Dreta de l’Eixample Festival

The main festival of the Dreta de l'Eixample presents the Modernist Fair, with objects, gastronomic products, costumes, music and decorative elements from the era, demonstrations of ancient crafts, shows and open-air cinema, among others. There will also be concerts, opening speeches, castellers and cabarets.
Món Llibre 2025
Barcelona. From May 23rd to 25th
The Món Llibre festival will celebrate its 20th edition from May 23rd to the 25th with a program focused on literature and play that will be spread across various spaces in Barcelona. The festival, aimed at children between 0 and 12 years old, will feature a large exhibition at the CCCB where one will be able to play. Món Llibre has renewed its management this year, now led by Anna Juan and Piu Martínez, and focuses on children's and youth literature, moving away from performing arts, which held significant weight in previous editions. The festival will have two reading rooms, where books will turn into play. There will also be workshops on lithography, printmaking, and illustration, among others, to encourage children's creativity, as well as a space for young people.
