From: Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport (BCN), commonly known as El Prat

This online tourist guide will provide you all the various options available for traveling from the airport into city center as well as instructions how to purchase tickets.

Spanish/English translation will be provided on stage during the general sessions

During the workshops there will be no translation up front but participants are welcome to translate for friends in a small group in the back of the classroom.

Many phone apps are now available to assist with translation. One app that was recommended to us is LIVEVOICE. You can click on the link for the website for additional information. Participants are responsible for bringing their own phones and headphones. This option would be ideal if you come with a group in need of translation. It will help keep disruption down and allow everyone to hear better without crowding around the translator.

No tours will be provided. Plan to come a day early or stay over a day to enjoy the beautiful city of Barcelona or step out of Barcelona to explore the beauty of Spain.

This Tourist Guide will provide information on various sites to visit during your stay in Barcelona and ideas to plan your stay.
