Night Life Barcelona - Friday

Even though Friday might seem to be the beginning of the weekend in many places, it may seem to be right in the middle in Barcelona since the unofficial weekend start on Thursdays. Add the international crowd, hundreds of alternatives to choose and the night ending in the early morning, Barcelona may offer a very promising night for any taste, also on Fridays.

Salsa

Antilla
Antilla being the most prominent and oldest (open since 1993) salsa club (everyday salsa) of Barcelona, starts the night with simple workshops on the weekends including Friday. The night may warm up by 1am and see its peak by 3am.

The music is Cuban and the ambient may also look Cuban with photos, decorations etc. The upper floor may give a chance to relax, take a drink or two, smoke a cuban cigar and at the same time see all Antilla from up.

Hip Hop
Jamboree

Some very well known musicians play in Jamboree almost regularly. The hip hop night starts after 12 in everyday of the week. It is a real jam with good quality of music, many international people, good atmosphere. The night tends to end early in the morning. It is definitely worth going.

Such a place that one spreads the word and goes again and again for different occasions.

Jazz
La Belluna Jazz Club
If you have tried Jamboree and you are to try another Jazz Club in Barcelona, you may want to give it a go for La Belluna Jazz Club. The ambient is really nice with only one thing, a column in front of the stage. A changing group of musicians perform as in Jamboree.
