The Event

The Event

Witness world-class tennis at the ATP 500 Barcelona Open.

As part of your trip, you’ll attend the Quarter Finals of the Men’s Barcelona Open – one of the most exciting stages of the tournament, where top players battle it out on the iconic red clay.

Rafael Nadal has claimed a record-breaking 12 titles here, and the event continues to attract the biggest stars in the game. Expect thrilling rallies, fierce competition, and an electric atmosphere in the stands.

It’s a unique chance to see elite clay court tennis up close, in a stunning setting – a true highlight of the trip.

Where do we stay?

Relax in style at the AC Hotel Victoria Suites by Marriott.

Our base for the trip is the AC Hotel Victoria Suites, a stylish and spacious hotel rated ‘Very Good’ on TripAdvisor – and for good reason. It’s perfectly located for exploring Barcelona and provides a comfortable retreat after a day of tennis and sightseeing.

Expect generously sized rooms, excellent facilities, and the quality you’d expect from a Marriott property. While the hotel doesn’t have a pool, our itinerary is so full of exciting activities you likely won’t miss it!

It’s the ideal spot to unwind, recharge, and enjoy everything this unforgettable tennis break has to offer.

How do we get around?

Getting around Barcelona is easy – and all taken care of for you.

We use a mix of public transport, taxis and walking to explore this vibrant city. From the hotel to the tournament and everywhere in between, we’ve carefully planned the itinerary to keep travel simple and efficient.

Where possible, we’ve positioned activities close together to minimise travel time and costs, so you can focus on enjoying the experience – not worrying about logistics.

Leave the planning to us – just bring your love of tennis and a sense of adventure.
