To celebrate Barcelona’s designation as World Capital of Architecture 2026 and the centenary of Antoni Gaudí’s death, at Open events & espais we have designed an exclusive experience that invites you to discover the city from a different perspective.
A unique architectural tour of Barcelona with a specialized guide
Accompanied by a specialized architect-guide, we propose a unique journey designed to understand the architectural evolution of Barcelona, from the splendor of Modernism to the contemporary interventions that continue to shape its urban identity.
Barcelona, a global benchmark for architecture and urbanism
Barcelona is a city defined by architecture: by the beauty and singularity of many of its buildings, by the way it preserves and enhances its architectural heritage, and by its constant ambition to create welcoming, accessible, and inclusive public spaces.
Throughout history, renowned architects and urban planners have contributed to shaping this unique identity: Ildefons Cerdà, Antoni Gaudí, Domènech i Montaner, Jean Nouvel, Santiago Calatrava, and Norman Foster, among others. Thanks to them, Barcelona has become a global icon of architecture and urbanism, where styles, trends, and new technologies associated with so-called Smart Cities coexist Smart Cities.
