Historic concert hall in a 1940s theatre; as a club it's home to Churros con Chocolate (Sundays) and Somoslas. Nitsa is the in-house electronic club, running since 1994 and among DJ Mag's Top 100 Clubs: not a purely queer club, but with queer nights like Herrensauna or MARICAS birthdays.
Assessment: Queer Atlas describes Nitsa as 'mixed alternative crowd, strong queer following on select nights' with zero tolerance for homophobia. The comfort rating applies mainly to the queer series; regular Nitsa nights are more mixed.
