La nit dels museus 2025
By Charlotte Stace
One of the city’s favourite nights, La Nit dels Museus, returns this May. Offering late-night access to 95 museums and cultural spots from 7pm to 1am, you’ll be able to check out the latest exhibitions and catch guided tours. And the best bit? It’s free!
New institutions taking part this year include Casa Batlló, the Museu de les Aigües, and the Museu de Matemàtiques de Catalunya (MMACA). Heritage spaces, temporary exhibitions and permanent collections coexist during this unusual evening with activities for all ages. In addition, there will be concerts, recitals and poetry, dance and theatre shows. This year, the event coincides with International Museum Day, so there’ll be a series of cultural offerings throughout the day as well.
This initiative was launched in 1997 in Berlin and has since spread to thousands of museums and cities around the world. It’s organised by the Council of Europe and aims to raise awareness on the importance of museums to the development of society.
