Cops videoed their raid of the illegal party in the capital with revellers scrambling under beds and into cupboards to escape from sight.
As hapless ravers emerged from the closet they were arrested by police for breaching of coronavirus regulations.
Other camera footage from the weekend shows police raiding another party at a bar in Madrid where they found alcohol and people partying without masks.
