Jazz links the Raval with Plaça Reial this weekend, theatre offers comedy in Spanish, Catalan and English, and neighbourhood venues add picture books, minerals and contemporary art. Book your main performance first, then add something nearby. Our selection includes nine entradas.com events, two major concerts and five city-calendar picks; Friday options have their own dates.

Theatre and comedy to book

Four ways to laugh and an unusual Montjuïc event. Check language and age: adult English comedy and a Catalan play suit different audiences.

Three ways to plan it

Cultural Saturday · Raval and Paral·lel

Choose rumba at 14:00 in Tres Xemeneies, then leave time before Xavi Maldonado at 20:30, Un tal Shakespeare at 21:00 or Facu Díaz at 22:30. Treat these as evening alternatives; check durations and travel before combining tickets.

Families · one morning plan at a time

Saturday: picture books 10:00–13:00 in Vilapicina. Sunday: dance at 12:00 in Muntaner or magic 11:00–13:30 in Glòries. Mineralexpo is another indoor option with workshops and a flexible visit.

Sunday · art and a concert

See Escenes in Sant Andreu between 11:00 and 15:00, then Chameleons: doors 19:00, support 19:30, band 20:30. Leave time for food and travel between these different neighbourhoods.

Before you go

  • Entradas.com “from” prices reflect the catalogue checked on 5 November. Final prices, fees, seats and sessions are confirmed at checkout. A ticket link does not guarantee availability.
  • The guide language is not the performance language. #ADULTING is in English, Un tal Shakespeare in Catalan and Sobria y Serena in Spanish. Check individual dance and concert session conditions.
  • All times are local Barcelona time. Allow time to reach and leave Montjuïc; Sant Jordi Club and Castell de Montjuïc are different venues. Check TMB and your ticket’s entrance details.
  • Check last-minute notices for outdoor activities. Free events may require booking, especially the flamenco workshops and events. This is not the month’s first Sunday; do not assume general free museum entry.
