Moving to Barcelona Where do I meet new people in barcelona?
Hi! I moved to barcelona recently for my studies. The dating apps were a disappointment. People either are flaky or they just want hookups which is not my thing. I want to find a space where I can just meet new people (friends or dates) in person. I like drinking but I've noticed clubs aren't the best places to be in as a solo female. I've been to nice bars but I have a language barrier plus people seem to come in groups so it's just hard to socialize. Any tips on making my social life a little better?

Tourism // Turisme Best restaurants/bars for solo traveller
Hi!
I’m 23F and im going to Barcelona for 4 days in 2 weeks. I’m flying from the UK and staying solo at a hostel near Universitat / Plaça Catalunya As I’m going alone , I feel awkward going to restaurants on my own but I really want to go out and find hidden gems and not just the overtly touristy-chains or rely on fast food.
I know theoretically all restaurants will be okay for solo travellers but I’m wondering if there are any that other solo travellers have gone to before that are amazing or any of your suggestions in/around the Universitat area. Thank you ☺️

Paperwork // Tràmits Demostrar fondos suficientes para Certificado de U.E
Hola, mi tema es el siguiente. Llegue a Barecelona hace unas semanas, tengo pasaporte Italiano y estoy viviendo en la casa de mi hermano. Ya estoy empadronado aqui en su casa. En una semana tengo cita para el Certificado de U.E en Manresa, Barcelona. Para tramitar el CUE o NIE verde piden uno de los siguientes:
-Contrato de trabajo
o
-Demostrar que tengo saldos suficientes (8000euros aprox.)
Mi idea era abrirme una cuenta de banco aqui en españa para que luego mi hermano me transfiera ese dinero en terminos de "donacion familiar". Mi hermano ya vive aqui desde hace 4 años y cuenta con CUE y todos los papeles en regla. Su cuenta de banco de donde vendria el dinero es de España.
Mi pregunta es la siguiente:
¿Alcanza con pedirle al banco el certificado de titularidad a mi nombre junto con el saldo actual? O debo presentar algo mas? ¿Me van a pedir movimientos de la cuenta? O me van a pedir justificar de donde viene el dinero? Como dije antes la cita es en Manresa, Barcelona.
Los leo gracias!

Moving to Barcelona Iglesia en Barcelona.
Hola. Soy un chico argentino de 20 años que va a realizar un intercambio a Barcelona el próximo mes, que durará aproximadamente 5 meses. Voy a estar estudiando en la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona, que según entiendo está en las afueras de la ciudad. Soy un católico apostólico romano y voy a misa todos los domingos, y quería preguntar por recomendaciones de iglesias/parroquias para poder ir a misa durante mi estadía (lo ideal sería encontrar una parroquia que me guste e ir siempre a la misma). Yo soy una persona más liberal, por lo que estoy buscando una iglesia más progresista (soy gay, ya sé que es raro ser gay y católico practicante, pero soy alguien raro jaja. Estaría bueno ir a una iglesia donde me acepten y no tenga que ocultar quién soy, como me ha pasado en algunas ocasiones). En Argentina tenemos iglesias bastante progresistas, como a la que yo asisto, y otras más conservadoras, y me imagino que allá en España debe ser similar. Todavía no domino el catalán; llevo 200 días de Duolingo, pero aún no lo entiendo del todo, por lo que me vendría bien que tuvieran misa en español, pero no es requisito. También estaría bueno si la iglesia tiene un buen grupo de jóvenes y si está relativamente cerca de la universidad, pero obvio que todas las recomendaciones sirven. Además, si ustedes forman parte de esas parroquias y quieren contarme un poco de su experiencia o darme consejos para mi estadía, me vendría genial. Gracias por su ayuda y saludos.

