A children's birthday party for 15 kids in Catalonia costs a median of about €220, and half of the venues with a public price fall between €113 and €275. These figures come from cumplalia.es, which lists 372 venues; 242 of them publish a price on their own website. Below is the breakdown by province, type of venue and setting, with the method in plain view.
Method: where the numbers come from
Each venue in the catalogue publishes one or more rates on its website. From these we calculate an indicative party total for 15 children (in euros, with VAT as stated on the venue's site). Only venues with a public price are included: 242 of 372. The data is dated 23 October 2026.
- Prices are indicative: they vary with the day, the season, the real number of children and extras.
- Venues that only quote on request are not in the calculation; they may be pricier or more bespoke.
- Groups with few venues (under 5) are a rough guide, not solid statistics.
- We take no commission from venues, either for being listed or for ranking better.
Always confirm the current rate with the venue before booking. More on how we work in how the site works.
The overall result for 15 children
| All venues | Venues | Min | Median | Max | Typical range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Catalonia | 242 | €25 | €220 | €675 | €113–275 |
The range runs from €25 to €675, but the extremes are isolated cases. The useful part is the middle: the median (€220) and the interquartile range (€113–275). Put differently, one venue in four costs €113 or less and another one in four costs €275 or more.
Price by province
| Province | Venues | Min | Median | Max | Typical range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Barcelona | 169 | €25 | €203 | €495 | €100–270 |
| Girona | 31 | €119 | €225 | €360 | €180–285 |
| Lleida | 15 | €90 | €250 | €675 | €195–300 |
| Tarragona | 27 | €60 | €240 | €525 | €150–300 |
Barcelona has by far the most venues (169) and the lowest median (€203), partly because of the number of cheaper play centres and kids' clubs. Lleida (€250) and Tarragona (€240) have slightly higher medians, with Girona (€225) in between. With few venues per province (15 in Lleida), a gap of €20–40 should not be read as a hard truth. If you are in Girona, see the province listings or those for the city; for the capital, Barcelona.
Among cities with 10 or more priced venues, Terrassa has the lowest median (€100) and Barcelona and Lleida the highest (€250 each). Mataró (€200), Reus (€180) and Sabadell (€240) sit in the middle.

Indoor or outdoor
| Setting | Venues | Min | Median | Max | Typical range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Indoor | 170 | €25 | €184 | €675 | €100–255 |
| Outdoor | 52 | €94 | €255 | €450 | €225–300 |
| Both | 20 | €36 | €270 | €675 | €240–345 |
Indoor venues are cheaper (€184) than outdoor ones (€255) and mixed ones (€270). The full catalogue has 246 indoor venues, 100 outdoor and 26 mixed. If rain worries you, look at covered options; if you want space, outdoor ones.
Cost per child, duration and minimum number of children
- Price per child: median €18 (typical range €15–22; minimum €7, maximum €57), across 231 venues.
- Duration: median 120 minutes (90 to 150 minutes), across 254 rates.
- Minimum children to book: median 8; at three venues in four it is 10 or fewer (191 venues with data).
What the price usually includes
Across the catalogue: a private room at 59% of venues, a snack at 45%, an entertainer at 28%, drinks at 26%, equipment at 25% and a cake at 17%. Invitations (6%), photos (5%), insurance (3%) and face painting (2%) are uncommon. So two parties with the same price may not be comparable: check what each includes. If you want a room of your own, look at venues with a private room.
What it means for parents
- Budget around €200–250 for 15 children; above €275 you are in the priciest quarter.
- If money is tight, start with cheap birthday parties and with play centres and kids' clubs.
- Always compare what is included: snack, cake and room add up.
- Check the minimum number of children: with 8 or 10 kids you may pay for fewer places. For larger parties, see large groups.
- Ask for the price on your exact date: weekends and peak season often cost more.
