On the 5th and 6th of October, 11 am to 2 pm and 4 pm to 7.30 pm.
Access to all activities is free. In case of limited places, they will be assigned on a first come first served basis. If registration is needed, the same will apply.
The only difference is you’ll need an umbrella and a little stroll to the alternative spaces, where the fair as well as the activities will then take place (Town Hall Square Arcades, Sant Julià Old Hospital, Cúria Real Cultural Space and Cal Tronc Theatre). Don’t panic! Everything is less than a 2'-3' walk away!
Probably kids won’t feel like poking around books all day long, that’s why we have arranged a small playground on the square, and loads of fun family activities too! Find out more on the “Families”.
CASH POINT: They are all at a 3-minute walk from the fair, at Avinguda President Companys: Banco Popular (no. 3), BBVA (no. 4), "la Caixa" (no. 15) and Banco Sabadell (no. 19).
