Cambrils hosts the Nintendo Switch 2 Tour: 3 free days, 74 stations, and more than 15 games

The Nintendo Switch 2 Tour arrives in Cambrils from August 7 to 9 with 74 gaming stations and free entrance. When you enter Parc del Pescador in the afternoon, you will find rows of consoles, a photocall, and new game releases: a clear appointment for players, families, and tourists.

For three summers, Cambrils has been one of the favorite stops on the tour. This year, the event is open daily from 5 PM to 11 PM and offers a selection that includes Super Mario (40th anniversary), Splatoon Raiders, and other novelties; all organized by the Municipal Tourism Board.

According to the text published by Rubén Pizarro and the Cambrils City Council, the activity is part of the national Nintendo Switch 2 Tour and will be one of only two stops in Catalonia, with 74 gaming stations and more than 15 titles available.

What You Will Find at Parc del Pescador

Why Does This Matter to Visitors?

This space matters because it concentrates demos, premieres, and thematic activities that are normally only seen at large fairs; if you like video games, it is an opportunity to try titles without buying them.

Which Games and Attractions Will Be There?

Short answer: Super Mario (40th-anniversary celebration), Splatoon Raiders, Donkey Kong Bananza, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and other recent titles.

More than 15 video games have been confirmed for Nintendo Switch 2. Among them are classic sagas like Super Mario (Mario Kart World, Super Mario Party Jamboree, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Super Mario Galaxy), new releases like Splatoon Raiders, and other family-friendly proposals like Animal Crossing or Pokémon Pokopia. A special photocall is also announced for Mario’s 40th anniversary, designed for photos and social media content.

Who Is the Event For and How to Make the Most of It

Who Should Go?

If you have a Nintendo Switch 2 console, live or spend the summer in Cambrils, or come with children, this event is ideal.

The sessions are especially suitable for families with children and teenagers, groups of friends looking for friendly competitions, and tourists who want a free local experience in the afternoon. It is also a good opportunity for those who want to try new releases before deciding on a purchase.

How Does This Benefit the City?

Cambrils strengthens its summer tourist appeal and expands its nighttime cultural offer: the arrival of the tour will attract visitors who will consume dining and lodging and will give visibility to Parc del Pescador as an event space.

The connection between video games and tourism generates local activity, and this is noticeable in commerce and services.

How to Prepare Your Visit: Steps and Practical Advice

How Do I Organize My Afternoon to Make the Most of It?

Arrive between 5:00 PM and 6:30 PM to avoid long lines; try titles that interest you and book photos at the photocall as soon as possible.

Below is a list of practical steps to plan your visit:

• Arrive at Parc del Pescador before 7:00 PM to find shorter lines.
• Locate the information booth (staff identified) and ask about the order of the titles.
• Try longer or competitive games first (e.g., Mario Kart World) and shorter games afterwards.
• Use the Mario 40th Anniversary photocall early to avoid crowds.
• Respect turns and trial times to ensure more people can play.

Keep in mind that this is an outdoor event: bring water and light clothing.

What Logistical Recommendations Are Worth Following?

Public transport, parking, and local schedules can affect your experience; plan short visits and leave time for eating or strolling along the promenade.

If you come by car, look for public parking or park in the port area and walk towards the park; if you prefer public transport, check bus schedules and walking routes from the center. Bring portable chargers if you have battery-dependent devices and respect the organizers’ measures.
