Gran Teatre del Liceu Tours
7 Reviews

Since its opening on La Rambla in 1847, the Gran Teatre del Liceu has been a cultural, artistic, and political hub for Catalonia, as well as one of the most impressive opera houses in all of Europe. After several bouts of fire, the theater was completely restored in 1999, complete with new technology to put on modern productions.
The Basics
The Gran Teatre del Liceu has seating for some 2,300 spectators, but you don’t have to come for an opera to appreciate the grand building. Guided tours lead through some of its most impressive areas, including the grand foyer and Hall of Mirrors, both of which survived fire; the main auditorium; and El Círculo del Liceo, one of Spain’s oldest social clubs, decorated with a collection of modernista art. Those who want to learn more about the surrounding neighborhood—bohemian Raval—can take a guided walking tour that includes the opera house, along with several other local haunts.
Things to Know Before You Go
When to Get There
The opera stages performances throughout the year, so check the calendar before your visit if you want to see a show. Theater tours are offered daily throughout the year.
Performing Arts in Barcelona
Barcelona is blessed with many excellent venues for the performing arts. Visitors can see theater and classical music at the National Theater of Catalonia (Teatre Nacional de Catalunya), as well as the architecturally impressive Palace of Catalan Music (Palau de la Música Catalana) and the minimalist Barcelona Auditorium (L’Auditori de Barcelona). Several more-intimate venues specialize in live flamenco.
