The Castellers, live!
The Festa Catalana is a local festival that invites you to join in. It was set up with the aim of disseminating Catalan traditions and culture. Every Saturday in spring and summer in the Plaça de la Catedral you can thrill to the jaw-dropping human towers built by the groups of Castellers, admire the skills of the stick dancers and the acrobatic formations created by the Falcons, learn to dance the Catalan folk dance, the sardana, and, above all, enjoy yourself and learn something new.
Culture and fun rolled into one! |
