Fabrik is a 4,000-plus capacity electronic music club in Humanes de Madrid, about 28 km south of Templo de Debod, not in the city itself. Its November and December 2026 nights are Saturdays from 6pm or 10pm until 6am, with New Year’s Eve running from 12.30am to 7am, and the problem for a visitor is rarely the way there: it is getting back to a hotel in the centre at dawn. The club’s own coach solves both ends for €10 return, leaving from Pintor Rosales 2 until around 1am and returning to Príncipe Pío from about 4.30am. General admission for November and December runs from €30 to €40 plus fees.
How do you get to Fabrik Madrid from the city centre? By the Fabrik club coach from Pintor Rosales 2, beside Templo de Debod: €6 one way, €10 return, running from opening until about 1am and back to Príncipe Pío from 4.30am. The alternative is the C-5 Cercanías train to Humanes, 31 minutes from Atocha, then a 1,900-metre walk.
- Book ahead: the coach sells online until noon on the day; on board it costs more, cash only.
- Getting home: the coach drops you at Príncipe Pío, where the Metro opens at 6am.
- At the door: 18 and over; non-EU visitors need their passport, not a driving licence.
- Watch out: the cloakroom is €3 an item, cash only, and there are no phone chargers.
Is Fabrik actually in Madrid?
Fabrik is in Humanes de Madrid, a separate town on Madrid’s southern edge, at Avenida de la Industria 82 on an industrial estate. By road it is about 28 km from Templo de Debod, roughly 30 minutes without traffic. No Metro line reaches it, and the only option that drops you at the door and also runs back before 6am is the club coach.
The address catches people out. Ride-hailing apps and taxi drivers need Fabrik, Avenida de la Industria 82, Humanes de Madrid; typing just “Fabrik Madrid” can send you to the wrong place. If you would rather stay in town, the city’s late-night areas and the clubs you can walk home from are mapped in Madrid nightlife by area and opening hours.
How does the Fabrik shuttle bus work?
The Fabrik shuttle leaves Pintor Rosales 2, beside Templo de Debod and a few minutes’ walk from Plaza de España, as a continuous loop: one coach fills and goes, the next pulls in. It runs from the time the doors open until around 1am, costs €6 each way or €10 return, and is added to your ticket on Ticketclub.
Online sales close at noon on the day of the event. After that you can still pay on board, but it costs more and it is cash only. A second route runs from Fuenlabrada Central station, on the C-5 and Metro Line 12, for €5 one way or €8 return, and drops you back there.
Debod or Fuenlabrada? The Fuenlabrada route saves €2 on a return, €8 against €10, and only makes sense if you are staying near Fuenlabrada Central or arriving there on the C-5 or Line 12. For a hotel in central Madrid it is the wrong choice: it brings you back to Fuenlabrada, 4.4 km from the club and far from the city, while the Debod coach ends at Príncipe Pío.
How do you get back to your hotel in central Madrid after Fabrik?
Which option suits you depends on where you sleep. Staying around Sol, Gran Vía, Ópera or Plaza de España, take the club coach from Debod both ways: it brings you back to Príncipe Pío, within walking distance of those areas. Staying near Atocha, the C-5 is worth a look: Humanes to Atocha takes 31 minutes and the first Sunday train leaves at 5.26am, arriving 5.57am, as long as you can manage the 1,900-metre walk to the station.
Fabrik’s return coaches line up outside from about 4.30am and leave each time 50 people are on board, until the club empties. The Madrid coach ends at the Príncipe Pío roundabout, not at Templo de Debod, and the Metro opens only at 6am, so most visitors land with a gap to fill.
Arriving at Príncipe Pío before the Metro opens at 6am, you have three ways to cover the last leg, in order of cost:
- Walk or wait for the Metro. Príncipe Pío is on Lines 6 and 10 and the Ramal to Ópera; the first trains run at 6am. Hotels around Ópera, Plaza de España or Gran Vía are within walking distance.
- EMT night buses. The city’s “búho” buses run until the Metro reopens; routes and frequencies are in Madrid Metro hours and night buses.
- Taxi or ride-hailing from Príncipe Pío. A short city fare is far cheaper than a taxi from Humanes, which leaves the city limits and runs on the meter. How taxis and VTC apps compare on price is in taxi or ride-hailing in Madrid. Getting home from a big concert in town is far simpler, as getting to and from the Movistar Arena shows.
Can you get to Fabrik by train or public bus?
You can, but only one way in comfort. The Cercanías C-5 reaches Humanes, the end of the line, 31 minutes from Atocha, and the station is about 1,900 metres from the club, a 25-minute walk through the industrial estate. Intercity buses 496 and 497 stop about 90 metres from the door, but their last departures leave the terminus at 10.30pm and 11.10pm.
Train times on Saturday and Sunday. The last C-5 trains leave Atocha for Humanes at 11.16pm, 11.31pm, 11.46pm and 12.11am, the last one arriving at 12.41am. The first ones back leave Humanes at 5.26am, 5.56am, 6.24am and 6.54am, one every half hour. With a 25-minute walk, leaving at the 6am close gets you there just in time for the 6.24am, or comfortably for the 6.54am; to catch the 5.26am you need to leave before 5am. Fares work by zones, explained in Madrid Cercanías ticket zones.
