About Sala Sidecar

Located in the heart of Barcelona at Plaça Reial 7, Sala Sidecar was a cornerstone of the city’s indie and rock scene since 1982. After closing in January 2024, ownership was transferred to Club Sauvage and the space continues to host vibrant live music under a refreshed brand. The venue comprises multiple spaces including a club area, bar, terrace, and backstage access, offering an intimate setting for performances with a capacity of roughly 200–300 guests. While public seating charts aren’t widely published, the venue has traditionally functioned as a flexible standing room club with varied layouts across its spaces.

Whether you’re seeking a buzzy night at the club or a more relaxed bar vibe, this site preserves the spirit of live music that has welcomed acts like Sidonie, Azucarillo Kings, Ladilla Rusa, Josele Santiago, and Los Rebeldes over decades. If you’re planning a trip to Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, this venue is a must-visit stop on the city’s music map.

Plan ahead for a smooth night: prepare for limited parking in the area and rely on Barcelona’s efficient public transit. Nearest Metro stations are Liceu (L3) and Jaume I (L4). For a convenient stay nearby, consider hotels such as Sonder DO Plaça Reial, Hotel Neri, and TOC Ramblas, all within walking distance or a short ride from Plaça Reial. We’ve got trusted partner recommendations to help you secure your hotel and dining plans, ensuring you’re ready for a great night of live music.
