Checked Research-led
In this guide · 10 sections
The short version
- Four kinds of night: Razzmatazz in Poblenou for five rooms on one ticket; the seafront clubs beside Port Olímpic (CDLC, Opium, Shoko, KU); Moog in El Raval, open every night of the year; and the rooftops (NOXE at the W, Martinez on Montjuïc) to start the night.
- Clubs open late. Razzmatazz's doors open at 1 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, Moog's at midnight.
- Prices, from the venues: Razzmatazz's first-release tickets are €18 for Fridays and Saturdays; Moog is €11–15 depending on the day; Opium on a Saturday is €20 with a drink, or €15 on its own guest list until 1.30 AM.
- Buy on the venues' own sites, and check a flyer's offer against them before you pay.
Barcelona's clubs keep late hours, and the same room can be a different night depending on the day of the week. This guide sorts them by the kind of night you want, with door times, prices and dress rules from the venues' own pages.
The four kinds of night
| Kind | What it's for | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Big multi-room club | Five rooms on one ticket | Razzmatazz |
| Seafront | A restaurant or terrace first, a club later | CDLC, Opium, Shoko, KU |
| Smaller rooms | Late nights and international DJs | Moog; Input at Poble Espanyol |
| Rooftops | Drinks before a club | NOXE (W Hotel), Martinez, La Galana (Vincci Gala) |
Pick one kind for the night and stay with it. Crossing the city from a rooftop to the seafront to Poblenou in one night means a lot of time in taxis and queues.
Razzmatazz: five rooms, one ticket
Razzmatazz is in Poblenou: five rooms in two former factories, all on one ticket. The rooms are numbered 1 to 5, and the night changes with the day of the week:
- Wednesday: El Dirty, a hits night.
- Thursday: Mandanga, with hits, pop and karaoke. Doors at 12.30 AM; first-release tickets €13.
- Friday: RazzClub with Fuego. Saturday: RazzClub with Human, its techno night, in rooms 2 and 3. Weekend nights are electronic, rap and club music across all five rooms. Doors at 1 AM; first-release tickets €18 including fees.
- Sunday: Torax, for techno and house, from 5 PM; and Common People, for pop, indie, Britpop and rock.
Getting in
Buy online. Razzmatazz doesn't publish a door price and doesn't run a guest list. There's no strict dress code, but it asks you to avoid sports team shirts, clothes with political slogans and flip-flops. There's no cloakroom: lockers are €6.50 a night.
The seafront: KU, Opium, Shoko and CDLC
The four seafront clubs sit side by side on Passeig Marítim, beside Port Olímpic: CDLC at No. 32, Opium at 34, Shoko at 36 and KU at 38. Port Olímpic's own site says the marina's old nightspot terraces were cleared, so the clubs are on the beachfront, not in the marina.
Opium is a beachfront terrace restaurant by day and a club by night, and books bigger EDM names. On a Saturday its doors are open from 11.30 PM to 6 AM, it's 18 and over, and general admission is €20 with a drink, or €15 with a drink on its own guest list until 1.30 AM. Tables run from €200 to €1,500. The dress code is "elegant chic", with no sportswear. It has a cloakroom, but publishes no price.
Shoko's nights are hip hop, R&B, reggaeton, afrobeats and drill: Demon Time on Fridays and Pure Shoko on Saturdays.
KU Barcelona, at No. 38, is the club that was Pacha Barcelona: the old Pacha website now carries KU's name. It's a club and restaurant, open every day; its Monday night, Vibra, is reggaeton, afrobeat, hip-hop and R&B.
CDLC (Carpe Diem Lounge Club) is a restaurant-club, more restaurant with a DJ than a full club.
Flyers and guest lists
If someone on the street offers you guest-list entry to a seafront club, check the club's own price first. Opium's own guest list is €15 with a drink until 1.30 AM on a Saturday, so you'll know what the offer is really worth.
By day the seafront is a different scene: the beach clubs guide covers the beach bars, the sunbeds you can book and the seafront lunches.
Moog and the late rooms
Moog opens every night of the year, from midnight until 5 AM, or 6 AM on Fridays and Saturdays. It's on Carrer Arc del Teatre in El Raval, near Drassanes metro, and it opened in 1996.
- Entry: €11 in advance or €12 at the door Monday to Wednesday, and €14 or €15 Thursday to Sunday. No drink is included.
