Cultural Experiences in Barcelona and Catalonia

Barcelona and Catalonia are vibrant hubs of culture, history, and creativity, offering corporate groups an extraordinary opportunity to explore art, architecture, traditions, gastronomy, and cinema in an immersive way.

Home to universal artists rooted in Catalonia, such as Miró, Picasso, Dalí, Tàpies, Pau Casals, and Joan Brossa, the region has been a cradle of innovation and expression. Visitors can admire Antoni Gaudí’s iconic works, as well as the masterpieces of other Catalan Modernist architects like Lluís Domènech i Montaner and Josep Puig i Cadafalch, celebrated worldwide. Catalonia also preserves a remarkable Romanesque heritage, including the churches of the Vall de Boí and the Vall de Lord, offering a journey into the region’s medieval history.

Cultural institutions abound, with world-class museums such as Fundació Miró, MNAC, CCCB, Museu Picasso, Fundació Tàpies in Barcelona, and the Teatre-Museu Dalí in Figueres, enabling corporate groups to engage deeply with art and creativity.

Beyond art and architecture, the region’s living traditions bring culture to life: from the human towers of the Castellers and the circular dances of the Sardana, to the rhythmic Balls de Bastons and the fiery Correfocs led by the Diables, corporate teams can participate in dynamic, interactive cultural experiences.

Barcelona also enjoys a strong connection to cinema and animation, serving as the backdrop for internationally recognized films such as Woody Allen’s Vicky Cristina Barcelona, and as the home of celebrated Catalan filmmakers including J. A. Bayona, who received a special recognition at the 2024 Oscars. The region also stands out in animation innovation: Leo Sánchez, from L’Hospitalet, collaborated with Alberto Mielgo and later worked on major Disney and DreamWorks productions such as Bolt, Tangled, How to Train Your Dragon 2 & 3, and The Croods 2, highlighting Catalonia’s contribution to the global animation industry.

Catalonia’s culture also shines through its world-renowned gastronomy, with Michelin-starred chefs such as the Roca brothers, Ferran Adrià, Carme Ruscalleda, and Nandu Jubany, complemented by an exceptional tradition of wines and cava from prestigious DO regions across the territory.

At Obrint Via Events, we design customized cultural experiences for corporate groups, combining interaction, discovery, and team engagement. Whether exploring Barcelona’s artistic streets, enjoying hands-on workshops, visiting museums, experiencing the cinematic heritage, or indulging in wine and culinary experiences, every activity is tailored to enhance team cohesion, creativity, and well-being, leaving participants with lasting memories of Catalonia’s rich cultural heritage.
