Located in the Navas neighbourhood in the district of Sant Andreu, the CEM Espronceda sports facility will be a role model for physical activity, with a new multi-purpose triple sports hall and spaces for minority sports such as table tennis, artistic gymnastics and archery.

Located at C/ Espronceda 320-324, this new sports facility responds to the needs identified by the Barcelona Map of Sports Facilities (MIEMB) to create new sports halls in specific spaces for the pursuit of minority sports, equally distributed around the city. The facility is expected to welcome some 800 users a day.

Located on two sites which were previously home to unused industrial buildings, the transformation of this space provides the district of Sant Andreu with a modern and accessible sports facility that fits in with the urban environment, designed for both federated sport and use by the rest of the population.

The project incorporates criteria for maximum energy and water self-sufficiency and environmental excellence, also adding more greenery and boosting biodiversity.
