Covid-19 measures for Christmas
To put a halt to the rising tide of Covid-19 cases caused by the omicron variant, the Catalan government is implementing new restrictions starting on Friday, 24 December.
A sustainable Christmas
Christmas is usually a time when people consume a lot, buying presents, food and drink, as well as ornamental plants, such as fir trees. People also make more journeys and use more energy in their homes. Follow these ten tips for preventing waste!
Cleaning and waste collection
There is extra street cleaning in the more central and commercial areas of every district over the Christmas festivities. Also, daily paper and cardboard collections in the main shopping hubs.
Safety, mobility and a community spirit
A special operation will be in place this Christmas to ensure public safety and mobility in all districts and prevent conflicts.
Get around using public transport
During the Christmas period when so many people are out and about in the city, above all in shopping centres, we recommend walking, or using a bicycle or public transport
