I got into clubs/bars when I was 15, and that was in Germany and some other countries. Nobody cares. Since when is a 16 yo not allowed to have a night life??
Spain, of course.
But you'll have to wait two years....
You're not allowed to enter bars/discos or drink alcohol in terraces, etc, if you're below 18.
Nobody cared 20 years ago, but now EEC regulations are very stiff.
Of course, kids also get drunk buying alcohol and drinking in "botellones" (informal gatherings where kids get drunk..)..
In Barcelona there are many underage American kids learning Spanish in several programs, but they are well watched by monitors.
I've seen them having fun.
