Just moved to Barcelona? Pick your language: your first month step by step, and events you can go to on your own.
A free drawing-and-movement workshop: draw together to the music of Giselle, La Sylphide and Coppélia, sketch each other without looking at the paper and create one big shared artwork. No skills needed — just come on time.
Join a free, inclusive community parade with Les Tumberas and their Afro-Brazilian drums and dances — no experience needed. Street art and an open “tumbe” dance workshop follow along the Rambla del Carmel.
A free guided stroll through the Farró, a small hidden neighbourhood at the foot of the Putxet hill: where the name comes from, who lived there and the stories behind its old windows.
Barcelona's big autumn sardana gathering: three live cobla bands play and everyone can join the circle to dance Catalonia's traditional dance. Morning dance from 10:30, another in the afternoon from 16:00. Free.
A free guided visit to Fabra i Coats, a historic textile factory in Sant Andreu that is now a centre for artistic creation: its past, its present and what artists make there today. Meeting point: inner lobby.
A guided visit at the Fundació Joan Miró on Montjuïc built around the idea of the circle: explore how Miró created his works and how they connect with the building and with your own way of looking.
A free guided walk from Plaça Vila de Madrid to the Pou de la Figuera park to discover the plants, birds and other animals that share the city centre with us — and how they adapt to urban life. Organised for the International Day of Climate Action.
Make panellets — the small almond sweets of Catalonia's autumn Castanyada festival — with original recipes in many flavours and colours. A sweet, hands-on way to meet people and learn a local tradition.
Once a year the historic Poblenou Cemetery opens at night: the paths are lit with candles and guides in period costume lead you to the most remarkable tombs and sculptures, with stories and curiosities about famous people of Barcelona's past. Meeting point: the main façade.
