Location and Directions
How to get to the festival:
By metro, the most convenient stations are Fira (L9), Foc (L10 Sud) or Magòria-La Campana (L8, FGC trains), combined with a short walk or bus ride towards the industrial area near Montjuïc. By bus, you can use lines such as H16, V3 or 23 and get off at stops close to Passeig de la Zona Franca and Carrer del Plom. By taxi, give the exact address Carrer del Plom 1, 08038 Barcelona and mention that you’re going to the industrial area near Montjuïc so they can drop you right at the entrance.
By car, park directly in front of the venue or on the surrounding streets (Carrer del Plom and nearby areas). Free street parking is generally abundant in this industrial zone.
If street parking is full (which is uncommon), the large Fira Gran Via paid car parks (more than 4,500 spaces) are only a 5–7 minute walk away.
