VisitBarcelona official visitor guide

You can hear music all year round in Barcelona, and, when the fine weather comes, the city has an endless array of festivals in store. They cover every musical style and genre: some of them are being held for the first time in the city, while others are now established as world-class events, which have made Barcelona, with its ground-breaking and innovative programme, one of the world's music festival capitals.

In summer, in June and September, Barcelona's former villages host their neighbourhood festivals. They are the perfect excuse to visit the city and lose yourself in its districts that are dressed up to the nines. The Sants Festival keeps alive the spirit of a major festival that used to be held in honour of Saint Bartholomew, the patron saint of the former village of Sants.

Barcelona's endless sunny days make the entire spectrum of blues glimmer throughout the year. Barcelona has surprises in store every day, in summer and throughout the other seasons of the year.

We want to share with you a series of plans that ensure laughter, complicity and surprises to share with your family, and that we are confident you will always remember.
