El Capitan’s Social Club Fast Track Pass

What is a Social Club Fast Track Pass?

El Capitan is a Barcelona based brand and service provider that is working together with many cannabis clubs / Social clubs in Barcelona. Since you cannot become a Member of a social club in Barcelona without being introduced by an already existing member,  El Capitan offers the possibility to introduce you to one of their partner clubs and give you fast track access to the responsible person at the social club. It is also important to notice that coffee shops as you might know them don't exist in Barcelona. A Coffee shop is a term that comes from Amsterdam whereas in Barcelona we are always talking about social clubs or private clubs.

How does a Social Club Fast Track Pass work?

Before you go to the Social Club

If you comply with the legal age (21 or older) you can purchase a Social Club Fast Track Pass. Once you purchase the fast track pass, you will directly receive a “confirmation ticket” with your personal details on it. In the meantime, El Capitan will automatically get in touch with the Social Club and add you to a Special “Guest List”.
In your personal “Confirmation ticket” you will also have the contact details of the Social Club as well as their opening time. In addition to that you will receive an email which will explain to you the rules of the Social Club and how you should behave as well as what is legal and what not. Directly after purchasing the Social Club Fast Track Pass you can go to the social club whenever you want. The receptionist knows you are coming and will be awaiting you at your convenient time. 

When you arrive at the Social Club

Once you arrive at the Social Club, you have to show the ticket to the person at the reception and state your name and show your valid Personal ID. The receptionist will then determine if you comply with all their rules and if they want to let you into the social club.
At this point you normally have to pay a non-refundable membership fee which is usually between 20€ and 50€ but in this case you will not have to pay this fee because you come from El Capitan. The receptionist will give you your personal membership card which you can charge with as much money as you want. Normally there is a minimum of 20€ but that depends on the club. With this membership card and the money you added to the card you can now access the Social Cub and consume whatever you wish.
