Plan Your Visit to Barcelona with Kids

Poble Espanyol turns spooky, with 30+ costumed characters, a clue hunt and mystery tunnels. The ticket includes entry to the whole village.

A €3 add-on at the entrance: children find six Castanyada and Halloween characters among the illusions and get a gift from the shop. Not scary.

Bake butter cookies and decorate them with chocolate, Halloween style. 90 minutes, with a tasting and museum entry. Adults need a ticket too.

Cinderella told through ballet, with dancers in light-up costumes. The one-hour show is at Auditori l’Illa and is recommended for ages 5 and up. A great autumn or Christmas treat.

The hilltop park goes spooky, with a new zombie show at dusk, the Hotel 666 walk-through, photos with horror characters and Halloween decorations.

A Halloween parade, trick-or-treat and Day of the Dead shows across the park. This day trip from Barcelona includes the coach and park entry.

A CosmoCaixa exhibition from the Australian Museum, with ten life-size sharks, a megalodon jaw, shark skin to touch and its own aquarium.

A 45-minute candlelit concert for parents and babies up to 36 months, with classical music at a volume suited to little ears. Families sit on cushions on a padded floor.
