Yes, as long as you let us know at least 7 days in advance.

If you let us know within that period, you'll be able to change your booking to another available date with no problem.

After the 7 days before the experience, it won't be possible to make changes any more, as your spot will already be reserved and we won't have enough time to offer it again.

If the change is due to a medical reason and you can provide a certificate, we'll be happy to find a new date for you.

If you cancel your booking within that period, we'll refund 50% of the amount paid using the same payment method used to make the booking.

If the cancellation is made with less than 7 days' notice, it won't be possible to issue a refund, as your spot will have been reserved exclusively for you and we won't have enough time to fill it.

If you can't attend for a medical reason and can provide a certificate, get in touch with us and we'll look into your case to offer you the best possible solution.

We recommend arriving 5-10 minutes before the start time so we can all begin together.

🕯️ For Candle & Glow, it's very important to be on time, as the experience follows a specific order and we work with materials that have drying and setting times. If you arrive once it has started, you may not be able to join the session.

✨ For the candle workshops, arriving on time is also important. We start with a joint explanation and each step is guided. If you're late, you could miss part of the explanation or not keep up with the group's pace.

If you know you're going to be delayed, let us know as soon as possible. We'll always try to help, although whether you can join will depend on how far along the experience is.

If you can't attend for a medical reason, get in touch with us as soon as possible.

As long as you can provide a medical certificate, we'll offer you the option to change your booking to another available date, even if the request is made outside the usual 7-day window.

The new booking must be used within a maximum of 2 months from the date of the original experience and will be subject to availability.

Our goal is for you to be able to enjoy the experience once you've recovered, without an unforeseen situation making you lose your booking.

Although this is very unusual, in exceptional circumstances it may be necessary to postpone or cancel an experience for organisational reasons or force majeure.

If this happens, we'll get in touch with you as soon as possible to offer you a new date or, if you prefer and rescheduling isn't possible, a full refund of the amount paid.

Our goal is always to find the solution that best suits you, so you can enjoy the experience as soon as possible.

Although you'll make your own candle in both experiences, the way you experience them is quite different.

Candle & Glow is an experience lasting about 2 hours, designed to switch off, share a good time and make your own container with water-based acrylic resin before turning it into a scented candle. You'll also enjoy a non-alcoholic drink and a waffle during the experience.

The candle workshops last approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes and are more focused on learning different techniques while you make your own pieces, always guided step by step by our team. As each group has its own pace, the experience can run up to about 3 hours, so everyone can enjoy the process without rushing. They also include unlimited drinks and a small snack.

If you're looking for a creative, relaxed and different plan to share, Candle & Glow is your experience. If you'd rather dive deeper into the world of candle making, learn new techniques and enjoy a more complete experience, the candle workshops are the ideal choice.

Both Candle & Glow and the candle workshops include all the materials you need, so all you have to bring is the enthusiasm to enjoy yourself.

🕯️ Candle & Glow

• Making your own container with water-based acrylic resin.
• Making a personalised scented candle.
• Choice between different scents.
• Optional decoration with dried flowers, orange and cinnamon.
• A waffle.
• A non-alcoholic drink.

✨ Candle workshops

Each workshop includes different materials and techniques depending on the experience chosen. You'll be able to make different pieces while learning step by step alongside our team.

All workshops also include:

• Unlimited drinks (wine, beer, water and soft drinks).
• A small snack with popcorn.
• All the necessary materials.

In both experiences, you'll take your creations home the same day.

No, you don't need any previous experience to enjoy our experiences.

Both Candle & Glow and the candle workshops are designed so that anyone can take part, even if it's the first time they've made a candle.

We'll guide you step by step through the whole experience, explaining each part of the process, so all you have to do is relax, enjoy and let your creativity flow.

It doesn't matter if you've never done anything like this before. What matters isn't doing it perfectly, but enjoying the moment and taking home a creation made by you.

The candle workshops do accept individual bookings and are a perfect option if you fancy coming on your own. You'll share the experience with other people and our team will guide you step by step throughout the activity.

