Tibidabo Amusement Park

Updated Aug 28 2023

Tibidabo Amusement Park was built in 1899 thanks to the financial support of Salvador Andreu i Grau, a pharmaceutical businessman and property developer. The amusement park opened in 1905, so it’s a true institution in Barcelona, having been in operation for over 100 years.

Visit the Park free of charge


Access to the vast majority of the grounds of the theme park is actually free, so if you have already taken the trouble to go to the top of Tibidabo Mountain, we recommend that you have a look round the park, taking in the magic it has to offer, even if you’re not planning on going on any of the rides.

In doing this you’ll be able to take some great photos of the grounds, and of the views that you’ll see from the viewpoint in the Camí del Cel (literally ‘Walk to the Sky’) area.

All the information about Tibidabo Amusement Park in Barcelona

Situated almost at the top of Mount Tibidabo at an altitude of 500 metres above sea level, the amusement park is next to the Temple of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and very close to the Torre de Collserola.

It has over 25 rides that are enjoyed by children, young people and adults alike, whether they are locals or tourists, all of whom keen to enjoy a fun day out in an idyllic location.

The rides of the Tibidabo theme park

Just like in all amusement parks, Tibidabo has rides for people of all ages, and most of them are aimed at children and the younger visitors. As it’s situated at the top of the Tibidabo Mountain, the rides are situated at various levels so there are a few hidden spots within the complex.

Atalaya and Giridabo

We therefore recommend that you keep hold of them map that you’ll be given when you buy the tickets, and refer to it in order to go to everything on your list.

Atalaya
Almost 100 years old, Atalaya is one of the classic rides in the park, so it’s almost compulsory to have a go, although note that it’s not suitable for those who suffer from vertigo.

The Aeroplane
Built in 1928, it’s the true icon of the amusement park, and although it’s aimed at children the older visitors are just as excited (if not more!) when the plane flies over the park.

Museum of Mechanical Figures
Housing more than 40 19th and 20th century mechanical figures, this traditional museum is one of the most popular attractions in the park. If you’re in the area with children, a visit to the museum is a must.

Miramiralls
Roughly translating as ‘look at the mirrors’, this is a hall of mirrors in which each mirror shows your reflection in a different form with different effects. If you’re after some fun and a bit of a giggle, this is definitely for you!

Diávolo (The Devil)
The carousel of swings gives you the feeling that you’re flying. Although when it’s stationary it looks like a ride for the youngest visitors only, the sensation as you get higher and faster is something that everyone will enjoy.

the Roller Coaster
No good amusement park is complete without a roller coaster, and Tibidabo is no exception. Although it might not be as spectacular as those in some other parks, you’ll still have a great ride!

Giradabo
Tibidabo’s new and striking Big Wheel, Giradabo, fills the theme park with colour with its bright cabins, and offers wonderful views of the city.

Where to eat?

There are various places to eat within the grounds of the park, but as is usually the case with places of this nature, they usually serve fast food and it can be rather expensive. There’s also a bar and restaurant in the square just outside the park, and these options are probably the best if you’re going to be there all day.

If on the other hand you’re only going for the morning or the afternoon and you’d like to eat nearby, we recommend one of the bars around Vallvidrera (for example the Casa Trampa restaurant).
