Anyone into the dance music scene (massive in Barcelona, by the way) will appreciate this one.
Barcelona Summer Week! Between the 3rd and the 9th of August, Barcelona will be playing host to the likes of David Guetta, DJ Tiesto, Armand Van Burren and Fedde le Grande, and over 100 more.
It’s not one single event, rather an invasion. It will take place across 30 clubs and 7 beaches with a normal attendance of over 50,000 people.
As I said, the line-up’s extensive, so if you want to see, just follow the link here to the Barcelona Summer Week website, also your one-stop shop for buying the tickets.
Get the party started!
It’s getting hot in town. Go out around midday and you might melt! Your clothes stick to your skin, and you realize that you’re onto your third or fourth bottle of water (ahem, beer).
Well the crafty Barcelonans have just the solution! In the North of the city, in the privileged and vibrant district of Gracia, you’ll find El Parque de la Creueta del Coll, complete with open air swimming pool.
Once a quarry, this site is now home to a very chilled-out Summer spot. There is quite a spectacular sculpture by Chilladas suspended above the pool called ‘Elogio al agua’ which means, ‘I praise the water’, and hopefully you will too.
It’s within walking distance of the famous Parc Guell, and could be just what you need to cool down after a walk around Gaudi’s spectacular park.
So bring a picnic, take a swim and relax under the palm trees away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre.
A day’s entrance to the pool is only €3, and the closest metro stop is 5-10 away called Penitents.