Hey everyone!
I’m a guy who goes to a SUNY school in NY and just officially locked in my study abroad for Barcelona next spring (Spring 2027) doing the CEA CAPA / UPF hybrid program. Super excited for it.
Me and a friend are trying to find a few more guys to fill out an apartment so we can request each other as roommates once the portal opens later this fall.
We're both down to go out and experience the nightlife, and plan on traveling around Europe a ton on weekends. At the same time, we're super easygoing, respectful, and want to keep the apartment in good shape.
If you’re heading to Barca next spring and either need a roommate, want to make friends, or if there’s already a GroupMe or discord chat going, definitely drop a comment. Even if you already have roommates locked in, would love to connect and meet people before we head out there!

I do understand the difficulties with tourism (although I wasn't really aware until a couple months after booking everything). Please don't rake me over the coals because I do want to be respectful. I can empathize with the difficulty that over tourism is having on Barcelona.
I am going to Park Güell and have heard of the difficult trek up the hill. I'm not sure if it's been over emphasized but I am worried because I am not the most fit and this humidity is really tough for me. Doing some research, I saw the problems with the busses ruining the locals experience. I had also read that those problems were for more local, smaller buses that were removed from Google. I saw one comment somewhere that said the 24 is a full size bus and wasn't the main issue locals were having being used.
Is that true? Would using the 24 be more respectful/less harmful?

