For Thursday, September 24 through Sunday, September 27, the most concentrated jazz proposition sits in El Raval, where 23 Robadors presents two consecutive late sets under the Coltrane banner. The useful detail is the changing personnel: Thursday’s «COLTRANE 100» gathers a large lineup around Lluc Casares and Santi de la Rubia, while Friday’s COLTRANE «MODE» introduces a different group led by Ana Ayala, Nico Andino, Vicente López, Guillaume Coulbois, Ot Granado and Estefi Chamorro. It is a compact way to hear two approaches to the same deep repertoire across one weekend opening, with the venue placing both shows in its ongoing jazz-and-flamenco programme. The result is a focused local route for listeners who value musicianship, ensemble makeup and the chance to compare bands across consecutive evenings.[1][2][3]

23 Robadors is at C/ d’en Robador, 23, and its September agenda gives the room a deliberately alternating rhythm: flamenco at the earlier hour, jazz later in the evening. That structure matters on Thursday. Irene Ribas appears at 20:00 with Eli Ayala, Costi El Chato and Ferran Fita, then «COLTRANE 100» follows at 22:00. A single address therefore holds two distinct Barcelona traditions in sequence: the close interaction of a flamenco quartet first, followed by a seven-player jazz tribute. Readers making an evening of it can treat the handover as part of the programme’s appeal, while choosing either set still makes practical sense on its own.[1][2]

The Thursday late show is the broadest of the two Coltrane bills. Alongside Casares and de la Rubia, «COLTRANE 100» lists Gabriel Amargant, Hector Floría, Guillaume Coulbois, Giuseppe Campisi and Joan Casares. The calendar labels it a jazz Coltrane tribute and sets admission at €10, giving the bill the shape of a full ensemble encounter inside a venue whose listings routinely make personnel central to the presentation. Casares brings an especially useful connection to contemporary Barcelona jazz: ESMUC identifies him as a saxophonist and clarinetist who also composes and arranges for varied instrumental formats, while his own site describes his work leading The Changes and co-leading the Barcelona Art Orchestra. Those credentials make the scale of Thursday’s lineup worth watching closely.[1][2][4][5]

Thursday’s early flamenco set sets the room’s pace

Irene Ribas’s 20:00 appearance provides the earlier doorway into 23 Robadors on September 24. The official agenda bills Ribas with Ayala, Costi El Chato and Fita, and categorises the set as flamenco. The concise listing leaves room for the live exchange to be the point: four named players in the venue’s early slot, before the later jazz bill changes the room’s emphasis. For listeners who want an evening shaped by the venue’s own programming language, this is the strong pairing—arrive for the flamenco quartet, stay for the Coltrane ensemble, and let the shift in instrumentation and format do the work.[1]

That sequence also explains why 23 Robadors is the right subject for this week. Its late-September schedule makes visible a working-room ecology in which flamenco and jazz share a regular timetable, with individual musicians and collaborators printed prominently. Thursday’s two sets are separated by two hours, offering a clean decision for early and late plans while keeping both within walking-distance continuity. The address in the Raval makes the programme especially practical for a weekday night that needs a clear destination.[1][2]

Friday redraws the Coltrane lineup

Return on Friday, September 25 at 22:00 for COLTRANE «MODE», also listed at €10. Its personnel shifts fully around Coulbois, the sole name shared with Thursday’s late group. Ana Ayala, Nico Andino, Vicente López, Ot Granado and Estefi Chamorro form the rest of the announced lineup, so Friday offers a fresh ensemble configuration instead of a repeat bill. De la Rubia’s presence on Thursday adds further weight to the two-night comparison: his biography traces his jazz studies in Barcelona and later work with an extensive list of performers, alongside releases as a leader including Broken Line and Changes. Across the pair, the calendar’s key idea is simple: one source repertory, two local bands, and two separate late-night rooms to hear them in.[1][3][5]

Plan around the official local times: Irene Ribas starts Thursday at 20:00; «COLTRANE 100» begins Thursday at 22:00; and COLTRANE «MODE» begins Friday at 22:00. All three are at 23 Robadors, C/ d’en Robador, 23, Barcelona. The venue currently lists each Coltrane event at €10. Recheck 23 Robadors’ official agenda and event pages before leaving, since start times, prices, access and lineups can change.[1][2][3]
