New Years Eve Barcelona

I saw online that there are NYE events at Poble Espanyol, Razzmataz, and Salla Apolo, among others. However, we will not be arriving in Barcelona until the afternoon of Dec 31. Is it possible (and should I try to?) buy these tickets in advance, or can we just get them at the door? I know everyone keeps saying that NYE in Barcelona isn't as big a deal as it is in other cities, but I'm not sure how far in advance to plan. Thanks!

New Year's Eve is a HUGE deal in Barcelona! I was there. It was wall-to-wall drunk people on La Rambla, all restaurants full (ended up eating a wrap at a fast-food place with no place to sit down). Plan well, and good luck.

I was in Barcelona last year for NYE and was dissappointed that there seemed to be so little going on. I know Barca well and just couldn't believe that for a party city it was as quiet as it was. That being said, we had a good time....a box or two of wine and a bottle of cava in my purse / backpack and wandering the city was fun.
