  • Welcome to 'Things to Do in Barcelona' on this lovely Saturday, April 12, 2025 As you step out into the city, you'll be greeted by the mild spring weather, with temperatures hovering around a pleasant 22°C and a crisp air quality that's perfect for exploring.

    Today, Barcelona is buzzing with a variety of exciting events that cater to all interests. Here are a few key highlights:

    - If you're a beer enthusiast, the **Barcelona Beer Festival** is in full swing at the Fira Barcelona – Montjuïc from April 11 to 13. This is your chance to sample a wide range of local and international beers, enjoy live music, and savor delicious food[1].
    - For those who love comics and graphic novels, the **43rd Comic Barcelona** is taking place from April 4 to 6, but you can still catch some of the residual activities and exhibitions around the city. This event features competitions, themed exhibitions, and signing events with major international authors[3].
    - Music lovers are in for a treat as well, with various concerts happening around the city. For instance, you can enjoy the **Luis de Arquer: Solo Piano in Barcelona** at El Teatre més Petit del Món, or the **Gran Gala Flamenco: Teatro Poliorama** for a traditional flamenco show[5].

    In terms of local news, there are some exciting new restaurant openings in the Gothic Quarter, offering a mix of traditional Catalan cuisine and modern fusion dishes. Additionally, the city has announced improvements to the public transit system, including new bus routes and extended metro hours, making it even easier to navigate Barcelona.

    For must-do activities today, consider visiting the iconic **La Pedrera-Casa Milà**, another breathtaking work by Antoni Gaudí. You can admire its unique architecture from the outside or take a tour inside to explore its fascinating design[2].

    If you're looking for something more seasonal, the **Flors al Mercat (Flowers at the Market)** event on April 5 and 6 at Plaça Margarita Xirgu is a beautiful way to experience local culture. Here, you can see a variety of flowers and enjoy the festive atmosphere[1].

    For a hidden gem, take a walk through the **Gothic Quarter**, one of the oldest and most beautiful parts of the city. This area is filled with narrow streets, historic buildings, and a rich history that stretches back to Roman times[2].

    Here's a local tip: When navigating Barcelona, remember that the city is very pedestrian-friendly. Consider taking a free walking tour to get your bearings and hear some of the many legends and stories of the Catalan capital. Most walking tours work on a tipping basis, so be sure to show your appreciation for the guides[4].

    As we wrap up today's highlights, keep an eye out for tomorrow's events. The **BCN Film Fest** kicks off on April 24, but you might want to plan ahead for the **Diada de Sant Jordi (St George's Day)** on April 23, a day filled with books, roses, and a vibrant festive atmosphere throughout the city[1][3].

    Tune in tomorrow for more exciting things to do in Barcelona, and until then, enjoy the city's vibrant energy and endless possibilities
