March in Barcelona 2024
What’s Barcelona like in March?
With Easter Week (Semana Santa) falling in March this year, expect to find A LOT more people in the city towards the end of the month. As the temperatures start to heat up and the city starts to show its colors, the end of the month brings spring back out and March is a beautiful time of the year to come visit Barcelona. There are quite a few more Saint celebrations (some Catalan and some not...) and awesome activites like the Barcelona Beer Festival. Remember March is still low-season for Barcelona, so there aren't typically as many people in the city, but Barcelona is extremely popular so there is always somewhat of a crowd. But this year, you'll definitely find the last week to be the busiest.

What’s the weather like in March?
Check the weather before you come, but even if you see warmer temperatures than you’re used to at home, locals won’t be dressing for the weather, but for the season. March tends to be when the temperatures start picking up again and by the end of the month we should be seeing some really nice weather, maybe even hitting the 70s (20 Celcius). The good news is it does too rain much at all. You can be outside all day with average highs around 60 Fahrenheit (~15 Celsius)and average lows being around 50 Fahrenheit (10 Celsius). Remember that while midday is always nice, the mornings and evenings are chillier, so you want to wear layers.
