In the same spirit, the extravagance is always in order at this address.

The most emblematic club in Ibiza since its opening in 1973, when it advocated the free expression of the hippie movement and hedonists of all kinds. The Pasha consists of several rooms, not forgetting the terrace, which enjoys a pleasant view and slightly quieter decibels. One of the evenings not to be missed: the Flower Power. Rock, soul and disco music from the 1960's to 1980's, flowers to the ear, recreate the peace and love atmosphere that was the breeding ground for the birth of the club. Many events in season!

In 1960, Joan Rosselló created the Jamboree, the club where "the tribes meet", according to the Zulu origin of the name chosen. This music bar, located in Plaça Reial, has become emblematic thanks to the jazz legends who have played there: Bill Coleman, Chet Baker, Lou Bennet, Kenny Clarke and Dexter Gordon, among others. Names that make you dream! Currently, jazz concerts are organized every night, then funk, fusion, folk, etc., to dance until the end of the night. This club, with its stone vaults, is a real institution in Barcelona.

For those who want to dance to exhaustion and make the most of the night, this club presents the perfect basement for a crazy nightlife! You'll find electronic, techno, hip-hop, reggaeton, R&B and more. The incredible work of local and international DJs performing here resonates and vibrates off the walls, amidst a light show that will blow your mind. Get your energy up before you go! You'll find the event calendar online to attend the beat of your choice.

Just a stone's throw from the Victoria Eugenia Theatre and the bridge leading to the Kursaal, this small jazz and blues club offers quality live concerts every evening. On the ground floor, a contemporary art gallery exhibits the works of young talents and established artists. You have to go down the stairs into this basement with stone walls and have a drink by candlelight. Behind the wooden counter or comfortably seated on one of its small tables, you can enjoy a good cocktail while enjoying the music!

The Costello is a bar, club and concert hall during the week, but the basement quickly turns into a nightclub on weekends, mixing rock, pop and fusion. In this vaulted room with exposed stones, looking like a cave, you can listen to good sound with a rather innovative programming for the neighborhood. After starting the night in the chill area, with a cocktail in hand, you can wiggle your hips in the middle of a rather Madrid clientele.

Since 1979, this emblematic nightclub located on the Promenade de la Concha has been welcoming celebrities passing through San Sebastián for the film festival. With its seventies decor and sublime views over the bay, it is also a reference place for DJs from the international scene (David Guetta, Bob Sinclar or Roger Sanchez have been there). In 2019, the Bataplan made its debut in the World's Best Clubs Top 100 ranking. In the summer, its terrace is a privileged spot to watch the sunset against the backdrop of the chill-house.

The club, inaugurated in 1985, occupies an old textile factory in the Sant Gervasi neighborhood. In a New York style, it has three floors with several bars and a VIP room that has seen many celebrities, from Leonardo Di Caprio to Naomi Campbell and Freddie Mercury. It's a trendy and relaxed atmosphere to have fun in the middle of an industrial type decoration, very popular with young people who come to dance on hip-hop, reggaeton and RnB rhythms. The talent of its DJs has proven to be the key point of this address!

Unquestionably the club of Barcelona summers! Located in the Olympic port, almost feet in the sand, this restaurant-club offers a chic and exclusive atmosphere, to the rhythm of international house, hip-hop, reggaeton and some great hits. You can dine on a delicious Mediterranean meal on a large terrace overlooking the beach, decorated with white seats, before dancing on the dance floor until the wee hours! Since its opening in 2007, all the biggest DJs in the world have performed there: David Guetta, Bob Sinclar, etc.

Founded in 1999 and completely renovated in 2013, Eden has undergone a real facelift by transforming its various rooms into a single large space equipped with a new sound system (Incubus Gold, from Void, exclusive to Ibiza). The place has already seen some beautiful people: Pete Tong, Disclosure, Goldfish, Markus Schulz, Luciano, Cristian Varela or Lady Gaga... English attendance and a very good night for house music lovers. In addition to the main room, the club has another space called NeXt, several bars and two VIP areas.

Opened in 1975 by the owner of the famous Café del Mar, this nightclub has always been able to keep up with the times and attract a large number of night owls. The setting is quite surprising, with a decoration that evokes the tropics, Miami and Egypt at the same time. Every Friday at the water party, or fiesta del agua, the dance floor turns into a real swimming pool with water up to the waist. In terms of atmosphere, Es Paradis is rather frequented by the young holidaymakers of Sant Antoni, so it is much less classy than the other clubs on the island.

Cosmopolitan, with a beautiful view of the Mediterranean, this club restaurant has it all. Its doors open early so you can enjoy Mediterranean and Asian dishes with a wonderful cocktail on the terrace. In the evening, the red decor entices you to join in on one of their events where expert DJs will have you dancing to the best hits every day of the year to the rhythm of House, RnB, Reggaeton, Funky and more. Don't forget your swimsuit, the night often ends with a swim!
