Popular spots in Barcelona

When it comes to entertainment and nightlife, Gràcia district is a perfect choice. The quarter is full of small bars with a good mood, so you will certainly not be disappointed.

Gràcia Latina is a small but cosier Latin bar with live music, a dance floor and a fabulous Caribbean atmosphere. Two other nice bars are Sutton and Bling-Bling. There, you will find mostly friendly locals.

The exact opposite of the Gràcia Quarter is the Olympic Village where it is all about outdoors and self-adventure. Get up to clubs, huge crowds, tourists, overpriced drinks, impersonality, superficiality, etc. Other similar spots include Opium, Pacha and Eclipse.
