A fresh proposal for this summer from our Hostel in Barcelona: The Mecal Air

Hostel-in-Barcelona-Mecal-Air

At our Hostel in Barcelona we know that for Barcelona Backpackers who come to the city in summer it's always interesting to find activities at dusk, when they can enjoy the fresh night air. If you stay for these days at our Hostel in Barcelona, now that it seems that the sun will melt the streets, you might want to find some cooler Barcelona activities overnight. At sunset, the temperature gets cooler, but Barcelona still has many offers. Our Hostel in Barcelona will propose you something else than the traditional "chiringuitos" on the beach or the ineffable summer terraces.

We suggest you to visit the Poble Espanyol in the evening. The Poble Espanyol is a separate space in the city, conceived as a little village inside Barcelona, it's a microcosm of streets and squares where each building is a symbol of different architectural styles of the towns and cities of Spain. At our Hostel in Barcelona we think that it's well worth visiting the Poble Espanyol by day due to its originality but also during the summer nights for it has become an important center of activities and concerts.

Among the events that take place there, our Hostel in Barcelona recommends to all Barcelona Backpackers the Mecal Air, an exclusive and original proposal whose sessions are held at the open air every Friday untill september at the Plaça del Baluard in the Poble Espanyol.

And what is it? The Mecal Air is an innovative audiovisual project, whose sessions include the screening of short films and music in a special environment for the occasion, a stylish chill out in a unique framework, an outdoor terrace where you stay cool and enjoy wonderful views of the city of Barcelona. The festival features every Friday a selection of short films and music where each session focuses on a specific subject: hard core animation, burlesque, fire ... Different proposals for Barcelona Backpackers!

Each session of the Mecal Air also offers a bar and barbecue service. You can go there and have dinner at the open air while enjoying a fresh, innovative and elegant proposal at sunset.

The event costs 5 €, but if you print the special flyer you'll find on their website, the ticket is only 2 €: www.mecalbcn.org. A great price for Barcelona Backpackers staying at our Hostel in Barcelona.

The price for the BBQ is not included in the ticket.

The Mecal Air is held every Friday from 8:00 pm to 01:00 am. From 8:00 pm to 9:00 pm a famous brand of beer offers drinks for 1 €.
