What's the weather like in Barcelona in September?
Barcelona in September is still very warm although there is chance of a shower or too. Although there is plenty to do indoors on those rainy days. If it get’s too hot there’s always the beach, the most famous being Barceloneta. We only had a couple of showers on our Barcelona break but ended up in the Mercado de La Boqueria drinking wine and eating, so not a bad afternoon.

What should I pack for a holiday in Barcelona in September?
In September, it can still get into the high twenties and it can feel hotter in the city centre so definitely shorts and t shirt weather. You may need a a light rain jacket as well if you want to carry on sightseeing during the showers. Something like a ‘Pac A Mac’ is perfect, now that term shows our age! Barcelona is very walkable so prepare to get those steps in. We did over 20000 steps on a couple of days.

What's great about Barcelona in September?
One of the highlights of our trip was an evening food tour. This helped introduce us to the culture and the etiquette of those little bars and restaurants you see the locals in. They often get the tourists to try the Catalan porrón, it’s a glass wine decanter which you drink from. Here’s a tip, try with water first before the red wine as it’s guaranteed to spill all over your face and shirt, definitely don’t wear white!
