From 26 March to 6 April, Port Vell becomes a major cultural stage with the arrival of the Art Explora Festival, a unique proposal that takes art beyond museum walls. Featuring the world's first museum ship, this free event transforms the Barcelona quay into a vibrant space where exhibitions, immersive experiences and a dynamic artistic programme come together.

On board the catamaran, visitors can embark on a sensory journey across the Mediterranean through sound installations and virtual reality experiences that connect past and present. On land, several pavilions expand the programme with exhibitions exploring everything from female figures in Mediterranean civilisations to contemporary perspectives on the sea, memory and migration.

The festival is completed by a live programme including concerts, performances, screenings and DJ sets, creating a space for exchange between artists and audiences. An opportunity to rediscover Barcelona's connection to the sea through culture, in an innovative format open to all.
