Few European cities do nightlife quite like Barcelona.

The Catalan capital goes hard and heavy, with its locals living it up well into the early hours. And while it might not have the techno heaviness of Berlin or the versatility of London, Barcelona’s bars and club scene has something for everyone looking to dance the night away.

Hitting one of Barcelona’s nightclubs is a must, especially after taking a Tipsy Tour. So here’s our tried and trusted local guide of the best nightclubs in Barcelona.
