Barcelona has a very big skate culture, even larger than Los Angeles. The city’s weather, architecture, and beach atmosphere make it a perfect place for people of all ages to try out their tricks and trade lessons.
A hot spot for skaters in this city is in El Raval right outside of the Barcelona Contemporary Art Museum (MACBA). This area is a large square with a ramp and steps outside of the museum, not your usual skate park! This spot attracts skaters of all ages and levels, you can find a 54 year old who’s been skating since middle school and a 20 year old just starting sharing tricks together. Famous skaters from around the world have even come to this spot to film videos, promotions with popular skating companies, and host hangouts with fans.
Skate culture in Barcelona extends past this neighborhood of El Raval too. There is a bar called “Nevermind” in the Gothic Quarter. This bar is all skate- themed, with art all over the walls, skateboarding playing on the TVs, and even a half pipe in the bar.
Skate culture in Barcelona is a great pass time for people who are really into skating, to people who just think the tricks are cool and envy the skaters doing them (like myself)!
