Apolo Club

Star Rating: ★★★★☆
Opening Hours: Varies
Budget Range: €€€
Situated in the trendy Poble Sec district, Apolo Club (Sala Apolo) is by far one of the coolest nightclubs in Barcelona. It started off as an amusement park, before becoming a ballroom, a bingo (fun), a professional skating club and, finally, a nightclub.
Our favourite thing about Apolo is that it’s open most days except Tuesday. Mondays are “Honey Bunny” nights, featuring rock, pop, indie, garage, electro, and disco music. On Wednesdays they play pop, reggaeton, hip hop, electro, and trap while on Thursdays both rooms come alive with the “Milkshake” night, offering pop, dance, rock, reggaeton, hip hop, electro, and trap.
Fridays and Saturdays are the big ones, with Nitsa parties in both rooms offering a mix of techno, house, electro, urban, and disco music, while on Sunday the weekly calendar concludes with LGBTI “Churros con Chocolate” parties in Sala Apolo, featuring hits, pop, queer anthems, and a lively atmosphere.
Apolo boasts an impressive list of artists, including Coldplay, the Killers, Kings of Leon and techno legend Ellen Allien.
Jamboree
Address: Plaça Reial, 17 08002 Barcelona, Spain
Star Rating: ★★★★☆
Opening Hours: Varied
Budget Range: €€€
Jamboree is great fun for lovers of hip hop, afro-beats and live (and lively) jazz. It consists of two venues situated side by side: Jamboree and Jamboree Jazz Club. If jazz is your jam, Jamboree Jazz Club is the venue for you. The centrally situated venue welcomes local and international acts who have established themselves in the genre and know how to put on a show.
