In the middle of August, one of the most famous neighborhoods of Barcelona celebrates its festival. If you come to Barcelona during August you should totally visit this neighborhood.

This is the winner of 2015

During one week there will be a lot of activities for everyone and where streets are decorated too. How? This is one of the most famous attractions of this event. The streets of Gràcia are transformed into magic places. The people who live in the street think of a theme and they decorate their street with recyclable products and with extraordinary ideas. After that, there is a contest to decide which street has the better decoration. This year the street that has won has been C/Verdi which was decorated in Japanese style.

You can enjoy other activities such as cercaviles, castellers, workshops, water fights, some championships such as the domino one, concerts…

We recommend this festival because it is different and so much fun.
