5 SELECTIONS FOR THE HIGHEST
Recoletos Jazz
Seb's Club
Calle de Recoletos, 18

Have you seen the film La La Land? If you have, you will almost certainly remember Seb's Club and likely find yourself wishing you could visit. The brilliant news is that Madrid offers a near-identical experience at the Recoletos Jazz Club.
This venue is everything a jazz club aspires to be. It is intimate and soulful with truly excellent music. We highly recommend the low tables close to the stage for the best atmosphere. Live jazz Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.

La Cucaracha

Toni 2
The World’s Most Iconic Piano Bar
Calle del Almirante, 9

Toni 2 is arguably the world’s most iconic piano bar and little has changed since 1979. A grand piano, one pianist and a single microphone passed around the room to anyone brave enough to enchant the crowd or perhaps just those who have enjoyed a few too many drinks.
You will certainly recognise the music, which features Frank Sinatra, Luis Miguel, 80s pop and much more. A night here is a truly wholesome experience that will leave you feeling a renewed love for humanity.
SUNDAY TO THURSDAY, FROM 11:30 PM TO 5:30 AM
FRIDAY & SATURDAY, FROM 10 PM TO 6 AM

Essential Flamenco
The Tablao
Calle de la Cruz, 26

Flamenco is an art form that connects you directly to raw emotions like joy, fury, pride and sorrow. In this 180-year-old underground brick vault, you will feel that energy even more intensely. With only three rows of chairs, you sit close enough to hear every note, see every facial expression and feel every step.
The artistic director of this venue is Juan "El Mistela", a National Flamenco Critics Award winner.

New Orleans Jazz by 55b
El Internacional
Calle de Cedaceros, 11

While Wednesdays are dedicated to salsa, Thursdays at El Internacional belong to lively and soulful New Orleans Jazz. Forget the idea of sitting back with a whisky on the rocks and trying to look cool while the band plays. Here you dance all night, as if Mardi Gras had come to Madrid.
THURSDAY, FROM 10 PM TO 5 AM (LIVE JAZZ FROM 12:30 AM TO 2:30 AM)
