Sala Paral·lel 62

4.5 (1,871)$$ · Mid-range

Sala Paral·lel 62 is a live music venue built across several levels, giving it flexibility for everything from club nights to festival satellite shows, including use during Primavera Sound. Reviewers highlight the comfortable room temperature and easy entry logistics, though one review notes the sound system underperformed on a particular night, suggesting quality can vary by event and setup. With a notably high trendy score relative to its culture score, it functions more as a contemporary music venue than a heritage cultural institution. It suits travelers chasing a specific gig or festival event more than a general night out.

What people say

"Beautiful space and comfortable room temperature during the summer, but I was told before that the soundsystem was not great and I could experience that last night at Mari Froes concert. My honest recommendation is that the space invests in better sound equipament or improving the acoustic of the place, especially since it is a concert hall. The sound was not very clean and I could only hear the music through the speaker on the right (didn’t feel any surround effect). I would be happy to go back if they improved this. Besides that all perfect! (Side note: also during this concert especifically, the staff at the bar was making too much noise with bottles and trash while the singer was performing)"
