Located at Carrer de Vila i Vilà, 63 in the heart of
Barcelona’s Poble-sec district, LAUT is a celebrated nightclub known for its devotion to electronic music and underground culture. Opening its doors in 2018, the venue quickly established itself as a focal point for cutting-edge sounds, immersive nightlife experiences, and a community-centric ethos. The club was conceived as a project dedicated to high-fidelity
audio and a creative, intimate atmosphere, distinguishing itself from the city’s larger, more commercial dance floors.
LAUT’s minimalist, industrial space—formerly home to an art gallery and before that, a printing press—reflects its commitment to stripped-down aesthetics, letting music take center stage. The sound system is widely praised for its precision, fostering deep connections between performers and the crowd. The club is connected conceptually and physically to the historic venue Sala Apolo, although it operates with a distinct and independent programming focus, consistently spotlighting both experimental and dance-oriented genres.
Over the years, LAUT has built a loyal following among
Barcelona’s enthusiasts and is highly regarded for its role in supporting local talent while also attracting adventurous international acts. It has also become an influential hub during
Barcelona’s festivals, after-parties, and special electronic music events. Since its opening, LAUT has remained at the same location without notable changes in structure, instead opting to refine its internal space, acoustic treatment, and dynamic lighting to create an immersive clubbing environment.
Notable artists who have performed at LAUT include international names such as
Surgeon,
Veronica Vasicka,
Lena Willikens,
Paula Temple, and
Skee Mask, alongside prominent local acts like
Phran, BLD,
Ylia, Omega III, and Lucient, highlighting its diverse and adventurous programming.
