Updated May 27 2023
Luckily, for fans of concerts and live music, if there’s anything that there’s plenty of in both Barcelona and the rest of the region, it’s music festivals. The same is true in other cities in Catalonia, where they are encouraged by the huge demand and the benefits that holding these events bring.
They choose to promote the organisation of a music festival in its town, city or nearby area, be it directly organising or indirectly enabling its celebration as much as possible. All of this means that, fortunately for everyone who enjoys music festivals, it is more and more difficult to find a weekend where a music festival is not held in Barcelona or another place in Catalonia, at least during the spring and summer.
The best Music festivals in Barcelona (2023 / 2024)
Here, you will find information on the music festivals held each year in Barcelona city and region. Name of the festival, dates, type of music and approximate price of the tickets and/or passes. We also include a map where you can see what the venue of each festival is like.
It is worth noting that there are some festivals that are organised throughout the whole year and in different places and concert halls. These do not appear on the map but are in the list.
