Breath in, breath out! – you will need a lot of energy in the middle of August. Fiesta Major de Gracia is one of the biggest street events of the summer. The Gracia neighborhood, normally a very quiet district of Barcelona, will be transformed into a summer carnival. Each street will have its own unusual decorations that were made by local residents.

It's traditionally a competition to completely change the appearance of the roads. So don't be surprised if you suddenly find yourself in a "magic garden" or stumble upon a mystical alley. All these new dimensions that you will discover by walking around, are made of recycled material. Surprise yourself. You don't need to get high to feel high!

There you will find: exhibitions, children's activities, workshops, parades, dance, theater, great food and of course MUSIC – every night there will be different bands, dj's and shows. 

You can see the program here: www.festamajordegracia.cat

Be ready to get lost and enjoy!

This is one of last year's decorations. How it's going to look like this year...?

Yesterday we were passing by Gracia to see what was going on. "The Mozart" international crew (Mozart street) is working pretty hard to get ready for the upcoming event. Their little workshop, already full of recycled material, has begun to take shape. Have you ever heard of the "Freak Circus"? If not... In two weeks you will be in for a treat when you experience this freakiness at Mozart street in the barrio de Gracia.
