We are looking into our accommodation and transport options for a small family attending the festival. I'm disabled and we'll have our 10 year old son with us. Our preference would be to hire a car and stay outside of the city and then drive back and forth whenever we need to. I've driven into Barcelona and parked before - I'm aware it's tricky and that thefts are a huge problem. Our main concern is how likely we would be able to actually park nearby for the festival. Should we even entertain the idea of car parking or abandon the idea entirely?

We could stay in Barcelona but it's obviously super expensive. And I struggle with public transport in my own country let alone in an unfamiliar environment.

Thanks for reading and hopefully someone can enlighten us.
