Play Point is located at Carrer de Comte Borel, 88.

Walking on air

If you would like to spend your birthday high up, then head off to Sant Martí, where you will find Bosc Urbà, an adventure park located in the middle of the city.

Also known as Room Escape, this sort of entertainment can have a number of different themes and can usually be played in English or Spanish in Barcelona.