Candle & Glow, on the other hand, is designed as an experience to share. It's the ideal plan to come with your partner, a friend, a family member or anyone you'd like to create a special memory with.

If you have any doubts about which of the two experiences suits you best, we'll be happy to help.

It depends on the experience you choose.

🕯️ Candle & Glow lasts approximately 2 hours.

✨ The candle workshops last approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes. As each group has its own pace, the experience can sometimes run up to about 3 hours, so everyone can enjoy the process without rushing.

If you're planning to have lunch, dinner or continue with your plans afterwards, we recommend leaving a little extra time, so you can enjoy the experience with complete peace of mind.

Yes. In both Candle & Glow and the candle workshops, you'll take your creations home the same day.

In Candle & Glow, the resin piece needs about 50 minutes to set properly before you can continue with the process and take it home safely. That's why it's so important to start all together and arrive on time.

In the candle workshops, the pieces will also be ready for you to take home at the end of the experience.

Yes. Our experiences are recommended from age 6.

Children must take part accompanied by an adult, who must also have their own booking and take part in the experience. It's not possible to attend only as a companion.

If little ones need help during any part of the process, don't worry. Our team will be happy to lend a hand so they enjoy the experience just as much as the adults.

Candle & Glow isn't a traditional candle workshop. It's a creative experience in which you'll design a piece that's entirely your own from the start.

Instead of filling a ready-made container, you'll make your own water-based resin container, choose its design and, once it's ready, turn it into a personalised scented candle with the scent and decoration you like best.

All while enjoying a relaxed atmosphere, with a drink and a waffle, designed to switch off, share and live a different experience in Barcelona.

If you're looking for a creative activity where the result is truly unique, Candle & Glow is designed to surprise you from the very first minute.

At Des Candles Studio we work with carefully selected materials so you can enjoy a quality creative experience and take home a beautiful, long-lasting creation.

In Candle & Glow you'll make your own container with water-based acrylic resin and turn it into a scented candle using plant-based wax.

In our candle workshops in Barcelona we use different materials and techniques depending on the experience chosen. Most of our workshops use plant-based wax, although we occasionally organise special workshops with other types of wax, such as gel wax. You'll always find this information in the description of each experience before booking.

Our goal is to offer you different creative experiences, so some workshops change materials and techniques so there's always something new to discover.

If it's your first visit to Des Candles Studio, any of our experiences will be a good choice. It all depends on what you're looking for.

If you fancy a more relaxed, social plan, where you make a completely unique piece while enjoying a drink and a waffle, Candle & Glow is the perfect option.

If you'd rather learn different techniques, experiment with different materials and spend more time on the creative process, we recommend our candle workshops in Barcelona.

You don't need previous experience for either option. We'll guide you step by step so you can enjoy the process from the very first moment.

Of course! You can take as many photos and videos as you like during the experience.

At Des Candles Studio we love you taking home a memory of such a special moment. Our space is designed so you can enjoy creating, sharing and living a unique experience, so you'll find plenty of perfect spots to capture your visit.

If you share your content on social media and tag us, we'd love to see it and share it with our community.

You don't need to come in special clothing. The most important thing is to come comfortable and ready to enjoy the experience.

During the activity you'll work with different materials and, although it doesn't usually happen, as with any creative experience a small drop of wax or resin could occasionally fall. If you'd rather be completely relaxed about it, we recommend wearing clothes you feel comfortable in.

We'll guide you throughout the whole process so all you have to worry about is enjoying yourself, creating and taking home a unique memory.

Don't worry. All our experiences are guided step by step so you can enjoy the process and achieve a result you're proud of.

Our team will be by your side throughout the activity to answer questions, give you advice and help you whenever you need it. Also, each creation is unique, and that's precisely its charm: we're not looking for them all to be the same, but to reflect your own style and creativity.

The best part is that you'll take home a piece made by you, and that gives it a special value that no other piece can have.

