From zoobarcelona.cat and aquariumbcn.com, checked on 12 October 2026. There is no official combined Zoo and Aquarium ticket.
Zoo de Barcelona
The Zoo is open every day of the year and only closes in the afternoon on Christmas Day. On the day we checked it opened 10:00–18:00 with last entry at 17:00; it publishes the current day's hours on its home page. Large-family and single-parent cards get 20% off at the ticket office, and visitors with functional diversity pay €6 with a free companion.
L'Aquàrium
The Aquarium is also open every day, with last entry an hour before closing: 10:00–20:00 until 1 November, then 10:00–19:00 on weekdays and 10:00–20:00 at weekends from 2 November to 24 December, and 10:00–20:00 from 25 to 31 December. Hours for 2027 are not published yet.
