Social program in Barcelona

Visiting the Park Güell... But the social and cultural program takes you to far more than just Barcelona's many famous monuments
IH Barcelona organises a varied programme of social activities for our Spanish students. These include "Welcome" parties, visits and excursions to places of interest in and around Barcelona (shown, above, visiting Gaudí's Park Güell), video films in Spanish, concerts by local musicians, and "exchange evenings" at which students can meet and talk with some of our other students who are learning English, French or German in the school.
We also take you out in the evening twice a month to experience some of Barcelona's unforgettable nightlife.
The social programme changes every two weeks so that if you are staying for longer periods you will not have to repeat specific activities. We give you a copy of the social programme planned for the following 2-week period when you arrive.
We also organise full-day excursions to towns and places of interest outside Barcelona. These excursions are organised twice a month during the summer months and once a month during the rest of the year.
Most of the activities are included in the course fee. However, entrance fees and transport costs (where appropriate) and not included.
