Could not access tickets and had to pay again

Christina_R, Apr 2026
I did not receive my tickets via email. I could not access them in the app even when clicking the “get your tickets” button. The venue staff were rude and unhelpful. I tried to call the customer service number and my call kept getting rejected.

Inspiration

Martin_P, Apr 2026
Well worth the visit! Loved the acoustics of the organ! Beautiful colours and sights. Good audio guide.

Palace de Musica

lightontario, Apr 2026
Nice audio tour. Staff helpful. Very beautiful inside. Taped music played at intervals which was unexpected. I booked this tour as I had a little extra time and I am glad I did.

We weren’t given ear...

Jeanne_P, Oct 2025
We weren’t given ear pieces to listen to the information about the theater. It was a waist of time and money. The theater is beautiful but not well organized for the self guided tour with audio.

No ticket that I had paid for

carrianne_c, Jul 2025
I got there and the ticket office said that I hadn't paid for the tour that was charged to my crédit card over a month ago so I had to purchase another ticket thru the museum

Absolute must-see in Barcelona

Celeste_S, Jul 2025
Regrettably the closest train station was under construction in august. It took longer to get to on foot from a the main plaza. I would’ve like to eaten something at the beautiful cafe on site. The Palau de musica is a hidden jewel in Barcelona with its ornate stain glass, statues, and mosaics. I had a tour early in the morning so I cancelled my flamenco show of that evening at 9pm. It would’ve been amazing to watch in such a beautiful place.

Worthy Experience

Susan_R, Jul 2025
Every square inch displays artistry and symbolism. Visiting Palau de Musica is definitely an experience worth spending precious time and money from your travel budget. It is an amazing structure with plenty of photo opps!

Beautiful Hall

Tammy_G, Apr 2025
Stunning hall with beautiful architecture. Practice was going on at the time, which enhanced the whole experience.

Just OK but Very Helpful Pleasant Staff

Anita_H, Mar 2025
It just wasn't a whole lot to see here although the artitecture was beautiful. The staff was helpful. If you wanted to do this tour it would only take about an hour at the most not much more.

A Must See in Barcelona!

Rick_F, Mar 2025
First, you should know this is an audio tour that you listen to from your phone. You download it with a code that is on your booking (four digits). There is no human involved. There is a person in the lobby and we just went up to them showing our ticket on our phone, near to the time our scheduled visit, they scanned it, and off you go up the stairs. If you want to see the pictures the audio is referring to then you should have earbuds or headphones so you can look at them while listening to the recording. If you have your phone up to your ear obviously you can't see them at the same time. There is also a 360 degree picture on one of the stops with music playing in the background, so headphones/earbuds would be best for that. Next, there is a great cafe there, that anyone can walk into off the street without tickets (also rest rooms). Also an outdoor area with tables/umbrellas outside the cafe. And the requisite gift shop, of course. The Palau itself is beautiful. The balcony is amazing (best pics if there isn't a tour group filling it!) The music hall itself is stunning! We were only able to go up to the top level (the audio tour includes the lower level, but it was blocked off). You can sit and take pics while you listen to your audio guide description. It is truly worth the price of admission to see it. Bonus when we were there, there was a pianist on stage playing so you could get a feel for the remarkable unamplified acoustic. We are very happy we did this and was able to see this architectural marvel!

A rare gem not to be missed!

Cathy_B, Jan 2025
An amazing concert facility unlike any other. Can't believe I never knew about this facility as I had visited Barcelona many times before. There is so much to see architectually. I was like a child in awe, the more i saw.

Gorgeous

hannah_f, Dec 2024
The tour is beautiful. The staff was a bit all over the place and were confusing. The audio didn't work well on my phone, so I ditched it. Worth it to see the gorgeous architecture, design and music!!

Beautiful place

Jennifer_S, Nov 2024
Such a beautiful and peaceful theater, I would have loved to see a show there. You should definitely try to do that. as far as the guide. It was a little confusing. There was no earpiece so to hear the guide on your phone was hard.

Beautiful but a difficult visit

MariePaule_H, Sep 2024
We were goed in time at the entrance. Some people were already waiting to be helped for installing the audio guide on the mobile phone. Finally we also needed help, so we could enter 20 minutes later. Sometimes the application stopped. At the end we had to leave at 17:00 The real time we could spend on the visit was leds than 30 minutes. Disappointed we had to leave this extraordinary beautiful place.

Amazing

Maryjo_W, Aug 2024
I loved all the detail in the decor along with the history of composers who played here. The organ was fabulous. I would highly recommend this experience.

Audi guide not the best option

Vasanthi_N, Aug 2024
This is a beautiful music hall. I would have preferred a personal guide that may have explained the design details in greater detail than what the Audioguide offered. This was a challenge for me.

Left in Awe

Julia_G, Aug 2024
Beautiful exhibition and great guide. He spoke clearly and was very educated ln the history of the Palau. The sound of the organ was beautiful to witness. Definitely recommend 👌🏼

watching a rehearsal is amazing

Ping_L, Jul 2024
watching a rehearsal is amazing, with lights on is a bonus, the croissant at the cafe was excellent. only problem is the ticket we booked online is confusing, the guards there could not speak english and could not help, and did not allow us in. finally after seeing the boss, we were allowed in. The exact appointment point was missing, dont know where to go and many other groups /tour guides around but could not see viator's ... lack of instuction.

Must see in Barcelona!

Jennifer_R, Jun 2024
The musical expertise Was unparallel. And the dancing was absolutely spectacular. This was my first time to Barcelona and to see flamenco, and I am already going back again, two days later.

True gem

Ellis_W, May 2024
What a wonderful surprise for something that was not on our original itinerary. The exquisite craftsmanship was unbelievable. Only wish that we could have planned to hear a performance here.

Comprehensive and relaxed audio tour

Valerie_C, May 2024
The audio tour is complete and easy to understand. Go at your own pace and enjoy this most fantastical piece of architecture in Barcelona!

Go

Kar, May 2024
Amazing venue. A must see In Barcelona. Beautiful colors and interesting design. You only need an hour to see the building

Beautiful

Jeanette_V, Apr 2024
Had trouble connecting to my phone for the self guided tour, but someone helped me do it. The interior was just amazing.

Beautiful experience

Abhinav_G, Mar 2024
Extremely beautiful concert auditorium with fantastic architecture rooted in music and theater history. If you have a genuine interest in history and architecture, the self guided tour is great since you can do it at your own pace and take it all in.

I would enjoyed it more...

Claudia_D, Jan 2024
I would enjoyed it more with a tour guide. The self guided tour wasn’t very informative But I recommend to visit it

The dreamer’s Music Box

Claudia_M, Oct 2023
It is a dream music box! Much bigger it looks like from the outside. Loved the possibility of listening to parts of memorable concerts as they happened there! Loved the exeperience!

Amazing musica

Bodun_A, Sep 2023
The venue was amazing . There was a lot to see and my friend and I had a good time. I especially enjoyed the pillars

Music palace full of art and history

Keith_H, Sep 2023
This was an amazing self guided audio tour of the fabulous music hall designed by the man who taught Gaudi himself. Informative yet casual as you took in the ambiance and art that surrounded you. We also got to hear the organ play! Nicely decorated area to get a coffee on the first floor. Every staff member was helpful with any assistance you needed.

Must see for Barcelona

Kimberly_H, Sep 2023
Definitely recommend visiting. I booked last minute and so glad I did. I took the self guided audio tour and found the information helpful. The interior was truly amazing and must be seen

Absolutely beatiful space. Highly recommend a visit.

Jan_T, Aug 2023
