<\/p>\nJust because summer is over it doesn\u2019t mean that Barcelona goes into hibernation for the rest of the year. In fact, it is just the opposite. Autumn in Spain\u2019s cultural center is always a great time, so here\u2019s a top ten list of events that will make your autumn in Barcelona incredible.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s probably the best festival in Barcelona, usually running from September 20th to the 24th. Merc\u00e8 Festival has everything \u2026 and we mean everything! Let\u2019s start with live music: rock, hip hop, jazz, house, dub step, you name it \u2013 they got it. Oh, did we mention that most of the music is totally free too? With Castellers and fireruns, you\u2019ll feel the true essence of a Barcelona festival.<\/p>\n
Mercat de Mercats Festival may be a mouthful to say, but it is an even bigger mouthful to swallow, in the best way possible! Combining Barcelona\u2019s great markets with their gastronomical expertise, this festival will take your taste buds and your belt bucket to the next level! Sip some local wines and cava, take a cooking workshop from a star chef, and eat as much as you can!<\/p>\n
Festa Major de la Barceloneta is the real deal. At the end of September each year, where you get to know the culture, the people, the music, the tastes. All of the senses are excited. Spread out all throughout the Old Town, this festival is fun for the whole family. Did we mention there are fireworks? Well, there are\u2026 and plenty of them.<\/p>\n
There is no conversation about the best Jazz festival in the world that doesn\u2019t include Barcelona\u2019s. For over four decades, Barcelona\u2019s Jazz Festival has attracted the top musicians in the world. Imagine listening to syncopated rhythms in the cozy, cool atmosphere of the Harlem Jazz Club.<\/p>\n
Every autumn brings a wide variety of quality film festivals to Barcelona. But it\u2019s the variety of genres of movies from all over the world that is most impressive. There are about twenty different film festivals in and around Barcelona this season. The world\u2019s best short films, indie films, documentaries, and feature films can be found in Fall.<\/p>\n