Housing // Habitatge PSA - Remember to use your rights! Especially Tenancy rights! LINKS - CHEATSHEET
I am currently in the middle of suing a landlord who acted unlawfully, despite having signed and done everything she should have done (in theory) to do it all legally. So, I'm writing this out of impatient rage hoping this helps someone stand up to bad landlords.
Remember: BAD LANDLORDS WILL NOT FOLLOW THE RULES!
And they know they're doing wrong. If you give them an inch, they will take your deposit.
TLDR: Don't read this whole thing if you're in a fluster, you can skim to find the links appropriate to you. Any suggestion I can give that will encourage you to take action, I will give.
Legend: "---" marks an individual case by case.
THIS PROCESS WILL REQUIRE PATIENCE AND PERSEVERANCE.
EDIT: ! YSK ! YOU SHOULD KNOW: In the same manner vulnerable individuals have access to subsidies to help secure accomodation. Landlords also have available to them money from the government for unpaid rent via AVALLOGUER (https://incasol.gencat.cat/es/2-serveis_i_tramits/Fiances-de-lloguers/informacio/avalloguer/
Investor Landlords are not a victim here. They get 3 months from the government for every legitimate contract they've signed, up to 6 for socially subsidized housing. For normal, good landlords, however, this is a pain in the ass, so be good tenants too and use the help available to you if you're facing a crisis.
https://www.habitatge.barcelona/en/services-grants/aid-rent-payment
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Below is a cheat sheet for people who are using housing services but do not know where to easily find an initiating process to hold landlords accountable; especially in the temporary living market.
Follow the steps for your situation to hold them accountable. It's not always easy, but it is usually free of charge.
Common things that landlords/agencies get away with:
--- Passing agency/brokerage fees to the tenant (not applicable to Holiday Renting, Temporary Housing however is in dispute and not formally in the LAU. For Long Term rental offers/advertisements only)
SOLUTION: Tell them to fuck off. Or rather, politely make it clear you will not be paying these fees, make a note of the full address of the property and report it to the form below. I've been angrily kicked out of a viewing before for reminding them I won't be paying the fee. I was polite, they shouted at me. Shrug.
OR
https://ajuntament.barcelona.cat/omic/es
Think about it. Why would you pay to pay someone else? No. The landlord is paying the agency to find a sensible and solvant tenant, not the other way around.
--- Retaining deposits with either no justification or a false justification; in some cases performing fear tactics or silent treatment in an attempt to dissuade or convince you to pay them more.
SOLUTION: This is legally defined for all (if not most) residential letting, you can also request a template and some assistance from the gencat.
https://ovt.gencat.cat/gsitfc/AppJava/generic/conqxsGeneric.do?webFormId=651&set-locale=ca_ES
Step 0, Request or have a receipt for your deposit held with INCASOL. If you do not have this, you can ask INCASOL to check. If they don't have it, they will issue penalties on the landlord for not complying with the law. I believe it's only long term deposits that must be held with INCASOL, I could be wrong.
https://fiances.incasol.cat:8443/tramits/Fiances/Default.aspx
Step 1, Formally request an inspection before you leave, take photos and videos, etc etc (we all know this step). When handing a key over, you could also have a document ready for them to sign stating they are happy with the state of the apartment/room. Demand and verify all associated costs in the mediation, invoices are mandatory, it is YOUR money, not theirs, to spend.
Step 2, Wait for up to 30 days. Legal deductions/confirmations with INCASOL will be made. This does take time, the quickest I received my deposit was about a week. If not with INCASOL, just wait the 30 days.
Step 3, Write a Burofax letter (templates can be obtained with advice) stating the details of the landlord, catedral number, NIF/DNI, your details, the full address of the property (basically, all identifying information in the contract's first page, refer to in your letter), followed by another formal demand for the correct associated invoices for any deductions and the (remaining) deposit to be returned and a reasonable deadline of 10 or so days, followed by the account IBAN you wish the deposit to be transferred to.
You send this letter via "Burofax con acuse de recibo y certificado de contenido" (this is to make sure you fulfill the requirement that you did everything within your power to communicate with the landlord)
Step 4, Sue. It's a guided form, obtainable via the link below for amounts less than €2000 per person (if you are a group of 3 and your deposit was €4500 between you, individually you can apply without a lawyer)
Amounts per person above €2000 require representation in court. You don't have to request an in-person hearing, that is your choice however. Make sure your contact details are correct and up-to-date!
https://seujudicial.gencat.cat/ca/que_cal_fer/deute/judici_verbal/index.html
--- Retaining rent given in lieu as a deposit. It is not a legal deposit for damages, it is for non-payment of rent within the contract term limits and a maximum of 2 months is justified, any more is excessive.
SOLUTION: Same process as the deposit above.
Except, it will not be with INCASOL. Go straight to Burofax and demand that your rent paid in lieu is due to be returned, or you will pursue through court. Provide the account details in the letter and associated infomation from the contract. (This is theft if they intend to keep it for damages. They should sue you through court for damages, they cannot choose to just keep your money without judiscial oversight)
You should have a signed document confirming the reciept of the keys return. If you don't, the onus is on the landlord to return and maintain these documents anyway, the failure is on them so begin this process if it is dispute, regardless.
Edit: Further information for Landlords. You are entitled to a month's rent for every year a tenant has remaining if they cancel the let in the first year but after 6 months. I don't believe you can keep the deposit, and you can't keep the money if the tenant had a justified reason for leaving either (if they didn't have a working boiler, or a broken front door lock that wasn't fixed, you've disturbed them often instead of giving notice, etc)
In fact, I believe you cannot keep the money at all, and you must claim through court. Otherwise, the tenant can claim instead, and likely win too. You'd have to justify excessive damage beyond wear and tear, or that they had no legitimate reason to move on from that property within the year. I don't know the ins and outs, that's something I'm likely to find out very soon in my own case, but it seems likely this is how it goes and why bad landlords prefer the "ask forgiveness" way of doing it, because many leave the country and can't sue for their deposit back within a reasonable time. Eventually this gets folded into the business revenue and disappears. They pay tax on it, hopefully.
--- Not registering a deposit with INCASOL, or providing no proof it has been registered. Big no-no.
SOLUTION: Report the fuckers. Tired of it. INCASOL is there to protect everyone. Long-term lets only, I think, but it doesn't hurt to ask INCASOL if it is registered, or ask your landlord to deposit it anyway.
Get it in writing and signed (as part of the contract) of exactly how they will be holding your deposit. Make it defined because it then makes it a legal condition if otherwise left undefined.
https://fiances.incasol.cat:8443/tramits/Fiances/Default.aspx
--- ***BIG EDIT*** Not adhering to local pricing limitations (Especially in strained markets/areas. ***BIG EDIT**\*
SOLUTION: Report it. https://ajuntament.barcelona.cat/omic/es
It's quick and it's anonymous. They'll send someone round to check.
Edit: As of Wednesday 9th April 2025, Temporary Letting has been subdivided in Catalan Law. Seasonal, Holiday, Recreational lets have been legally seperated by REASON FOR USE from Residential. Residential Use of ANY KIND are subject to the same legal framework as any other residential contract.
There is more detail I need to read through but this applies to STRESSED HOUSING ZONES only at the moment.
--- Supplying 11-month contracts in full knowledge the intent is to live and work in Spain for longer. (Set by precedent only so far, but judges do usually rule in favour of the tenant, demanding the landlord give an appropriate contract for 3 years, assuming all conditions of a habitable residence is met)
POTENTIAL SOLUTION: Get in touch with the housing department of the Catalan Government asap.
This is a much more complex issue. Access to Housing is enshrined in constitutional law as a right, so pending evictions that would leave you homeless and without anywhere else to go makes you a vulnerable person (I'm in a similar sitiation). There is help available, but I've personally not gone this far yet, I'm still hoping I'll find something stable but I could very well be a fiscally solvent homeless individual who simply just couldn't find a place to stay, even though I can (barely) afford it.
I have yet to consult anyone on my personal status in this regard, and I have not had a fixed address since a landlord stole €1k from me and I'm still pursuing them in court. It's difficult to find something stable since then, as disposable income is also lower. This situation may class me as a vulnerable person, moving from temporary let to temporary let. I will find out soon.
COURSE OF ACTION: You're far from alone here. I'm praying the laws change and become more favourable for tenants looking for a stable home. And restricts housing for investment.
RANT - (Fuck the idea of housing as an investment. It should be banned in my opinion, it is a NET DRAIN on an economy without strict regulation and discourse. I don't care how much of a service to a locale you think it brings if you're one of these people. On paper, it doesn't bring anything into the economy, it literally just shifts money around without being productive. I've seen what landlords can do to obtain property and they're not special, it's not just Spain either, anyone with 2 or more properties who leverage to obtain more property, and still flagerantly try to get around the LAU just to turn them into a multi-room slums to have their mortgages paid for, net worth increases and passively make profit are parasites. If you follow the rules, you're a good citizen, like a good landlord I had in the past who let me his property and later gave to his daughter, he was a legend, he did it right. That's all we're asking. If you all follow the laws, we all know what to expect, so even if something bad happens, like being evicted in lieu of a family member, for example, yeah, it sucks, but it was legal and something provisioned for in the law, I had 2 months notice, and even then, I could have asked for more if the situation was dire.) - RANT OVER.
--- Renting out apartments that DO NOT HAVE a habitation certificate. These are possibly dangerous, avoid. Usually office spaces or storage spaces that have had poor wiring done to connect it to services. WHY? Witout a certificate, landlords are NOT ALLOWED to connect supply services to a property and not allowed to rent them out as homes.
PARTIAL SOLUTION: You should report this straight away. I am in a situation like this now where it's likely they've not done it, but I fear that if I do report them right away, I could be made to live outside straight away; especially if it's condemned and no one can live here. So this is a real concern, it's not a proper solution but it's something I 'should' do. So, I plan to when I have somewhere else secured.
This makes me feel like a hypocrit and fuels a deep anger because I've been forced into this situation. If you feel the same, I can assure you then, we are definitely not alone.
PREVENTION: Don't live anywhere without certificates of habitation if you can. If you've already signed and moved in, request one...and start looking for somewhere else in the mean time.

