Arenas de Barcelona is a unique project owned by MERLIN Properties. It transformed a former bullring that had been closed for more than ten years into one of the city’s iconic shopping centres. Arenas de Barcelona is conveniently located in Plaça Espanya, close to some of Barcelona’s most popular museums and one of the city’s busiest thoroughfares. It is just a five-minute walk from the Fira de Barcelona trade fair site – which attracts 2.5 million visitors every year – and caters to all your shopping and leisure needs under one roof.

The opening of the new visitor experience, Ikono, invites visitors of all ages to immerse themselves in thrilling environments and interactive installations that take them on an amazing journey. Arenes also has a twelve-screen multiplex showing the best new films, as well as a great choice of rooftop restaurants, 27 metres above the ground, surrounded by an outdoor observation deck that boasts 360º views of the city. There are two metro lines and suburban rail services nearby, meaning that it is easy to get to.
