Programme Preview

Barcelona is a global leader when it comes to humanist and transformative architecture that is committed to people, sustainability, and culture.

For this reason, the Capital's program, designed in a collaborative way, is as lively, diverse, and multifaceted as the city itself. In addition, it is aimed at all audiences: the general public, professionals, and educators. There will also be a program specifically dedicated to primary and secondary schools in Barcelona and its metropolitan area, where architecture will take center stage.

Show more

The entire Capital's program is scheduled to be announced in mid-January, with an estimated 1,500 activities.
