Extra things to do during your stay (Barcelona tours)

When you are here in Barcelona for a game at the Nou Camp, you might also want to try some other events also to make the most of your time. Apart from seeing a game at the Nou Camp and also from doing the stadium tour, my favourite things to do are:

1. Bar hopping tour - there are several groups who organise this kind of event and it is a great chance to meet others and to get to know the best city bars.
   
2. City bicycle tour - Seeing Barcelona as part of a bicycle tour is a classic way to see the city. The tour is at a slow enough pace such that even beginner cyclists can pretty much keep up.
   
3. Wine and dine cruise - Normally taking place in the evenings, this type of cruise makes a great combo when it comes to food and drink.

There are several companies in Barcelona who organise these types of tours. Barcelona Adventure are one of the leading companies and perhaps a good starting point.

Barcelona FC Round up - 2010 and cruising

With two big wins in La Liga in the last 2 weeks, Barcelona have once again taken the initative at the top of La Liga. Before Christmas, it looked as though Real Madrid might take the lead but a victory for Barcelona over their arch rivals has left Barca in the driving seat.

The coming months should be interesting with the Champions League two leg ties and Barca away to VfB Stuttgart in the first game on 23rd February.

In the league, the next home page is 7th Feb at home to Getafe - a game Barcelone would expect to win.

Is the snow affecting Football games in Barcelona

It has certainly been colder than usual here in Barcelona and there has been snow on the mountains outside of Barcelona and Andorra certainly has had soem good skiing in the last few weeks.

Here in Barcelona it has pretty much been business as usual in terms of football. I mention this because many enquiries have come in from Germany, Holland and the UK asking and that's understandable considering the snow falls around Europe.

No FC Barcelona or Espanyol games have been cancelled to date so if you can get to Barcelona or are already here and have bought tickets for a game, you should be fine.

Next game:Barcelona v Sevilla FC
16th January 2010.
A few Tickets are still available and bookable through the offical agent www.barcelonafootballtickets.com

FC Barcelona to Paris St Germain

The secret is out in the last few days as my Catalan friends have found out that in addition to FC Barcelona, I am also a big Paris St Germain. I spent a lot of time in Paris in my younger days and as a football fan I spent many a day going to Paris St Germain games. (Make sure by the way to stay with my friends from Paris apartments if you go there anytime).

PSG are they are known in short are no match for FC Barcelona but when in Paris i try and catch a game whenever I can. If Barcelona were ever to meet PSG then it is a tough choice.

FC Barcelona play again at the start of January and let us hope for another excellent season. Seasons greetings to all football fans.

Local league football in Barcelona

With a couple of weeks break until the first week of January for Barcelona in La Liga. just a quick posts to mention domestic football in Barcelona and how anyone interested in playing football can get involved.

The Barcelona International Football League is a league where all the ex-pats and Spanish get together and play in two leagues. A lot of pub sides and a few local companies and some teams made up of anyone who wants a game basically.

The level is pretty much the same as you would get at pub level in the UK and it is a great way to get out and fit in Barcelona. All games are outside and there is always a team looking for players. More on local league football in Barcelona.

Barcelona v Real Madrid 2009

The big game is only days away and with Barcelona only drawing last weekend and with Real Madrid winning, Real are back on top of La Liga. Barcelona though with a home win will regain the advantage.

Demand has been massive for the game and Barcelonafootballtickets.com are now sold out for the Barcelona v Real Madrid packages. You can still call a day or so before to see if any returns have come in just in case.

Home games with:

• Barcelona v Espanyol and
• Barcelona v Sevilla are still available right now though with a few tickets left.
