02/05/12 - Razzmatazz Barcelona, Spain

If i can get time off work, i might try to go to this one. Just checked flights and they are really good, £113 return from Bristol. Could anyone recommend hotels near the venue. Thankyou.

Have a look on Booking.com, logistically, this is pretty hard if you are on a budget, about 50 mins from airport with 2 changes, i might go out though to do a cigarette run at the same time.

I've just emailed a friend that lives there but i'll probably get the same response i would give if someone asked me to recommend a london one. Err dunno..never stayed in one Still ..she might have some tips about the area it's in if you've never been.

Have tickets gone on sale for this yet? I could possibly go if the Fates are very kind to me

Some hotels/hostels are close to venue, or jump on the trams - starting at £10!

If you register at ServiCaixa you can access the pre-sale now. I bought a couple of tix this morning. I've used ServiCaixa for other things in Spain and you can pick up your tickets from ServiCaixa cash points when you're there.

Razzmatazz, haha!

Went here about three years ago. It's very strange, like a giant warehouse with various rooms on about three levels in the middle of nowhere. Not sure how a gig would work here.

Louise, if you're staying in town centre then Razzmatazz is a taxi ride; not too far or expensive but it's not walkable from the town centre.

Enjoy.

I'm hoping to stay in a hotel near the venue but unsure of the area it's in. I've only been to Barcelona once and that was twenty six years ago for my honeymoon!!!! I might just chance it and get a hotel when i get to the city.
