Viu Montjuïc returns with more activities and the Lliure in the spotlight

Montjuïc will be transformed again on 3 and 4 October with a new edition of Viu Montjuïc. Throughout the weekend, the park will host free activities, routes, workshops and shows designed for families, groups of friends and visitors wishing to rediscover the mountain.

The programme will take place across gardens, museums, theatres, and other cultural venues in the area. The aim is for the public to move between different activities and discover spaces that are often left out of the usual routes around Barcelona.

There will be music, dance, and theatre activities, as well as guided tours and workshops related to heritage and nature. This year’s edition increases the number of collaborations between organisations in the park, with a more connected schedule spread across different parts of Montjuïc.

One of the highlights will be Teatre Lliure, which will celebrate its 50th anniversary with special events over the weekend. Its participation will strengthen the performing arts focus of an event that each year combines culture, walking, and outdoor life.

Viu Montjuïc will also be an opportunity to visit lesser-known gardens and corners with historical value. The mountain brings together some of the city’s most important cultural spaces, but also paths, viewpoints, and green areas that many Barcelona residents still don’t visit often.

This edition is part of the lead-up to the centenary of the 1929 International Exposition, a date that will bring new changes to the area. The event uses this context to call for a park that is more open, connected, and easy to enjoy.

The full schedule, with times, locations, and access conditions, will be published later. Some activities may require prior registration, so it’s advisable to check the programme before planning your visit.

For two days, the scene will fill the mountain with visitors, stages, and bustling paths. Among gardens, theatres, and historic buildings, Montjuïc will once again show itself as one of Barcelona’s great cultural and natural spaces.
