A 1943 dance hall on the Paral·lel

Apolo's building at Nou de la Rambla 113 started in 1935 as Autopark, an indoor amusement park with bumper cars and a ghost train, reopened in 1940 as Atracciones Apolo and became a dance hall in 1943. After the rides went in the late 1980s it reopened in 1991 as a concert hall and nightclub, as The New Barcelona Post told in July 2026. Today it has the main Sala Apolo, La (2), opened in 2006 and refurbished in 2017, the small La Cinc for around 100 people and an outdoor space, 3LOGY. Its website calls it the oldest dance club in Spain and says it is the first concert hall on the peninsula with immersive sound, with a Soundscape system arriving in November 2026. Time Out lists it among the city's essential venues.

Club nights through the week

Apolo runs a different party most nights, and the line-up rotates by month.
