Girona's Barri Vell, the city's old quarter, will face new restrictions linked to Disney's live-action adaptation of Tangled from Sunday 13 July to Sunday 3 August, with residents, drivers and businesses likely to see limits on access, parking and public space reservations across parts of the neighbourhood.

According to reporting first published by Diari de Girona on Tuesday 8 July, filming will not take place every day during that period. Even so, the disruption is expected to last longer in practice because reservations of public space and areas for technical vehicles have already started this week and will remain in place until sets are dismantled.

The restrictions affect different areas of Barri Vell rather than a single closed set. Residents who need to move through the old quarter, especially around restricted-access streets such as Carrer de la Força and the wider historic centre traffic-control zone, may need to check temporary changes before travelling.

What residents and drivers need to know

Girona City Council says audiovisual productions can trigger temporary effects on mobility and public space, and it publishes active filming notices through the Girona Film Office affected areas page. The council also operates a restricted-traffic system in Barri Vell and nearby historic streets through its Mobilitat i Via Pública restricted circulation service.

  • The period flagged for disruptions runs from Sunday 13 July to Sunday 3 August.
  • Filming is for Disney's live-action adaptation of Tangled, known in Catalan and Spanish as Enredados.
  • Public space reservations and technical vehicle zones began earlier this week, before principal filming starts.
  • The impact will continue until the different sets are dismantled.

For drivers with permission needs in the old quarter, the council's authorisation procedure for driving in Barri Vell remains the official route for access requests. The council also sets out the general criteria for circulation in the old quarter on its Barri Vell circulation rules page.

City Council channels for filming permits and notices

Girona City Council provides a formal application for authorisation to carry out film shoots and photographic sessions, which governs the use of public space for productions. It also regulates activities and occupation linked to events and terraces through its municipal intervention ordinance for leisure, hospitality and public activities.

The impact on the neighbourhood will last longer because some public space reservations and areas for technical vehicles have already started this week and will continue until the dismantling of the different sets.

People living or working in Barri Vell can check active notices through the Girona Film Office affected areas page and the council's mobility pages before driving, arranging deliveries or planning visits during the 13 July to 3 August period.
