Sidecar Club in Barcelona: The Music, The Crowd, The Location, The Times and the Vibe
Page Content
What?
Sidecar Club is a small, dark and intimate club just off the Ramblas, in the heart of Barcelona. It opens every night of the week to bring an eclectic music selection to a young mix of tourists and locals.
Sidecar has a capacity of about 300 people. There is just one room where you will find the dance floor, a long bar and a small stage area. The music policy varies greatly depending on what night of the week you are there. Some nights of the week you will find bands playing there in the early evening. After midnight the DJs take over, playing anything from the new craze in modern dance music to good old fashioned rock and roll.
Who?
Sidecar's sweaty basement club attracts a younger crowd in search of a raucous night out. You will find a generous helping of travellers who come from the numerous youth hostels dotted around Plaza Reial. However it is also popular amongst local music fans supporting the Barcelona scene and dressed down for the occasion.