You won't just take home a candle or a creation made by you. You'll take home the memory of a shared experience, of the time you spent creating something with your own hands, and of a moment you'll remember every time you see your piece at home.

Each creation is unique because it reflects your style, your creativity and the experience you lived that day. That's precisely why no two are ever the same.

No. Even though the process is guided, each person makes a different piece.

You'll be able to choose between different colours, scents, finishes and decorative elements, so the result will always be unique. We also add new workshops and special experiences throughout the year at Des Candles Studio, so there's always something new to discover.

We want you to enjoy the experience without rushing.

Each activity is designed so you can create calmly, share the moment, enjoy the process and take home a finished piece the same day. We don't just want you to come and make a candle, but to live a complete experience.

When you make a piece with your own hands, it stops being just another object and becomes a memory with special meaning.

Every time you light your candle or see your creation at home, you'll remember the moment you shared, the people you came with, and the experience you lived.

That's why we say that at Des Candles Studio you don't just take home a creation, but also a memory that will stay with you for a long time.

More and more people prefer to give memories that are remembered instead of objects that, over time, can be forgotten.

At Des Candles Studio, our gift vouchers let you enjoy a creative experience where, as well as having a good time, the person will make a piece with their own hands that they can take home as a keepsake.

It's a perfect gift for birthdays, anniversaries, secret Santa, Christmas, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, or simply to surprise someone with a different plan in Barcelona.

Plus, the person who receives the voucher can choose the date that suits them best within the validity period.

At Des Candles Studio we want you to enjoy much more than a simple workshop. Whether you choose Candle & Glow or one of our candle workshops in Barcelona, you'll enjoy a creative experience designed to switch off, share a good time and take home a creation made by you.

We work with quality materials, small groups and a welcoming atmosphere so you can enjoy the experience without rushing, whether you come as a couple, with friends, with family, to celebrate a birthday or as a corporate activity.

All our experiences are also guided step by step, so you don't need previous experience. All you need to bring is the enthusiasm to enjoy yourself and create a unique memory.

At Des Candles Studio we believe an experience isn't just about making a candle, but about enjoying the whole process.

That's why we've created two different experiences so you can choose the one that suits you best. In Candle & Glow, as well as making your candle, you'll make your own water-based resin container from scratch, turning each piece into something completely unique. If you'd rather learn new techniques and make several creations, our candle workshops in Barcelona let you discover different creative processes in a guided, fun way.

All our experiences take place in small groups, with quality materials and a carefully curated atmosphere so you can enjoy yourself without rushing, whether you come alone, as a couple, with friends, with family or to celebrate a special occasion.

Our goal is for you to take home much more than a creation made by you: we want you to take home a memory you'll always want to relive.

If you're looking for an original plan in Barcelona, at Des Candles Studio you'll find a different creative experience, where you won't just make your own candle, but also enjoy a moment to switch off, share and take home a unique memory made by you.

You can choose between Candle & Glow, a more relaxed and social experience where you'll also make your own water-based resin container, or our candle workshops in Barcelona, designed for those who want to learn different techniques while enjoying a creative activity.

It's an ideal plan to come as a couple, with friends, with family, to celebrate a birthday, a hen party, a corporate event, or simply to do something different in Barcelona.

Many of our customers come back because they discover that every experience is different.

Some people start with Candle & Glow and come back to try one of our candle workshops. Others return to celebrate a birthday, come with someone else, or simply enjoy a new creative experience.

We also add new experiences and special workshops throughout the year, so there's always something different to discover.

Our greatest pride is seeing how people who visit us for the first time come back months later with friends, family or their partner to share the experience with them.

We live surrounded by screens, rushing and routines. That's why more and more people are looking for activities that let them switch off, create with their own hands and spend quality time with the people they love most.

At Des Candles Studio we believe a creative experience is about much more than the final result. It's a chance to stop, enjoy the moment, discover something new and take home a memory made by you.

Whether you choose Candle & Glow or one of our candle workshops in Barcelona, you'll live an experience designed to enjoy the process as much as the creation.
