The return of a legend
Barcelona is about to experience a new chapter in its nightlife history. KU, the club that defined Ibiza in the 80s, comes back to life thanks to Costa Este, the leading hospitality and nightlife group that has decided to bring back the magic of one of the most legendary venues in the world.
From Ibiza to the world: the myth of KU
For those who lived Ibiza’s golden age, KU was far more than a nightclub. Its nights were cultural experiences where music blended with art, freedom, and hedonism. Unique performances, extravagant productions, and an unforgettable energy turned KU into an eternal icon of international clubbing.
One of its most legendary moments remains the historic performance of Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballé, who debuted Barcelona on KU’s stage, forever linking the spirit of the club with the city itself.
From Pacha to KU: a new era begins
The iconic venue that once hosted Pacha Barcelona is now transformed to welcome the rebirth of KU. This shift is no coincidence: since its sale in 2017, the Pacha brand lost part of its original identity, opening the door to a new future in the city.
Costa Este saw the opportunity to go one step further and revive an icon with its own personality. KU Barcelona will be a contemporary reinterpretation of the myth, a club that keeps its original essence but evolves into a new generation space offering immersive, global, and sophisticated experiences.
Costa Este’s vision
This revival is part of Costa Este’s renewal strategy led by its new generation, with the goal of keeping Barcelona at the forefront of international culture and nightlife.
The return of KU is not only a tribute to the past, but also a bold commitment to the future of nightlife. It will be a space where the heritage of Ibiza’s freest spirit meets today’s innovation and global trends.
KU Barcelona: the new nightlife destination
The legend is back—exactly where it was always meant to be: in the heart of Barcelona.
