Mobility in Montjuïc for the Barça match coinciding with Piromusical

FC Barcelona are playing at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys again on Sunday, 28, with a league match against Real Sociedad at 6.30 pm, followed by a Champions League clash with PSG on Wednesday, 1 October, at 9 pm. The Sunday match coincides with the music and firework spectacular for La Mercè, meaning fans won’t be able to get to the stadium using the steps on Montjuïc and the shuttle bus won’t be leaving from Pl. Espanya, but from Av. Francesc Ferrer i Guàrdia, in front of the CaixaFòrum.

The FC Barcelona matches on Sunday, 28 September, and Wednesday, 1 October, mean a special mobility operation will be in place limiting access to Montjuïc for private vehicles from three or four hours before kick-off. People are advised to get to the stadium on foot, on public transport or by bike.

Fans can get to the stadium on foot from Pl. Espanya, from C/ Foc and from Av. Miramar, if using the funicular. On Wednesday, 1 October, the escalators will be in service to get to and from the stadium before and after the match with PSG. On Sunday, 28 September, all the steps will be closed from 3 pm, meaning that to get from Av. Reina Maria Cristina to the Anella Olímpica on foot, spectators will need to follow Av. Francesc Ferrer i Guàrdia or Av. Santa Madrona. The same applies after the match, to get down to Av. Reina Maria Cristina, occupied by those attending the music and firework display.

The recommended route to leave, once the match is over, is towards the Zona Franca promenade, as the audience for the Piromusical will gather on Avinguda de la Reina Maria Cristina. The esplanade of the Anella Olímpica will be open to anyone who wants to see the fireworks after the match.

Options for reaching the Anella Olímpica on public transport:

  • Shuttle bus service to the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys from Av. Reina Maria Cristina or the Fira 2 car park, located next to the pavilions of Fira de Barcelona Gran Via. The service to reach the stadium starts two hours before kick-off and the return service starts straight after the match. The shuttle bus will not be operating from Pl. Espanya this Sunday, but from Av. Francesc Ferrer i Guàrdia, in front of the CaixaFòrum. After the match, all shuttle buses will use C/ Foc to go towards the Fira 2 car park, with no buses travelling towards Pl. Espanya.
  • Bus services reaching the area around the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys: X3, 13, 55, 150, 23 and 125. Service disruptions and planned reinforcements can be checked on the TMB website.
  • Funicular de Montjuïc, getting to the stadium afterwards on foot via Av. Miramar.
  • Metro: the metro stops nearest to the Parc de Montjuïc are Espanya (L1, L3, L8 and other FGC lines, Poble-sec (L3), Paral·lel (L2 and L3), Foc (L10 Sud), Foneria (L10 Sud) and Magòria – La Campana (L8 and other FGC lines). If you’re arriving by metro in Pl. Espanya on Sunday, bear in mind that the steps up the mountain will be closed from 3 pm for preparations for the music and firework spectacular.
