The biggest shoebox in Catalonia will get even bigger. Barcelona City Council will build a new Sant Jordi Club on the same plot it currently occupies, expanding its capacity from 4,000 to 9,000. This responds to a long-standing request from the live music industry for a venue with a capacity of more than 4,000. For now, Barcelona can host indoor concerts for all capacities up to 2,000 people (3,000 at the Auditori del Fòrum and 4,000 at the current Sant Jordi Club), and for the Palau Sant Jordi to be a joy, it must attract between 12,000 and 17,000. What's missing is a venue that can meet the demand for concerts that may not fill the Palau Sant Jordi, but can still attract 9,000 spectators.
