Sopars amb Estrelles is a summer-long dinner-and-stargazing series at the Observatori Fabra on Tibidabo, operated by Sternalia and running select evenings Tuesday to Sunday from 29 May to 4 October 2026. An evening starts with check-in and a welcome drink at 20:15, dinner on the open-air terrace from 20:30, a roughly 30-minute scientific lecture (in Catalan or Spanish) at 21:45, then a guided visit through the modernist museum hall and the great dome — where you observe through the observatory's 1904 telescope — wrapping up around 23:30.
Dinner is booked by menu tier: Observatori (€84), Fabra (€92), de les Estrelles (€106) or Gourmet (€126), with a vegetarian menu (€84) and a children's menu for ages 2–12 (€42; under-2s free, 13+ pay adult rates). Each tier offers a dessert cake and cava for a few euros more. Every adult menu includes the welcome drink, a multi-course dinner, wine, beer, soft drinks, water and coffee, plus the lecture and the full guided museum-and-telescope programme.
The Observatori Fabra sits on Tibidabo with views over Barcelona — home to a 1904 telescope that Sternalia describes as one of the largest and oldest in Europe still in operation. If cloud cover worries you, ask Sternalia about the arrangements before booking.
A dinner, a short lecture and a look through a 1904 telescope in one evening. The food is solid Catalan, the lecture is short and engaging, and the visit ends under the great dome with the 1904 telescope. Check-in starts at 20:15, so arrive in time for the welcome drink.
