Pro tips
- Fira Barcelona's venue guide says metro L9 Sud stops at Fira and Europa/Fira, linking the Gran Via venue directly with Barcelona Airport; the metro runs 5 am to midnight, with uninterrupted weekend service.
- Regional FGC trains (S8, S33, R6, R5, S4) also stop at Europa/Fira, which gives an alternative to the metro if you are staying outside the centre.
- Taxi ranks are set up at the Fira Gran Via venue for arrivals and departures, and the venue page points to the AMB Taxi Barcelona app for approximate fares.
