        Open air cinema

If you want to enjoy a good movie, on a blanket or a lounger, eating a burger, surrounded by cool people, enjoying a beautiful view and a concert before, and not in a closed environment, well we highly recommend the open-air cinema. Your Summer 2018 in Barcelona! Image
The Sala Montjuic offers a selection of either classic and more recent movies, until August 3rd, and not only on weekends but also during the week. The bonus: the price is only 6,5€ for the entrance! Another great tip is the Cinema Lliure a la Platja, which is a free open-air cinema on the beach! Yes, you read it right, it is free and on the beach, how could it be better? However, make sure to check the language of the movie and subtitles before going to see it, because it can either be in English, Spanish or Catalan.

        Festas majores
