Christmas fun club: you know pretty well what are the spots where to catch those Christmas vibes, and among them, there they are: Christmas markets! So here is a list of some of the most beautiful Christmas markets in Barcelona than you can’t miss:
Fira de Santa Llúcia
Who hasn’t visited Fira de Santa Llúcia for Christmas yet? It is probably the most popular Christmas market in Barcelona, which has a privileged background: Barcelona’s Cathedral. One of the perfect places in the city where to get some Christmas vibes. Also, you will find pretty and the most original Christmas decorations (Tió de Nadal and caganer are waiting for you to pick them up!).
- *When: November 26 – December 23.

Fira de Nadal del Port Vell
This is the perfect Christmas market to visit with kids, since it has a little but so pretty amusement park. So besides doing some Christmas shopping, you can have so much fun with the little ones. Also, the Christmas lights are beautifully displayed: there is a huge Christmas tree that you will easily spot from a far. So Fira de Port Vell is also among the Christmas markets in Barcelona that we highly recommend to visit.

Fira de Nadal de la Sagrada Família
