Holiday by Obbio: Drag, Pop and Themed Parties on Seville's Alameda

Holiday by Obbio is a club at Calle Jesús del Gran Poder 73, on the Alameda de Hércules in Seville, Spain, known for drag shows, themed parties and pop. A 2023 city guide called it one of the most inclusive spaces in Seville's nightlife, in a venue that still keeps part of its seventies look.

Holiday and Obbio: two names, two venues

The name confuses people, so let's sort it out. Its Instagram bio lists two venues: 'Holiday by Obbio [2015]', open every week, and 'Obbio Trastámara [1999]', on Calle Trastámara 29, which today is for events only. The Holiday you go dancing at is the one on Jesús del Gran Poder 73, in the Alameda. A 2023 city guide says the venue's story goes back to the seventies and that it keeps part of that look; the Holiday by Obbio brand, according to the club, dates from 2015. Both things can be true: an old room with a newer name.

What a night is like: drag, pop and themed parties

Holiday is not a techno club or a reggaeton club. Listings sum up its music as pop, 'petardeo' (the Spanish word for shamelessly danceable anthems) and remixes of 80s and 90s hits, and the 2023 guide highlights themed parties and packed drag shows. The club runs named parties through the year: in October 2026 it celebrated the 13th anniversary of 'Tragaperra' on the 11th, and for Saturday 31 October it announced 'Halloween Holiday' from 23:00 to 06:45. It's the kind of place where people sing along to every chorus, so go with that in mind.

Is it a gay club?

It's on the Alameda, the heart of LGBTQ+ nightlife in Seville, and its drag shows are a big part of the night, but the 2023 guide describes it as 'one of the most inclusive spaces' rather than an exclusively gay club: the crowd is mixed. Near it on the same axis you'll find Itaca, on Calle Amor de Dios, and several gay bars. In June the Alameda becomes the centre of Pride: in 2026 the events in the square ran from 25 to 28 June.

Age, dress code and practical tips

Holiday doesn't publish a minimum age or a dress code. The Andalusian rule bans under-16s from clubs and lets each venue ask for 18, which is the norm in Seville, so bring ID. There's no formal dress code to worry about: on themed nights, dressing up for the theme is half the fun. Closing follows the Andalusian limit, 06:00 on weeknights and 07:00 on Fridays, Saturdays and nights before a holiday. From the Alameda you can walk to most of the old town, and night buses leave from Prado de San Sebastián.
