Sala New Fizz

Sala New Fizz is a compact live-music bar in Barcelona, listed at roughly 50–150 capacity. Its defining feature is a songwriter-scale room that pairs scheduled concerts with a Monday open jam and a Wednesday open mic, creating a regular route onto the same stage for artists and audience members. The venue’s own description centers acoustic concerts in an intimate format, while its calendar stretches across pop, rock, folk, Latin music and R&B-adjacent bills.

A Small Stage With an Open Door

Public listings place New Fizz in Barcelona’s live circuit by April 2019, when local coverage highlighted its jam sessions and comedy programming. That September, Barcelona Cultura documented two solo shows by Ferran Exceso, the Exceso vocalist, on September 19 and 20; his guitar-and-voice format fits the close-range presentation the room continues to advertise.

The venue has also hosted music designed around access. In May 2022, Aiala & Eltornado brought their EnCantados date to New Fizz with simultaneous Catalan sign-language interpretation, according to MondoSonoro. Time Out Barcelona’s reporting on the EnCantados project described its approach as concerts and interviews shared by Deaf and hearing audiences. These documented nights give New Fizz a clear identity: a small Barcelona stage where authorship, conversation and participation have room to lead the evening.

The Shape of a Night Here

Expect a close, small-format setup suited to acoustic material and direct performer-audience exchange; capacity estimates place the room between 50 and 150 people. Faro Music’s current programming page runs live music from Monday through Saturday, with concerts beginning at 20:30 on Thursday through Saturday, plus the Monday open jam and Wednesday Rodautors open mic. Artists can submit proposals directly to the venue’s programming contact, making the room an active entry point for emerging songwriter, folk, pop, rock and Latin-leaning acts.
