The Basement

The club

The Basement goes by The Bassement Club, with a double s, on its website and social media. It is a techno and house club in an industrial-style basement on Calle Galileo, 26, in Chamberí, with high-fidelity sound and international DJs on the line-up. Carl Cox, Charlotte de Witte, Dixon, Joseph Capriati, Laurent Garnier, Richie Hawtin and Sven Väth have all played here.

Much of the programme comes from local collectives who run their own nights here: Laster Club, Keller Hard Club, Nitro, Ongoing and Jazzy, hosted by Roots. Smoking is not allowed inside, there is a cloakroom and lockers you can book as soon as each date goes on sale, and the bar takes cards and cash. From 02:30 you can leave and come back in with the entry stamp on your hand. Daytime sessions are rare, although some Saturdays have an afternoon party from 17:00 to 23:00.

Which night to go

Open Thursday to Sunday. Thursday and Sunday, 23:59 to 05:30; Friday and Saturday, 23:59 to 06:00, although each date can have its own hours. Laster Club is the name that comes up most often on the calendar, on Saturdays, Fridays and on Sundays with Kantina, a long session that can run until 08:00. On 7 November 2026 it celebrates its fifth anniversary with twelve hours straight, from 18:00 to 06:00.

The music

Techno and house, with guest artists and each collective's residents. Keller Hard Club, Nitro and Cacao each have their own night, and Laster Club, which has its own label, Laster Records, books line-ups such as the one on 28 November 2026: Dasha Rush, Phara and Laia b2b Liszt.

Dress code and door

Casual. At Laster nights you wear whatever you feel comfortable in, and there is a cloakroom to change inside. Minimum age is 18, and the door asks for a physical ID card, NIE or passport: photos and copies on your phone are not accepted. Glass bottles, professional cameras and sharp objects are not allowed, and security may search you.
