I was mesmerized. I thought the fountains were one of the most beautiful things I had ever experienced. The music is Mozart to Queen and everything in between. Truly not to be missed. More

we were warned to get to the fountain 30mins before the show started to be able to sit on the steps in front. I was surprised at just how large this fountain was, and enjoyed the show with accompanying lights and music very much! this was much better than I had expected and is particularly good on a balmy night More

We were told this fountain becomes active only a few days (evenings) during the year. I consider myself lucky to be there during one of these days. The one-hour water show run by computers is unbelievable. Find information about the time you can see its water show and bring your video camera. Must not miss it. More

An easy metro trip to get there but it was closed for repairs so it kinda messed with our evening. Check status before you make the trip More

I'd been to Barcelona so many times before, and never bothered to go to see this. And boy, have I missed out! The fountains are stunning, and the light and music show really is something else. More

This is our third time viewing the Magic Fountain and it never leaves us down. Go there early to get a good view of it. The music going along with the water movements is amazing. More
