Semana d’Arquitectura
to
Barcelona City Centre 08001 Barcelona
From May 20th to the 26th, Barcelona will be the epicentre of architecture, in an attempt to encourage city dwellers to value and appreciate their urban environment. In collaboration with Barcelona City Council, the Barcelona Building Construmat and the Fundació Mies van der Rohe, the week promises an extensive programme of cinema, lectures, tours and contests. Among the most notable events are a series of ‘arquitectours’ organised by the Institut d'Arquitectura Avançada de Catalunya (Association of Architects of Catalunya) that will take you on a journey around the city’s most architecturally rich areas, including a day trip to the three hills of Barcelona and their parks. Be sure to catch the exhibition showcasing the competing designs for the new Vall d’Hebron building, and the ceremony to announce the winner.
