Parc del Fòrum is a renowned multi-purpose public space and event venue located in Barcelona, Spain. Originally developed for the Universal Forum of Cultures in 2004, the site was designed by the Swiss architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron and quickly became a prominent landmark along Barcelona’s coastline in the Diagonal Mar district. While not a traditional nightclub in the sense of a permanently enclosed entertainment venue, Parc del Fòrum is celebrated for its adaptability as a site that hosts large-scale concerts, festivals, and nightlife events, often transforming into an open-air nightclub atmosphere under the stars.

Its vast esplanade and striking geometric architecture have made it synonymous with contemporary culture and nighttime revelry on an impressive scale, contributing to Barcelona's reputation as a vibrant, cosmopolitan city. The unique location near the Mediterranean Sea offers not only breathtaking views but also state-of-the-art facilities capable of accommodating tens of thousands of music lovers during major events. Over the years, Parc del Fòrum has undergone occasional structural upgrades and urban developments to better serve the needs of massive crowds and diverse programming, but its core identity as an expansive cultural hub has remained consistent.

It is particularly famous as the principal venue for some of Europe’s most acclaimed music festivals—including Primavera Sound, Cruïlla, and DGTL Barcelona—establishing itself as a magnet for both international superstars and rising local talent across an array of genres, from electronic and pop to rock and hip hop. Notable artists who have performed at Parc del Fòrum include international acts such as Radiohead, Kendrick Lamar, Björk, Arcade Fire, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, The National, The Strokes, Tame Impala, Janelle Monáe, LCD Soundsystem, Arctic Monkeys, Rosalía, Tyler, The Creator, and Lorde. Prominent local and Spanish artists, including Love of Lesbian, Vetusta Morla, SónarBarcelona DJs, Mala Rodríguez, and Los Planetas, have also graced its stages, further cementing the venue’s reputation as a dynamic epicenter for global and local musical artistry.
