About this venue
Sala 2 Apolo is a compact concert hall within Barcelona’s well-known Apolo venue, designed for performances that benefit from a closer and more direct connection between artists and the audience. Its appeal is not only in the programme, but also in the format: the smaller setting creates a more intense experience for concerts, club nights and special music events.
Inside, the venue is built around clear sound, good stage visibility and a practical layout that makes movement easy before, during and after the event. Visitors value the energy of the room, the smooth shift between live concert and club atmosphere, and the proximity of the facilities needed for a comfortable night out.
The hall is located at Carrer Nou de la Rambla, 113, Barcelona, Spain. The entrance sits in an urban area close to Paral·lel station, making the final approach to the venue straightforward on foot after leaving the metro or nearby streets.

About the city: Barcelona
Barcelona, the Mediterranean capital of Catalonia, is not only a city of architecture and beaches, but also one of Europe’s most attractive destinations for top-tier events. The city thrives on dynamic energy, a diverse cultural scene, and a rich selection of sports and music experiences, making it a frequent choice for travelers who want to combine nightlife with an authentic city break. The atmosphere is lively, and its neighborhoods are full of places to meet up before and after events.
A major advantage for visitors is excellent transport connectivity to arenas and stadiums. The Metro de Barcelona (TMB) network and city buses, together with FGC, Rodalies de Catalunya, and the tram (Trambaix and Trambesòs), make it easy to move quickly across the city and transfer smoothly to most key locations. If you arrive by train, Barcelona Sants is the main rail hub with straightforward connections to urban lines, and if you fly in, Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport offers convenient links into the city and onward travel toward event areas.
Beyond the event itself, Barcelona is perfect for a quick exploration before or after a concert or match. Stroll along La Rambla, wander the narrow streets of Barri Gòtic, and feel the city’s pulse at Plaça de Catalunya; for a calmer walk, choose the waterfront around Port Vell or parks such as Parc de la Ciutadella. If you want panoramic views and a different vibe, Montjuïc offers lookouts and spaces that give the city a distinctive stage-like backdrop.
Add to that the food scene — from tapas bars to markets and modern bistros — plus a wide range of accommodation in areas like Eixample, Gràcia, or by the sea, and it becomes easy to tailor your stay to your budget and travel style. Visitors often appreciate the city’s good organization and the feeling that everything can be done on foot or by public transport, making planning simpler. Whether you come for sport or music, Barcelona delivers a complete experience that stays with you.
