Gathering of Barcelona’s human towers groups

The stars of the meeting will be the Barcelona, Sants, Vila de Gràcia, Poble Sec, Sagrada Família and Jove de Barcelona human towers groups, who will be meeting in Pl. Nova at 10 am and setting off on two parades towards Pl. Sant Jaume. The first takes in C/ Bisbe before reaching Pl. Sant Jaume. The second takes in C/ Bisbe and continues along C/ Pietat and C/ Paradís before reaching Pl. Sant Jaume.

In front of the Santa Eulàlia door of the cathedral, in C/ Bisbe, the groups will stop and build towers in honour of the patron. At 11 am, in Pl. Sant Jaume, they will then start building their towers in front of the balcony of City Hall. This year’s gathering will use the old-fashioned format, with a timed period of a hundred and five minutes for groups to erect their towers as soon as they have them ready.
