Tibidabo is an emblematic location in the city of Barcelona since it is the highest point of the city and because it exists in everyone's memory as a leisure reference.
We like to say that Tibidabo is a family amusement park, not just because family visits have been and continue to be traditional, but also because all people, whatever their age, will find attractions to suit them.
As an amusement park, Tibidabo has an offer that combines virtually all the different types of key attractions within the sector, some of which are far from being state of the art models, while others far exceed what is on offer in other parks within our sector in terms of quality, age and originality.
