Barcelona Travel Forum

Hello,

I was confused by the various days mentioned by different travelers as to when the fountains of Montjuic perform the show. Could you please suggest a reliable website that clarifies this question? I am planning the go to Barcelona around September 20th.

Thank you in advance

On the official Barcelona website the times are as follows:

Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 9pm to 11.15pm

Sight and sound (so: music and illumination) at 9.30pm, 10pm, 10.30pm and 11pm

Don't miss them as the show is fun to watch. I saw them on a Sunday night since I was up at the Olympic Park and Poble Espanyol (which is free on Sunday after 8pm) and the fountain show with lights and music was great.

I actually didn't know about the fountain show and was wondering why so many people were gathered nearby when I arrived about 5-6pm. Funny thing is I told my wife that maybe they turn the fountains on at night and play music! Which is exactly what we saw after Poble Espanyol about 10pm or so. Very crowded, from the placa around the fountains to the steps up to the Palau Nacional, so get there early to get a good viewing spot.
