Within a week of the most important meals and dinners of the year, some families have already planned their Christmas menu. If you are not kitchen lovers and want your holidays to be different, we propose the best plans to enjoy Christmas in Barcelona.
It’s Cotton House Hotel first year and they want to celebrate it in style. Their house is fully decorated with ornaments and a tree that contains 8000 cotton springs which pay tribute to the name of the hotel. Everything is also ready for hotel guests and Catalan families who have chosen this place as the best setting to celebrate their holidays. During these days there are special menus for groups and business dinners and have prepared a brunch for the 25th and 26th. The hotel chef will also prepare show cooking and a Candy Bar for the youngest kids. Santa and the Three Kings are also expected during these days.

Another recognized chef and worthy of a Michelin star is Marc Gascons. In his restaurant Informal in The Serras hotel, he has designed his proposal for these dates. We highlight the Christmas and Boxing Day menu, with the essential ingredients of a Catalan Christmas dinner. You will find escudella and carn d’olla or cannelloni, turrón and cava, or catalan champagne. If you are looking for tradition in a modern and unique space this is your best option.
After many days of endless meals, we reach the longest night of the year, New Year’s Eve. The official year-end party in Barcelona is held in Montjuic. From 23: 00h, you will enjoy a free show of performing arts and the fountains as main players of the night. At 0:00 the 12 strokes are accompanied in Spain by 12 lucky grapes and then a fireworks display that performs during several minutes. Each year, hundreds of Catalans and tourists meet on Avenida Maria Cristina to welcome the New Year.
