The moonlight on the 31st of October always hits differently, so if you suspect you might be undergoing a transformation into a werewolf, we’d recommend staying at home. However, if you’re not experiencing any supernatural changes, a long weekend like Halloween’s is the perfect time to dance the night away. We understand that choosing the right venue for a special occasion like this can be daunting, especially with the multitude of events embracing the spooky atmosphere. To help you navigate the options, here are some of our top picks if you plan to celebrate Halloween in Spain in cities such as Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Mallorca and more!
