Poblenou Open Day is when the neighbourhood’s creative community opens its doors and invites the public into its world. For one day, artists’ studios, galleries, workshops and food spaces reveal the cultural fabric that defines Poblenou Urban District. Wandering through the area becomes a way to discover individual projects and unexpected work, in direct contact with the people behind them. Talks, exhibitions and more unconventional proposals make Poblenou Open Day a unique chance to see how local talent and everyday creativity shape the neighbourhood.
This is good to know
Only on this day can you visit creative studios and agencies that are normally closed to the public. These are spaces where rarely seen pieces are shown for a short time, treated almost like relics.
Beyond its creative activity, the event offers a snapshot of the neighbourhood: former factories and workshops now home to designers and craftspeople, reflecting Poblenou’s ongoing evolution.
Many venues also run participatory activities, where visitors move from observing to taking part in the creative process. Some require advance registration or have limited capacity.
