About this event

Barcelona's most beloved neighbourhood festival transforms Gràcia's streets into elaborate themed installations built by resident committees. Over a hundred activities fill the calendar: open-air concerts, correfocs, sardanes, castellers, giants, children's circus and craft workshops, plus inclusive spaces and a quiet no-noise night. Everything happens outdoors and is completely open to the public with no tickets required.

Why we picked it

The single biggest free cultural celebration in Barcelona in August, drawing huge crowds for its handmade decorated streets and nightly free concerts.
