MUSIC & ART IMMERSION BARCELONA2018

Itinerary

welcome

benvinguda

The Hotel Onix Liceo is our home and headquarters for the duration of

the Immersion. Over the past 18 months we’ve been working daily with

the Liceo staff to provide you with a remarkable hotel experience. When

out on the town in need of support feel free to ring the front desk at +34

934 81 64 41. They are up to date with the itinerary and can point you in the

right direction.

Hotel entry and Immersion events are exclusive to guests and require

you wear your laminate. Make certain to keep it with you at all times.

Remember, laminates never include escort privileges.

Most events are within walking distance from the Liceo, though a few

require taxi rides. For most walkable events, we have staff who will guide

you to the venues, or the hotel will order you a taxi. For some group

adventures, we prearrange taxi queues. Departure from the Liceo varies

based upon location and event, so be certain to check your daily itinerary

for departure times. If you’re out on the town feel free to arrive to most

events on your own, though we recommend you travel from the Liceo for

group adventures.

Should you require immediate assistance with any personal matters

outside the scope of the front desk, feel free to text or phone:
