The 53rd Feria de Abril de Catalunya returns to Barcelona's Parc del Fòrum this Friday, 24 April. Running for ten days until 3 May, the free event offers a vibrant celebration of Andalusian culture.
The festival transforms the Barcelona coastline into a hub of Andalusian tradition. Attendees can enjoy casetas with live music and dance, flamenco dresses, and southern Spanish gastronomy. This annual event serves as a significant meeting point for Catalonia's Andalusian community. It also invites all Barcelona residents to discover or reconnect with this rich tradition.
Cultural Programme and Free Access
The programme features live performances, traditional folk shows, and stalls offering authentic Andalusian cuisine. Additionally, the fair includes attractions for children and dedicated areas for sevillanas dancing. Access remains free throughout the ten-day duration.
