You're welcome to book wherever suits you best, but we recommend staying near the Monument Hotel on Passeig de Gràcia. It's a fantastic central location with plenty of great hotels within easy walking distance, and the neighborhood itself is one of Barcelona's best — perfect for exploring before and after the celebrations. The Monument Hotel is also the pickup point for our guest shuttle, so staying nearby makes getting to the venue completely stress-free. Any questions about the area or finding accommodation? Don't hesitate to reach out!

PACKING LIST

Barcelona Guide

We're so excited to celebrate with you in one of our favorite cities. Barcelona is easy to navigate, incredibly walkable, and full of amazing food, architecture, and culture. Here are a few tips to help you make the most of your time there.

Getting around barcelona

WalkingBarcelona is an incredibly walkable city. Many of the city's most beautiful neighborhoods, restaurants, and attractions are best explored on foot.One thing to note: crosswalks are often set back slightly from street corners, so they may not be exactly where you expect them. MetroBarcelona's subway system is safe, affordable, and easy to use. The most challenging part is usually purchasing your ticket from the machine—the rest is very straightforward. Taxis &amp; Ride ShareWe recommend downloading Free Now, Barcelona's most popular taxi app (affiliated with Lyft).

Local Tips & Customs

LanguageYou'll hear both Spanish and Catalan spoken throughout the city. Both are official languages in Barcelona. Dining HoursBarcelona runs on a later schedule than most U.S. cities.Lunch is typically served in the afternoonMany shops and local businesses close for a few hours in the afternoonDinner often begins around 9:00 PMDon't be surprised if a restaurant feels quiet at 7:00 PM—locals are probably still getting ready for dinner. Siesta HoursMany smaller businesses and neighborhood restaurants close for a few hours in the afternoon, often between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM. ShoppingMost stores are closed on Sundays, so plan any shopping accordingly. Coffee To-GoCoffee culture is traditionally more sit-down than grab-and-go. If you're looking for coffee to take with you, larger chains such as Starbucks are often the easiest option.

CurrencySpain uses the Euro (€).Most restaurants, shops, taxis, and attractions accept credit cards, so carrying large amounts of cash isn't necessary. If you do need cash, ATMs are widely available throughout the city.When paying with a credit card, always choose to be charged in Euros (local currency) rather than USD or CAD for the best exchange rate. TippingTipping is appreciated but not expected in the same way it is in the United States. Rounding up the bill or leaving a few Euros is more than sufficient. VAT Tax RefundsMany purchases qualify for a VAT tax refund if you're visiting from outside the European Union. Be sure to bring your passport when shopping and ask the store about tax-free purchases. The refund can typically be processed directly back to your credit card at the airport before you depart. Emergency ServicesThe emergency number in Spain is 112.

BARCELONA GUIDE

INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS LEAVING BARCELONA

When you’re heading back home to the USA or Canada, you will need to go through passport control after you get through security and before you reach your gate. Please buffer your time accordingly. When you’re ready to leave the shops in the terminal, walk towards the Santa Maria sandwich shop and make a hard right towards the McDonalds. Take a right up the escalator towards gates D and E. Follow the signs according to your citizenship.
