Everything you need to know to attend MWC 2025 in Barcelona: logistics, tickets, hotels and practical tips.
MWC 2025 will be held from February 24-27 in Barcelona. Here's my definitive guide for first-time attendees.
Logistics
How to Get There
- By plane: Direct flights from all major Italian cities
- By train: High-speed from Paris and other European cities
- By car: Not recommended due to traffic during the event
Where to Stay
- City center: More expensive but convenient for evening networking
- Fira area: Close to the event but less nightlife
- L'Hospitalet: Good quality-price compromise
Ticket Types
- Visitor Pass: Basic access
- Full Pass: Includes sessions and networking
- Executive Pass: VIP access and lounge
What to See
Must-See Pavilions
- Hall 3: Startups and innovation
- Hall 4: Network infrastructure
- Hall 5-7: Device manufacturers
Recommended Sessions
Morning keynotes are always crowded. I recommend arriving 30 minutes early.
Practical Tips
- Download the official app before leaving
- Wear comfortable shoes: you'll walk 15-20 km per day
- Charge your phone: power bank mandatory
- Business cards: still useful in 2025
