As one of the best cosmopolitan cities, Barcelona offers visitors an endless array of nightlife options. There’s a night for everyone, and the variety of live music is definitely something the city can boast about…

Jazz lovers, look no further! We guarantee there’s a bar just for you. To help you out, we’ve listed some of our favorite jazz clubs in the city.

Harlem Jazz Club

We begin our list with perhaps the most legendary jazz venue in the city, the Harlem Jazz Club. Not only is it located in the heart of the stunning Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, but the club also has an impressive history, with over 1000 concerts in recent years!

Visitors can enjoy jazz, blues, funk, and reggae every night at this vintage venue, which has played an important role in the city’s musical history…

Harlem Jazz Club opens its doors from Tuesday to Saturday from 8:00 PM to 3:00 AM, and on Sundays from 7:00 PM to 2:00 AM.

JazzMan

JazzMan is located just seven minutes on foot from the Sagrada Familia and is well-known by the locals in the Eixample neighborhood. Visitors can enjoy both classic jazz veterans and young new jazz talents, all while savoring Jazzman’s impressive drink selection.

Why not combine your jazz evening with a nighttime visit to the Sagrada Familia? We believe that night is the best time to see Gaudí’s famous masterpiece, even if it’s just from the outside…

The club is open until late at night, opening at 9:00 PM and closing at 2:30 AM on weekdays and at 3:00 AM on weekends.

Big Bang Bar

A bar with a promising name, Big Bang Bar is located in the Raval neighborhood, which has long been a part of the city’s main scene. Although it’s not as old as the neighborhood itself, Big Bang Bar also has a long history. The club still has parts of its original walls from the days when Raval was just an area of small craft shops and orchards!

Big Bang Bar attracts visitors from all over the world, so much so that even the owners of the venue are surprised by how many people travel just to hear the live music at the bar!

Casa Figari

In the heart of the Gràcia neighborhood, Casa Figari was founded in 2019, a jazz bar created with the goal of bringing together alternative brands with authentic, honest products made by someone. Additionally, its aim is to make customers feel at home.

The venue features live music, jam sessions, vinyl records, and even has a space that, in some cases, functions as a club. You can enjoy all of this along with their signature cocktails, natural wines, and craft beers.

The bar is open from Tuesday to Thursday from 8:00 PM to 2:00 AM, and on Fridays and Saturdays from 8:00 PM to 2:30 AM.

From 9:00 PM onwards, the Café Vienés at the hotel transforms into an exclusive jazz club with an impressive lineup of past performers such as the Yoshida Brothers, Eddy Davis, Conal Fowkes, Doc Scalon Trio, and the New Orleans Rag Trio.
