El Piano de Sitges is outside the center of Sitges gayborhood and on a quiet side street. The bar…read morefront is really just a door with a poster. Walking through the second door reveals a small bar with 2 bartenders, and a little stage with el piano. What sets this gay bar apart from the others are the live singers and performers that grace the stage mostly in summer. West End & Broadway singers, cabaret singers, et al. A few were so good over the years that I bought their CD. Other evenings have pianists entertaining the crowd. In the summer one bartender does double duty as video DJ and keeps the music hopping with old campy music videos (think oldies like 70-80-90s Europop) plus same era divas like Madonna. I definitely used Shazam to ID a number of songs outside my repertoire such as: The Communards "Don't Leave Me This Way, with Sarah Jane Morris"?! We always manage to have a good time here. We especially look forward to Summer Showtune Sundays which becomes a fantastic singalong. The bartenders are super friendly. The crowd is drunk, fun and many times dancing and singing along. El Piano usually temporarily closes in the fall and returns as the Sitges season restarts. Check their Facebook page to be sure it's open. Also check out the Playbills above the urinals. So unique you keep your eyes looking up instead of down.

Of course Sitges has a gay piano bar. I didn't doubt it for a minute, but it's not on the Street of…read moreSin. It's a bit hidden away on another alley, and the elegant door made us think we were entering a private nightclub. Unfortunately Jamie W. and I came here when they weren't featuring live entertainment. That was a month away according to the friendly, trivia-saturated bartender. Instead he ran an endlessly enthralling video reel of classic and kitschy movie musical numbers on Showtune Sunday. Of course that meant watching Judy sing "The Trolley Song" in "Meet Me in St. Louis" followed by Liza performing "Money, Money" with Joel Grey in "Cabaret". They had a clip of Dame Judi Dench in a dirndl singing "16 (Going on 17)" from "The Sound of Music". Oh, and of course, they showed Barbra on the tugboat with her wilted yellow flowers belting "Don't Rain on My Parade" from "Funny Girl". Yes, I know the clip is 56 years old, but I can still stand, can't I? Meanwhile, the three gay couples in the bar were sitting quietly enraptured by the video and their Chardonnay. Meanwhile we had our predictable Gin & Tonic and Tequila Sunrise for 10€ (photo: https://yelp.to/sbWjnmscYD). DRINKS - 4 stars...lasted us for at least six numbers AMBIANCE - 5 stars...if the video reel is ambiance, sure SERVICE - 4 stars...friendly bartender who knows a lot about Patti Lupone TOTAL - 4 stars...if you need to chill away from the Street of Sin and want to listen to divas RELATED - Exploring Barcelona and Sitges?

Easily as worthy as its many heritage counterpart structures in this bountiful city of wondrous architecture, it still seems like a hidden gem that gets overlooked amidst multiple world heritage sites. It is not just a beautiful building, it is one of the most photo-worthy UNESCO sites in town. Gorgeously preserved seats, wood, sculptures, stained glass, historic cafe, and don't miss those yummy balcony columns outside! There is much to love here, but if you are short on time and can only snap photos and move along, you can see it all in 20 minutes. Squeeze it in. It's one of the most beautiful buildings you've never heard of.

This place is absolutely stunning -- the architecture, the colors, the detail... just wow…read more Definitely one of the most beautiful buildings I saw in Barcelona. I was a little disappointed that during the night performance, the patio area with the famous mosaic columns was completely closed off. It's one of the highlights of the building, and I was really hoping to see it lit up at night. Apparently, it's only open during day tours, which is kind of a bummer if you're only going for a show. Also, heads up -- the main photo you see everywhere is taken from the upstairs balcony seats, so if that's the view you want, book accordingly.

I found Palau Dalmases via EventBrite and make the reservation in advance to make sure I had a seat for my final night in Barcelona. Palau Dalmases is located near Museo Picasso which I had visited earlier that week so I felt very good being able to confidently navigate the crowded streets in search of my destination. When I stepped across the threshold I felt transported to a different time and place. The outer courtyard is charming and the staff was friendly and engaging. After taking little time to admire the architecture, I was shown quickly to my front row seat and provided with a complimentary drink which was a very nice touch. The lights dimmed and the show began with the musicians setting the atmosphere in the small and intimate space. The closest thing I can compare it to in my experience is an invocation of the spirit that one might experience in church. The cantaor (singer) and the tocaor (guitar player) drew me in from the start. By the time the Baile began I was lost in the experience. In this space their was a mixing and meeting of cultures that was so beautiful it reminded me that we humans are capable of coming together making something beautiful and meaningful when we set aside things that divide us. I can not compare this performance to other flamenco performances yet but I appreciate that this was my introduction. If you are looking for something that can be family friendly or if you are in it for a solo or couples experience I would recommend checking this out.

I am sure it gets quite fun as the evening progresses.
