Christmas festival in Barcelona

Last minute plan: Chrismas fest today!

Looking to get in the Christmas mood? Search no more and check out the Oso WinterFest! This is a new event in town.

OSO wanted to create “something that transports people and helps them forget the everyday nonsense that drags them down in daily life”. And so they took over the Monastery of Sant Miquel in Poble Espanyol. Oso put up the Oso WinterFest only for our pleasure, eyes and senses! Indeed the festival includes live music, street food, movies and a market among other surprises.

The Oso WinterFest runs over this week end (Saturday and sunday). And today is the last day. But there is still time, so hurry to get a ticket! I am particularly interested in the movies they are broadcasting. I love watching Christmas movies. This afternoon, they will show “Home alone” with Macaulay Culkin (bring on the childhood memories) and “It’s a wonderful life”, a (much) older movie.

I salute Oso’s initiative to remind us that Chrismas is one of the most wonderful time of the year. And I will go today. Ticket is 12 euros each. They can be bought online. See you there!

The post Christmas event review

I went to the Oso Winterfest on Sunday afternoon as planned.

The Monastery is a beautiful building by itself but with all the lights and the Chrismas tree it got a magical touch as well. The bands were amazing and “Home alone” funny (but that is expected).  We got a free beer as a surprise. That is a nice touch! I liked everything. Next year, I hope they will come back  with more Christmas atmosphere!
