Barcelona's Parc del Fòrum will host the 53rd Catalonia's April Fair (Feria de Abril de Catalunya) from 24 April to 3 May, transforming the city's coastline into a celebration of Andalusian culture.
The ten-day event, which offers free entry, will feature traditional casetas with music and dance, flamenco dresses, and Southern Spanish gastronomy, according to Barcelona Secreta.
It serves as a significant gathering point for the Andalusian community residing in Catalonia, as well as for any Barcelona resident or visitor keen to experience this long-standing tradition.
The programme includes live performances, folk shows, and stalls offering traditional Andalusian cuisine. There will also be attractions for children and dedicated areas for sevillanas dancing.
