The ticketed days out kids ask for by name, from amusement park rides and indoor trampolines to ice skating, go-karts, bowling, VR and escape rooms, all worth booking ahead at weekends and in school holidays.
An indoor karting center with a 500m asphalt track that runs through tunnels, chicanes, and banked corners. Kids from 6 (minimum height 1.25m) drive petrol Sodikarts on the main circuit, while 2 to 6-year-olds ride electric mini-karts on a separate Monaco-themed track, with an adult able to sit behind. The same building has bowling, laser tag, and a burger-and-pizza restaurant.
An indoor trampoline park in Cornellà with wall-to-wall jump courts, a foam pit, and a battle-beam pit. Beyond trampolines there's the SkyRider overhead zipline, a Ninja Course, Clip 'N Climb walls, high ropes, a jump tower, and a younger KidsZone. Sessions run by the hour, and grippy socks are required. Changing rooms and free lockers are on site.
A Les Corts fixture since 1978, with 14 automatic lanes set against a brick mural of the skyline and a lighter crowd than the Diagonal Mar alley. Bumpers cover children up to 14 and ramps help younger kids who cannot yet swing a ball get it down the lane. There is no booking, so you turn up and request a lane, and a bar-restaurant, pool tables and foosball are on site.
A full-size 30x60m ice rink at the FC Barcelona sports complex in Les Corts, with the club crest painted at center ice and tiered seating along one side. Public sessions let anyone lace up rental skates and circle the ice, and the on-site skating school runs graded courses in figure skating for kids and adults. It is the only year-round indoor rink in the city.
A bowling and arcade center on the top floor of the Diagonal Mar mall, run by Ilusiona. It packs lit bowling lanes with bumpers, next-generation arcade and ticket-redemption machines, VR driving and space-battle simulators, and a large space-themed soft-play park for younger kids. Air-conditioned, with a bar and birthday party rooms.
A virtual-reality arcade with eight headset stations running over 60 Meta Quest 3 games, from zombie shooters and dancing to ocean exploration. Groups of two to eight play together in the same session, and there is a multiplayer VR escape room as an alternative. Staff set up the headsets and adjust each game to the players' age and experience.
Barcelona Bosc Urbà is an aerial adventure park under the giant solar canopy at Parc del Fòrum. Two harnessed rope circuits run five meters up: 14 family challenges with barrel tunnels, wobbly bridges and zip lines, plus 15 tougher sports challenges. A netted high-altitude trampoline zone and a food truck with monitor-led kids' games complete the park.
A live escape room set in a moody, early-1900s mansion: a young heiress has been murdered and her spirit is trapped inside, and your team has 60 minutes to crack the puzzles and set her free. It takes large parties, up to about 21 players at once, and runs in Catalan, Spanish, English and French, so non-Spanish-speaking families can play in their own language.
An 18th-century military fortress on the 173-meter Montjuïc hill, built in a star shape with angled bastions, a dry moat crossed by a stone bridge, and a watchtower. Kids can walk the ramparts, peer through gun embrasures at the rusted coastal cannons, and cross the drawbridge into the parade ground. The wraparound terrace gives a 360-degree view over the harbor, the sea, and the rooftops below.
Open since 1901, this mountaintop park stacks more than 30 rides up the side of Collserola. The signature Avió has swung kids out over the rooftops since 1928, and there is a hand-painted carousel, the Muntanya Russa rollercoaster, the Miramiralls hall of mirrors, and a small Automaton Museum. A separate Panoramic Area holds gentler rides for the youngest, and the Cuca de Llum funicular carries you up to the top.
