Barcelona's English comedy scene is real, and small
English comedy in Barcelona exists because of the city's huge international population, so the rooms are small, the line-ups mix touring acts with local expats, and the jokes are often about living here. Shows are commonly in bars, with a modest entry price or a drink minimum, and open-mic nights are free or near it. Programs change weekly, so the listing that matters is this week's; Spanish and Catalan nights outnumber English ones, and the language is usually stated on the poster.
