Located at Avda. Reina Maria Cristina s/n, 08004 Barcelona, Fira Barcelona in Montjuïc is not a traditional nightclub but rather an iconic events venue within one of Barcelona’s most important exhibition and conference complexes. Established in the late 1920s for the International Exhibition, the Montjuïc site is a cornerstone of Barcelona’s cultural and economic landscape.

Over the decades, its grand halls and imposing architecture have hosted everything from trade fairs to large-scale concerts, evolving with the city’s vibrant social scene. Fira Barcelona, particularly its Montjuïc location, gained significant cultural relevance as it became a central part of numerous music festivals, clubbing series, and nightlife events. The sprawling venue’s adaptability has allowed it to transform from a convention space to an after-hours dance floor, famously serving as the home for the revered Sónar by Night events, among others.

Its reputation is marked by its fusion of historical grandeur with cutting-edge audiovisual production, helping Barcelona earn recognition as a global nightlife and music capital. Over time, while the primary function of the Montjuïc site remained as an exhibition hall, certain sections have been updated to accommodate world-class light and sound systems, facilitating electrifying nightlife experiences. The structure itself, a blend of classical exposition halls and modern adaptations, serves both daytime professional crowds and nocturnal revelers.

Fira Barcelona’s Montjuïc venue thus stands out as a bridge between commerce, culture, and the city’s ever-evolving party spirit, attracting a cosmopolitan audience and some of the music industry’s biggest names. Notable artists who have performed at Fira Barcelona Montjuïc include international icons like The Chemical Brothers, Björk, Aphex Twin, Kraftwerk, Underworld, Richie Hawtin, Laurent Garnier, and Fatboy Slim as well as celebrated local acts such as John Talabot, Alizzz, and Cora Novoa.
