Party Earth Review If one imagines an old candy shop – like something out of Harry Potter or a Disney film in which orphaned puppies teach a curmudgeonly confectioner how to love again – they might picture something strikingly similar to La Confitería. In fact, the vintage space was once a venue for sugary treats, but these days the original ... more

The sheer volume of activities in Barcelona, not to mention the insane variety of options, makes it easy to understand why tourists come and never want to leave. It also sheds light on how difficult it can be to plan a day once you and your friends get to Barcelona. The important thing to keep in mind is that when it comes to activities that are good for groups in Barcelona, you really can't go wrong: this city is amazing at providing a multitude of pastimes.
Some of the best group activities in Barcelona include getting lost winding through the streets of Barri Gótic during the day or pounding drinks in its many bars at night. Barceloneta and Port Olimpico offer golden sand and blue waves during the warmer months, while their world-famous clubs like Opium Mar keep clubbers occupied all year long.
If history, culture, and architecture are of interest, then head to Parc Güell, Montjuic, Passeig de Gracia, or La Sagrada Familia to experience some of Barcelona’s most famous sites.
With gorgeous beaches, amazing attractions, an incredible nightlife, and tons of flea markets, thrift shops, and stellar cuisine, there is no reason that Barcelona shouldn’t be at the top of the list for a group trip.
