Summer Sales Hotspots

Summer sales, which start in July and last until the end of August, draw many tourists, especially in the center—near Plaça de Catalunya, Passeig de Gracia, the Barri Gotic, and around Plaça de Sant Josep Oriol. If you go on a weekday, the shops will be emptier, and the lines will be shorter.

Winter Season Sales

Don't worry if you're not visiting during the summer sales. The winter sales, starting from January 7 and lasting till the end of February, offer a quieter shopping experience with equally attractive bargains.

Mid-Season Sales

Mid-season sales in Barcelona (March-June and September-November) are not quite as big, but they are also worth checking out. At this time, you can find interesting sales offers and buy something alluring at the best prices.
