The Fira Modernista de Barcelona is an annual celebration in the Dreta de l’Eixample district that brings the spirit of Catalan Modernisme back to life. Walking through its streets at this time feels like stepping into the early 20th century. Exhibitions, artisan stalls, vintage cars, live music and people in period dress fill the area with a strong sense of history. Everything is geared towards preserving the city’s artistic and cultural heritage. It is a period that still runs through Barcelona, quietly woven into everyday life.
This is good to know
Each edition is usually dedicated to a key figure or aspect of Modernisme, such as architects, writers or artists.
