Planning your visit

Moco Barcelona puts street art and contemporary work inside a sixteenth-century palace — the Palau Cervelló in El Born — which is much of its appeal. The collection runs to over 100 works including Banksy, Warhol, Basquiat, Haring and Kusama, alongside digital and immersive installations that fill entire rooms. It is deliberately accessible rather than academic, and it draws a younger audience than Barcelona's traditional museums.

Because Moco sits a few minutes' walk from the Picasso Museum in the same quarter, several bookable options combine the two with a walking tour of El Born. Other formats include skip-the-line small-group art tours, private guided tours, e-tickets bundled with a city audio guide, and street-art bike tours that take in Barcelona's outdoor murals before finishing at the museum. Hop-on hop-off bus tickets with museum entry are also available. Given the compact galleries, timed entry is worth having at weekends. Current options are shown below.