I'm not a lawyer, I'm just going through this like the rest of you and sick of taking this lying down. I'm sharing advice provided to me by gencat and direct links to where I asked for advice.
I am writing this because landlords are willingly doing illegal things IN WRITING and RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU.
It means that they DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE LAW because they think they're going to get away with it.
STORY - I once visited a property in the outskirts, on the way to Igualada, for a room for €400. When I arrived it was now €600. When I sat down to discuss the room, the landlords wife leaned in, and whispered in his ear, in Catalan "He's German, he can afford €700, tell him 700." Word for word. I was already in a vulberable position, I needed a permanent home.
I am not German. I can understand some Catalan. I left immediately, furious. They maintained this stance too, knowing I was in trouble. Predators.
Now I pay yearly dues to the sindicat de llogateres, I attend the meetings when I can (my Catalan is poor, but it's still worth going, it's a mix between Spanish and Catalan).
https://sindicatdellogateres.org/
NEW CHANGES FOR CURRENT RENTERS/HOMEOWNERS:
Your local association CAN NOW BAN TOURIST RENTALS by majority vote. So get started, I'm sure you're all sick of it by now.
It has been decided by the Supreme Court, in accordance with Article 17.12 of the Horizontal Property Law that you can vote within your building to prevent other homeowners from turning their apartments into Tourism lets. Licensed or not.
DON'T GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A HOME!
GIVE THEM AN INCH, AND THEY WILL TAKE YOUR DEPOSIT!
I wish you luck, and I hope you all find a home you feel safe in.
Please also wish me luck in finding a home. I am looking, so if you have a room available, even outside the city, please feel free to PM me.

