Barcelona Tour & Travel Guide - Where to Shop in Barcelona

The ‘Axis’

The axis is a 5km stretch up from La Rambla through Placa de Catalunya and onto Passeig de Gracia. The area from the Avenue Diagonal to the Placa de la Reina Maria Cristina is a perfect place for ardent shoppers. A host of international biggies have set up shop here including Versace, Cartier, Calvin Klein, Armani etc.

Department Stores

El Corte Ingles is one of Barcelona’s favourite department stores, stalking everything you’d need across several floors and located conveniently all over town. The winter sale in January is a great time to shop here. FNAC has a great range of books, CDs and videos.

Markets

Everything you could imagine at bargain prices. Only at the Fira de Bellcaire. Also known as Large Els Encants Vells (or 'the old charms). Every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Mercantic is a great market for antique collectors, open every Sunday. Festively painted timber huts stalk everything from old telephones to furniture. Souvenirs: If football defines your life, head to La Botiga del Barca. Pick up memorabilia in the bright red and blue colours of the home team. Situated in the football museum next to Camp Nou, it also has branches all over town.
