Croissant Fest

On 22 and 23 February, Poble Espanyol will host the first festival devoted to the croissant; it will pay tribute to the croissant and puff pastry in general. The city's best bakeries will be present, and visitors will be able to enjoy the best croissant in all of Barcelona.

The organisers confirmed the presence of the city's best bakeries and that admission will be free and open to all ages; there will also be a paid Gourmet ticket including a croissant and a drink. Although the event will focus on the croissant, there will also be other products.

The aim of Croissant Fest will be to choose the city's best croissant, in its most traditional version and its most gourmet version. The winners will be chosen by a popular jury, who will be able to try the products at the various stalls in the venue, and a professional jury whose members are not yet known.
