La Plaça de Sant Jaume

Digital arts. Stars and silent rhythms, in an immersive open-air projection that reinterprets the classic imagery of Christmas and that changes colour on designated days.

The long-awaited celebration is here, which, based on the traditional imagery of Christmas, is once again reinterpreted. This year, in our square, the stars and the cosmos embrace us in a warm return of light to the city.

Christmas, beyond the spirit of the solstice, is the cradle of various traditions that celebrate light. A splendour that returns to Barcelona, scaling the two emblematic buildings in the square, highlighting their architectural details, in harmonious dialogue with each other and merging with the celestial dome. We will feel how the light cadence and silent rhythms evoke a subtle and emotional symphony that will resonate within us.

A live projection that, in addition, will change colour on the most special dates of Christmas, the nights of 24, 25 and 31 December and 1 and 5 January. A celebration open to everyone in a square transformed into an immersive open-air experience.
