Festivities in Gracia 2022

The village of Gracia is one of the neighborhoods with more personality of the city. It has a lot of life and a bohemian atmosphere that invites you to stroll through its narrow streets, or have a coffee in one of its squares, in the end you will end up captivated in each of its corners. 

This year, the festival is awaited with great joy and enthusiasm and more than 900 free activities are scheduled. The event is for everyone, for this reason some of its activities will be aimed at people with different abilities because we want to bring the importance of this tradition and the social values it encompasses, to all people and that it is preserved over time for future generations.

Among the activities we will find a variety of outdoor concerts, food, games, orchestras, dancing and much more, but what stands out the most is the decorative spectacle offered by the streets. Twenty-three streets of the Villa de Gracia will be decorated by enthusiastic neighbors, who see here the perfect opportunity to get carried away and unleash their creativity.

Each street can choose the theme to be used, the aim is to generate visual impact, since at the end of the week the contest will be held where the best proposal will be chosen. The neighborhood associations prepare months in advance and try to do all the preparation with as much reserve as possible, in order to cause surprise and amazement during the week of celebration.

We show you the apartments we have located in the neighborhood of Gracia.

Last year there was a little bit of everything: a sea, with free-swimming fish, made of turquoise mesh that became the roof of one of the streets; a giant paint boat that scattered in the air the colors of the rainbow; the planets of the solar system floating side by side; butterflies and colorful flowers that make you imagine a garden; among others. Each street is wrapped in its own creation, so take note of your favorite and vote for it.

The results of the contest will be made public on August 17 at 18hrs in the Vila de Gracia square where the winners will be awarded according to each category.

The Plaza de la Revolución will have a space for reports and advice where you can receive all the information you need. But you can also download the application of the festival where you can see the program of each day, the map where the decorated streets are located and where you can also vote for your favorite street.

If you come to Barcelona and coincide with this week, do not hesitate to put it as part of your itinerary.
