International Community

Barcelona is a diverse and open cosmopolitan city with a large international community. According to municipal records, over 29% of the city’s residents were born abroad, with some 176 different nationalities found among the people living here in the city.

Since 2014, a big annual gathering of members of Barcelona’s international community has been organised every October. It is a day full of activities, workshops and conferences, including a fair with businesses, organisations and associations that provide services, products and initiatives.
