Barcelona in spring is a magical time to enjoy the city. The sun shines
brighter, flowers adorn street corners, the terraces fill with people. The
setting is perfect for outdoor activities.

Here are 10 things to see and do to make the most of spring in Barcelona: 


1. SPENDING TIME ON A TERRACE

There’s no better weather to enjoy Barcelona’s terraces! Enjoy some tapas with
your friends, a romantic dinner with your partner, or a traditional vermouth.
The terraces are the real stars of the season when it comes to Spring plans. 

Enjoy a gastronomic journey of Mediterranean cuisine at La Terraza del Claris,
located on the rooftop of the emblematic Claris Hotel & Spa 5*GL. You can also
savour delicious, sophisticated cocktails with views over Barcelona’s Eixample
while you’re there.


2. SPRING: BEACH WEATHER

With the arrival of the sun, beach season begins. Grab a towel and a good book
and stroll to the emblematic Barceloneta to enjoy the warm weather. Some of the
closest beaches to the centre of Barcelona are San Sebastián, Bogatell, and Nova
Icària. 

As the beaches are not as crowded in May and June as they are in July, make the
most of them and enjoy the sun, sea and sand while you can.


3. MUSIC FESTIVALS IN SPRING

Spring is also when Barcelona’s music festivals flourish! It’s when the city
hosts two of the most internationally renowned festivals, Primavera Sound and
Sonar. With concerts and major festivals, this is the time of year when a whole
variety of events come to life in the city, so it’s important you book your
hotel in Barcelona in advance. 


4. IMPORTANT LANDMARKS

Make sure to explore the landmarks that should be on every traveller’s bucket
list when visiting the Catalan capital. To see the genius of Catalan architect
Antoni Gaudí, try the Sagrada Familia, Casa Batlló, Park Güell, and La Pedrera.

If you want to go for a walk around the city, you’ll find countless
architectural wonders and sites packed full of history, such as the Cathedral of
Barcelona, the Palau de la Música, the Basilica de Santa María del Mar, and the
Arc de Triomf, among others.


5. SANT JORDI: A SPRING TRADITION

On 23 April, Catalonia celebrates its most romantic tradition of the year, Sant
Jordi’s Day. Also known as the “day of books and roses”, it’s the perfect time
to stroll through the streets of Barcelona, which are filled with books and
roses stalls. The tradition is to exchange books and roses, not only with your
partner, but with your family and friends too.

It has its roots in the famous Sant Jordi legend, a knight who slew the dragon
terrorising his town and rescued the princess. Legend has it that, when he drove
his sword into the dragon, beautiful red roses sprouted from the beast, one of
which Sant Jordi gave to the princess.

On 23 and 24 April, La Terraza del Claris will offer a special Sant Jordi Menu.
You can enjoy it with your partner, friends or family for lunch or dinner while
enjoying the views over the emblematic Eixample district.


6. NIGHT OF THE MUSEUMS

On 14 May, Barcelona celebrates culture with its Night of Museums. Various
heritage landmarks and museums open their doors from 7pm until 1am to share art,
history and science with the public in a unique environment. In addition to
offering free admission to the museums, various workshops, guided tours and
activities are organised throughout the day.

Derby Hotels Collection participates every year by opening the doors of the
Opisso Museum, located in Hotel Astoria. It houses the largest existing
collection of paintings and drawings by Ricard Opisso, one of the great Catalan
artists who captured Barcelona life in the first half of the 20th century.


7. GARDENS: SPRING BLOOMS

With the arrival of spring, trees and flowers are reborn, making it the perfect
time to visit the city’s parks and gardens. 

Montjuic mountain is full of green spaces that bloom in all their splendour in
spring. The botanical diversity is astounding. The architecture gives the parks
gives a romantic air that you’ll find in few other places in the city.


8. SPRING FESTIVALS

Spring is also the time of year when food fairs and street markets come to life.
There, you can find a variety of wonderful handicrafts, clothes and accessories.
Also, various cultural events are held during Spring. Such as the Matsuri
Festival, which takes place in June. The festival showcases traditional Japanese
culture through its gastronomy, music, dances, games and workshops organised by
the Japanese Culture Association.


9. MUSEUMS

Barcelona is one of the most culturally rich cities in Europe. Spring is the
perfect time to enjoy its museums. You won’t find as many people as you would
during summer. 

Some of the most emblematic museums in Barcelona are: the National Art Museum of
Catalonia, the Picasso Museum, the Joan Miró Foundation, and the European Museum
of Modern Art. The Egyptian Museum is also a must see, to which you’ll have free
access if you book your stay at any of the Derby Hotels Collection hotels.


10. SHOPPING IN SPRING

The spring weather is perfect for shopping in Barcelona. If shopping is your
passion, be sure to book a hotel near the main retail streets. Hotel Claris is
located just steps away from Passeig de Gracia. There, you’ll find classic
luxury shops including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Gucci, Dolce&Gabbana,
Michael Kors and Cartier, as well as more recent brands such as Balenciaga.

Spring is the perfect time to visit Barcelona. Get lost in its streets, and
discover the city with all its wondrous sights in full colour, all while
enjoying unbeatable weather.
