In Bilbao there are not residents, there are txikiteros. Txikiteros are names given to those who drink txikitos, small glasses of wine served in the bars.

Madrid's party nights hide real gems for all tastes, you just need to know where to look and you'll find just what you're looking for.
The atmosphere is great, because you won't find the good vibes of Madrid so easily in any other city, and there's music all around, so there's nothing to stop you from having a great night out, whether it's Tuesday or Saturday.
We are going to take a walk through the best spots in the centre of Madrid, passing through university places, the gay scene, legendary nightclubs in Madrid's nights and clubs with light music that invite you to have a good chat.

Right in the centre of Madrid, we find one of the best clubs in the capital. And that's not easy to say, because there is a lot of good competition.
Its desire to party is undeniable, it is open every day, from 22:30 to 5:30. A perfect place to start your night, because they have a great variety of cocktails, you can't miss their mojitos and caipirinhas, among others.
With industrial design and mainly danceable music, you'll have a great night whatever time you spend, but a good time is guaranteed.

We continue with the party in another of Madrid's great clubs, which has managed to carve out a niche for itself after years of good work; Studio 54. With a nod to the legendary Manhattan venue, this gay nightclub is one of the best of your night.
There are many reasons for this, first and foremost the atmosphere. Although it is gay-friendly, everyone is welcome and that's what makes it such a nice place to be. Its music is very varied and of high quality and it also has live shows that will make your party even more entertaining.
Another point in its favour is its location, as well as its decoration and use of technology and lighting, between the Chueca neighbourhood and Gran Via, are you really going to miss it?

When we talk about Madrid and the nightlife, it is inevitable to talk about Teatro Kapital. There is only one word to define this nightclub: emblematic. It is well known in Madrid's nightlife, and enjoys great popularity in the rest of Europe.
The reason, among others, is the great agglomeration of musical styles and different atmospheres thanks to the seven floors of its building in none other than Calle Atocha.
The icing on the cake is a decoration done with great care and a lot of quality music of different genres. A must.
Calle Barceló, 11

We make a new cultural stop, another mythical theatre of the capital; Teatro Barceló, from emblematic to almost legendary. With the permission of Kapital, Teatro Barceló is one of the biggest clubs in Madrid with three floors full of music and parties.
It has numerous sessions of the best DJs and theme parties that are a spectacle. Don't lose track of them and keep an eye on their networks to keep up to date with what's going on in their rooms and booths.

Bisou Madrid Club has put as much effort into its design as into the music that plays every night. Its concept is minimalist, with artistic touches in every corner. 350 lucky ones can enjoy its great atmosphere on weekends, with top DJs and a changing style of music, ranging from house to reggaeton, although it is the latter, with a great selection of Latin music, that is everyone's favourite.
Calle del Dr Cortezo, 1
Let's move to a more university environment, where the party never seems to end and students are looking for an escape from so many mid-term exams.
From the first step you take you notice the positive vibes and the desire to have a good time. They play fun, danceable music, and their theme parties and special sessions are worth a visit for a unique night out.

If we're talking about fun, let's go to El Son, where Latin music, with the best of bachata and salsa, never stops playing on a dance floor that is always full of people wanting to have a good time and with lots of rhythm. Hurry up because the place is not too big, and it fills up quickly, something you'll understand as soon as you've been here for a few minutes.
Here we bring you other venues for those who are looking for other rhythms in Madrid's nightlife, who prefer something quieter, or perhaps some light music because they prioritise having a cocktail while chatting with friends or want to see some quality live music.

All the spirit of the deepest and most musical New Orleans is just a stone's throw from the centre. Immerse yourself in traditional jazz with more soul and quality in Madrid at the Gumbo Jam, which has been one of the best surprises of Madrid's nightlife.
The concerts start at 22:00, so don't oversleep and hurry up because it's the talk of the town and capacity fills up very quickly. Come along for a good time full of good vibes.

The marketing department was right to name this place. It's what you read, what you imagine. You can almost see yourself there, can't you? Light music in the background while you browse up and down a menu that offers a wide range of high quality cocktails and drinks.
If the weather is good, which it certainly is, try your best to sit on the terrace to enjoy the full experience.

We've changed the subject, and now things are getting serious. This is a warning to all those rock fans out there, this is your destination. They take rock very seriously, they are true lovers of the genre, and it is to be appreciated.
Second warning, though, keep an eye on their networks, because there are nights of DJ sessions, and other nights they bring the best soul live. Fun house is a mecca for lovers of quality music.
