Macera Club is a renowned nightclub located in Madrid, Spain, known for its unique fusion of nightlife, music, and experimental spirits culture. Unlike traditional techno or dance clubs, Macera originated as a progressive bar distillery concept, opening its doors on Calle San Mateo in 2015. The founder, Narciso Bermejo, aimed to create a creative space that blends craft cocktails made from self-macerated spirits with a lively, eclectic nightlife scene.

Over time, Macera evolved into a dynamic venue that not only serves its exclusive infusions and cocktails but also regularly hosts DJs, live performances, and a variety of cultural events, contributing to Madrid’s vibrant nightlife landscape. The club quickly gained a reputation for its nonconformist atmosphere, drawing an artistically-minded crowd and positioning itself as a cultural hub in the Malasaña district. Macera’s cultural significance extends beyond Madrid, influencing similar venues in Barcelona and even inspiring an offshoot in London, though the original Madrid location remains the flagship.

While the space underwent modest renovations to expand its event capabilities, it has remained at its original address, preserving its industrial yet welcoming vibe. The club’s reputation is bolstered by its commitment to supporting local artistry, from wall murals to experimental music nights, and it is frequently cited in international travel guides as a must-visit for visitors eager to sample Madrid’s contemporary subcultures. Notable artists who have graced Macera Club include international DJs and performers such as John Talabot, Ben UFO, and Honey Dijon, alongside acclaimed local talents like Pional, Brigitte Laverne, and DJ Coco.

The venue is also known for spotlighting up-and-coming Spanish producers and collectives, including Mueveloreina, Cora Novoa, and Yung Beef, often curating special nights that blend visual art installations with live sets. Macera’s programming regularly features collaborations with both established and underground figures from Madrid’s creative scene, further cementing its status as a forward-thinking institution in Spain’s nightlife.
