Every entry on this page has a source stating that anyone can come, or that visitors are welcome. That covers club evenings open to non-members, café meet-ups, public tables and tournaments that take outside entries. It is the shortest route to a game if you are visiting Barcelona or have just moved here.
Open does not always mean free, and welcome does not mean every day. Check the cost line and the sessions table on each card, and look at the date at the end of the line: an open evening confirmed recently is a safer plan than one last seen long ago. Entries whose access is not stated by any source are left off this page, even if they may well accept visitors.
