Transport From Barcelona Airport To Gran Via Fira Exhibition Centre?

Q: Do any buses or trains go from Barcelona airport - (El Prat Llobregat Aeropuerto) to Gran Via Exhibition Centre please?

A: First of all, it is important to know that there are two different venues of the Fira de Barcelona's exhibition centre close to each other in the Montjuïc area. One is the Gran Via Venue, the other one the Montjuïc Venue. There are also other Fira centres around Barcelona, therefore, it is important you are clear on the Fira centre you are going to.

From the airport, there is currently no direct transfer to reach the Gran Via exhibition centre by public transport. For some trade fairs the Fira Barcelona offers a free of charge bus service leaving from the airport, but not for all of them.