- Music: international DJs through the week (Derrick May on Friday 9 October 2026). Upstairs, VillaRosa plays pop, electropop and 70s to 90s rock.
- Rules: 18 and over. No strict dress code, but no sports shirts. The cloakroom is €2 an item. There's no VIP area or bottle service.
Two more:
- Input, inside Poble Espanyol on Montjuïc, calls itself a high-fidelity dance club for techno, and opens at weekends.
- Nitsa, at Sala Apolo in Poble-sec, has run since 1993, on Fridays and Saturdays.
In summer, La Terrrazza is an open-air club inside Poble Espanyol, at weekends. Its 2026 season ends with closing parties on 9 to 11 October.
Rooftops: where the night starts
Most rooftops close by 1 AM, so treat them as the start of the night.
- NOXE, at the W Hotel (Barceloneta): a Japanese fine-dining restaurant with a cocktail bar and club on the 26th floor. The bar is open from 7 PM to 2 AM Sunday to Thursday and to 3 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, so it's the exception to the 1 AM rule. Walk-ins only, 21 and over, and an "elegant and chic" dress code. The W is renovating its lower floors from 26 October 2026 to late spring 2027, and says NOXE stays open.
- Martinez (Montjuïc): a restaurant on the slope of Montjuïc, near the cable car's Miramar station. Open until 12.30 AM Sunday to Thursday and 1 AM on Fridays and Saturdays. Book online.
- La Galana, at the Vincci Gala (Ronda de Sant Pere, near Plaça de Catalunya): a rooftop terrace over the city centre, for cocktails and food.
- The Majestic Hotel's rooftop on Passeig de Gràcia: in summer, its Sunset Sessions have a resident DJ and guest DJs.

Corrections
- : Re-checked against the clubs’ own sites and rewritten. Razzmatazz’s rooms don’t each run one genre: its Friday and Saturday nights are electronic, rap and club music across all five rooms, and pop and indie are on Sundays at Common People. The rooms are numbered 1 to 5 (there’s no Loft, Pop 2 or Lolita), doors open at 1 AM, so there’s no empty room at 11 PM, and first-release tickets are €18, not €20–25 on the door. Shoko’s nights are hip hop, R&B, reggaeton, afrobeats and drill, not house. Entry isn’t free before midnight: Opium on a Saturday is €20 with a drink. Moog is €11–15, not €12, and opens every night, so Monday isn’t dead. Nitsa is on Fridays and Saturdays, not Sundays. Razzmatazz has €6.50 lockers rather than a cloakroom, and Moog’s cloakroom is €2. Moog bans sports shirts. Hipnotik is a hip-hop festival, not a techno account. Removed Macarena, whose hours, capacity, door and DJs we couldn’t confirm, and Sutton, whose door policy we couldn’t confirm. La Terrrazza is no longer a skip: we couldn’t stand behind the reason we gave. Removed the summer 2026 warehouse nights, and the crowd ages, drink prices and flyer mark-ups, which no source states.
- : NOXE’s cocktail bar at the W is walk-in only and for over-21s; the guide said to book it through the W. Martinez takes bookings online; the guide said it was walk-in. Most rooftops close by 1 AM, not 1–2 AM.
- : Removed Hotel Brummell's rooftop: its terrace and pool appear to be for guests, and we couldn't confirm a public bar. Terraza Vincci Gala is on Ronda de Sant Pere, not Passeig de Gràcia. NOXE, which replaced Eclipse on the W's 26th floor, is now described from the W's own listing.
- : Pacha Barcelona became KU Barcelona in September 2025; the guide no longer describes the pool, daybeds and residencies, which we couldn't confirm. Opium has no pool. Sutton opened in 2001 and isn't Barcelona's oldest club. Removed Santa Mónica from the seafront list. [Sutton's own site now says it has 30 years of nightlife behind it, so 2001 may be wrong. Sutton is no longer in the guide; see 8 October.]
- : Eclipse, the W's rooftop, closed in 2023 and is now NOXE. The guide no longer describes Eclipse's DJ sets and door. [We couldn't confirm the year Eclipse closed: no primary source gives it, and other sources say 2022. See 8 October.]
- : Removed a first-person account of nights out in Barcelona: the guide is research-led. Removed a quote credited to “a local music PR”, an unnamed source that couldn’t be checked, and a closing line saying the listings came live from the venues’ own ticketing, which Citorah doesn’t have.
