Words, photographs and videos don't do justice to this fantastic attraction. During the summer months, it pays to stay as long as possible to fully appreciate both the formations and colours in the hours of darkness, although its still an awesome sight in any light. The highlight of our visit was the song "Barcelona" by Freddy Mercury and Monserrat Caballe... more

It's simply awesome. The best place to experience the beauty of the show is from the steps outside the MNAC. The MNAC is a museum at the top of Montjuic Mountain, and from the steps there is an undisturbed view all the way down to the fountain, plus you get to enjoy the night view across the city of Barcelona.... more

We planned our entire evening around making sure we saw the Magic Fountains because we had read such great reviews of them. We were there on a Saturday evening in April, around 8:00pm. While it was cool to see the fountains "dancing" to the music, it was not breathtaking since it wasn't even dark out yet! I imagine it would... more

The Magic Fountain is absolutely magnificent and it's a must for anyone visiting Barcelona. It's runs only from Thursday-Sundays from 9pm and is free. There will be crowd waiting prior to this time but don't worry about reserving seats, as you can easily enjoy this pretty much anywhere in the vicinity and it just runs continuously with only short a... more

Just returned from Barcelona. The wait in the damp, cold weather was worth it. We arrived @ 6:30 to get a good spot. We were not disappointed. A must see. more

Just back from Barcelona. Worth a trip to see the fountains. Got there about 6:45 for the 7PM start and got a spot right in front. We had no problem getting the Metro afterwards to return to our hotel. We took public transport, bus/Metro, the entire time and found it the best way around. very safe. more

Having read the reviews on here prior to our visit to Barcelona over Valentines weekend, I chose it as the venue for my romantic proposal to my girlfriend. Neither of us were disappointed. It was a beautiful and very romatic setting. A busy venue, so was a bit nerve racking getting down on one knee with so many people watching,... more

Just make sure you get there early, the display usualy starts at around 20.30 and continues untill about 23.00. There... more

We visited these fountains when we were on holiday at Costa Dorada in 2003. My husband and 2 teenage children were so impressed with the setting and thought it was just magical. In fact my husband and I felt that if anyone wanted the perfect setting to propose in then this had to be one of the best!!!! The romance... more
