The LGBTQ+ shops in Barcelona are mostly concentrated in Gaixample, on and around Carrer del Consell de Cent and Carrer de Casanova. The cluster is small enough to browse on foot in an hour: sex shops, fetish gear, underwear and swimwear brands, and a couple of more general gay lifestyle stores.


Opening hours are typically 11am–9pm Monday to Saturday, with reduced hours on Sunday. Some of the sex shops stay open later. In summer, many shops take a siesta break from around 2–5pm. Check before you make a special trip.
