Twenty-four Hour Party People
The night holds limitless possibilities in Barcelona. Start with sunset drinks from a panor-
amic terrace or dig your heels in the sand at a rustic beachside
chiringuito
. As darkness
falls, live music transforms the city: the rapid-fire rhythms of flamenco, brassy jazz spilling
out of basements, and hands-in-the-air indie-rock at vintage concert halls. Towards midnight
the bars fill. Take your pick from old-school taverns adorned with 19th-century murals,
plush lounges in lamp-lit medieval chambers or boisterous cava bars. If you're still standing
at 3am, hit the clubs and explore Barcelona's unabashed wild side.