Intercity buses. The 496 runs from Fuenlabrada to the Xanadú shopping centre and stops at Fuenlabrada Central on the way back; its last departure towards Fabrik leaves the terminus at 10.30pm and the first one back leaves its terminus at 6.45am. The 497 comes from Leganés (Parquesur): last departure from the terminus 11.10pm, first back from Las Colinas 6.40am. All these are terminus departure times, not times at the Fabrik stop, which the bus reaches later; times at each stop are not published. The stop is in fare zone B3; the CRTM sets the zones, and a visitor’s zone A travel card does not cover B3.
Night bus N807. The Atocha-Getafe-Humanes-Griñón night line stops on Calle Madrid in Humanes, about 2,500 metres from the club, a 33-minute walk, with two early-morning departures towards Atocha.
How much does a night at Fabrik cost?
General admission for Fabrik’s November and December 2026 nights costs €35 to €40 plus a €3.50 to €4 booking fee, depending on the night and the price tier on sale; SHARK’s New Year’s Eve starts at €30. As an example, CODE on 14 November: a €40 general ticket, a €4 fee, the €10 return coach and €3 for a coat add up to €57 before your first drink at the bar.
| Date | Night | Doors | General ticket | Return coach from Templo de Debod |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Saturday 14 November | CODE, Trilogy part two (techno) | 6pm to 6am | €40 + €4 fee; early entry €30 + €3 | €10 |
| Saturday 21 November | 150 with Dimitri Vegas (hard dance) | 10pm to 6am | €35 + €3.50 | €10 |
| Saturday 28 November | Makineros XXL Winter Edition (makina) | 6pm to 6am | €35 + €3.50 | €10 |
| Saturday 5 December | CODE, Trilogy part three | 6pm to 6am | €40 + €4; early entry €30 + €3 | €10 |
| Saturday 19 December | Masters of Hardcore | 6pm to 6am | €38 + €3.80 | €10 |
| Thursday 31 December | SHARK New Year’s Eve (urban, commercial, electronic) | 12.30am to 7am | €30 to €35 + €3 to €3.50 | €10 |
On all six nights in the table, the general ticket includes two drinks in the first hour and one in the second, so arriving at CODE on 14 November at 9pm means paying the same with nothing included. The early-entry ticket for CODE gets you in between 6pm and 8pm with no drinks. Fabrik only guarantees tickets sold on Fever and Ticketclub, does not allow resale and offers no refunds unless the event is cancelled; door sales happen only if there is space left.
What ID and dress code do you need at Fabrik’s door?
Fabrik admits 18 and over with an original photo document. EU citizens can use a national ID card or passport; non-EU visitors need their passport. A driving licence, a photocopy or a photo on your phone will be refused, so the passport has to come with you, not stay in the hotel safe.
There is no fixed dress code: the club reserves the right of admission on clothing and each event sets its own terms. Security checks are done at the entrance by male and female staff. Outside drinks are not allowed, medication has to be in its original packaging with a prescription, and professional cameras are banned. Bags are fine; suitcases go to one of the five cloakrooms. If you want to skip the queue, individual VIP tickets with fast access start at €90 on Ticketclub, and tables are booked on 916 15 64 02. Tipping at the bar is not expected in Spain.
Is getting to and from Fabrik safe at night?
Getting to and from Fabrik is straightforward if you stay with the club coach, which runs door to door at both ends of the night. The risks for a visitor are practical: a phone with no battery, no cash for the cloakroom, or a ticket bought from a reseller that the club does not recognise.
- Charge your phone before you leave. Fabrik has no charging points, and you will need the phone for the ticket QR code, the coach and any ride home.
- Carry some cash. The cloakroom is €3 an item, cash only, and coach tickets bought on board are cash only too. Inside, bars take contactless and cards, with ID matching the name on the card, and there are cash machines.
- Use a locker if you carry valuables. Lockers cost €8 and you can open them as often as you like through the night; numbers are limited, so book ahead.
- Leaving early has a price. You can step out and come back only from 2 hours 30 minutes after opening, with an exit stamp at €13 (€12 for members) that includes a drink.
- In an emergency, the number in Spain is 112.
Where is Fabrik and which station is closest?
Fabrik sits north of the centre of Humanes de Madrid, on Avenida de la Industria among industrial estates. Humanes Cercanías station is south-east of the club, about 1,900 metres on foot, and Fuenlabrada Central, where the cheaper club coach leaves, is about 4.4 km to the north-east, a 58-minute walk.
The 6am close is the time the Comunidad de Madrid sets for clubs on Fridays, Saturdays and the eve of public holidays; the rest of the city’s closing times are in Madrid closing times for bars and clubs.
What might put you off Fabrik?
- The distance. Without the coach, the night starts and ends with a long taxi ride or a 25-minute walk through an industrial estate.
- Twelve-hour events. CODE or Masters of Hardcore run from 6pm to 6am across several rooms; if you want a short night in the centre, try the best cocktail bars in Madrid or Madrid’s jazz clubs.
- Included drinks expire. On the November and December nights in the table, they only count during the first two hours.
- Cash at the cloakroom. Cards will not help you there.