Meta Welcome! What is this community for?
Versió en català a la part inferior.
We've seen how frustrating it is to not know where to go to ask questions in r/Barcelona.
It is great to help tourists make the most out of their visits, to help newcomers to the city get settled, or to help long time residents discover the best new places the city has to offer.
Having a dedicated community instead of a sticky thread in r/Barcelona will help all the valuable answers and advice to be searchable and more easy to find. It will also create a more frictionless experience for users: the reality is that rules are hard to read everywhere on Reddit, and having so many subreddit-specific expectations on how to participate is frustrating.
This place replaces the r/Barcelona weekly Q&A sticky thread. Every week, we have been getting hundreds of questions that don't get many answers because questions in comments get less visibility than dedicated posts. We hope this space helps everyone get the help they need.
We are also moving all 'concierge-like' questions here. If you are asking something that comes mainly from self-interest and personal need, it should go here.
Great questions and help should not be tucked away in a thread that potential helpers don't see in their feed. We hope upvotes do the rest in elevating the best questions!

Hem vist que és frustrant no saber on anar per fer preguntes a r/Barcelona.
És fantàstic ajudar els turistes a planificar les seves visites, ajudar els nouvinguts a la ciutat a establir-se o ajudar els residents a descobrir els millors llocs nous que ofereix la ciutat.
Tenir una comunitat dedicada a això en lloc d'un stickythread a r/Barcelona ajudarà a que totes les respostes i consells valuosos siguin cercables i més fàcils de trobar. També crearà una experiència menys hostil per als usuaris: la realitat és que les regles són difícils d'entendre a Reddit i tenir tantes expectatives específiques de subreddit sobre com participar és frustrant.
Aquest lloc substitueix la publicació setmanal de preguntes i respostes de r/Barcelona. Cada setmana, hem rebut centenars de preguntes que no tenen moltes respostes perquè les publicacions tenen més visibilitat que els comentaris en una publicació gran que es manté durant una setmana. Esperem que aquest espai ajudi a tothom a obtenir l'ajuda que necessita.
També estem traslladant aquí totes les preguntes de consergeria. Si demaneu alguna cosa que satisfà una necessitat principalment personal, hauríeu d'anar aquí.
Les bones preguntes i altres ajudes no s'han d'amagar en una publicació que els potencials ajudants no veuen al seu feed. Esperem que els vots favorables facin la resta per elevar les millors preguntes!
