Barcelona Terrace Week: free activities at the city’s best hotels

In summer, Barcelona really comes to life – al fresco living is a local speciality! Every year in early June, some of the city’s best hotels throw their doors open as part of Terrace Week.

Free activities in magnificent settings

Terrace Week is a major event on the Barcelona social scene since it was founded in 2011. This year, from June 7 to 16, 65 hotels participate in the event and they are offering over 240 original and free activities such as cookery and cocktail workshops, live music, yoga lessons, magic shows and special events for children.

Terrace Week: aaaand relax!

The terraces participating in the festival are absolutely magnificent, and most of them are located in 4- or 5-star hotels: there are some pretty impressive venues on the list! Take a look at the pictures and see for yourself…

Several of our favourite hotel terraces in Barcelona have joined in the action in previous years, including the 1898, the Duquesa de Cardona, the Condes de Barcelona, the España and the Pulitzer.
