The 2026 dates are not out yet. In 2025 the park's Christmas decorations went up in late November, and El Palau del Nadal ran Dec 13 to Jan 4 on weekends and school holidays, closed Dec 24, 25, 26 and 31 and Jan 1.

Do we need to book El Palau del Nadal?

Yes. Tickets are for a set time, with a new group every 15 minutes, so book online ahead, especially for weekends and the school break.

In 2025 El Palau del Nadal was €18 for adults and €14 for ages 2 to 12, and under 2s went free. Park entry was €15 for adults and €11 for kids 3 to 12. Check when booking whether a combined ticket is offered.

Is it OK for toddlers?

Yes. The Palau is heated and short, and the characters are friendly rather than scary.

About

At Christmas the little towns of Catalunya en Miniatura, a park of scale models of Catalan landmarks, are dressed in lights and decorations. Santa rides the park's small train with the kids and collects their letters, and a giant Tió waits to be hit with sticks. El Palau del Nadal is a short indoor theater walk where six fantasy characters guide small groups through a Christmas story.
