Spanish (Spain) slang term
Good afternoon! Here's a phrase introducing a new series of restaurant shows:
Las VELADAS MÁS CANALLAS de la capital están en XXXXX Restaurante & Bar
XXXXX Shows
Diversión asegurada con un espectáculo único...
So, would "canalla" be the same as "bacán", in other words, a more intense form of "exciting"?
As always, a thousand thanks!

canallas - arousing
suggestion. I agree with what you said about "more than exciting", I think arousing would be a good term.
Note from asker:
| Thanks, Ms. Rodrigues. What about "the flashiest nights"? |
| I'll bear that in mind...:-) |

wickedest evening sessions
"Canalla" is usually an insult, akin to bastard or scumbag. However, in this context it means something along the lines of "offbeat/louche/naughty/sexy/wild/wicked/outré"...
"The wickedest evenings in the capital..."
"The wickedest evenings in the capital..."

Urban Dictionary:
A word used to describe just about anything good in life, good news, a sick skateboard trick, a nice sports car, etc. Also one of the most casual yet satisfying words in modern slang. It can be used to varying levels of intensity anywhere from a casual "dope" to a mega hype "that's freaking dope man!".
