An evening concert? Dining out? Dancing until the early hours? Having a drink with friends? Discovering an iconic landmark at night or enjoying Museum Night? Whatever your plan, you'll find it in Barcelona. In summer, there are even more options to enjoy, like Summer Nights or the activities held at city hotels. And all year round, cocktail bars, restaurants, clubs, live music venues and much more are waiting to help you conquer the night. The waterfront offers a chance to enjoy nightlife by the sea: a universe of bars, restaurants, clubs and even a casino in a truly Mediterranean atmosphere. Another way to explore Barcelona’s nightlife is neighborhood by neighborhood, each offering its own unique and distinctive vibe.
