Will you be in Barcelona this May, studying Spanish with us ? Are you still wondering what you will be doing in your free time? Here are some cool suggestions…
- Buy a vinyl record at the International Record Fair: This fair gathers those who are nostalgic for vinyl in Barcelona, this year on May the 5th, 6th and 7th. Far from being an exclusive meeting for lovers of rock and heavy metal produced between the ’70s and ’90s, it offers music for all audiences. And not only in terms of genres, but also because of the various formats that can be found. With an indisputable volume of attendance, the Fira Internacional del Disco de Barcelona has become, once again, a place of congregation for all those who refuse to reduce music to a simple digital file. And the tickets are just 6€!
- Do you fancy a vermouth? During the same weekend, you can live “the vermut experience” at the Port Vell in Barcelona. There you’ll find the Fira Vermut & Soul, with tickets at just 3.5€! Vermouths, beer, snacks, live music… at the harbour, what else do you need?
