Exhibition «Barcelona and the Tour, a Good Tandem»

The exhibition «Barcelona and the Tour, a Good Tandem» offers a journey through the historic relationship between the city and cycling on the occasion of the Grand Départ del Tour de Francia 2026.

About this event

The exhibition focuses on how Barcelona has built, over time, a natural connection with this sport, from its earliest popular expressions to its consolidation as one of the great international cycling stages.

Through images, stories and references to landmark places, the exhibition traces a journey that connects the city's urban evolution with cycling culture. It is not only about major competitions, but also about the people, clubs and spaces that have helped make cycling part of Barcelona's everyday landscape.

The tour makes it possible to understand why Barcelona has been, and continues to be, a key location for the world's biggest cycling event. The arrival of the Tour in 2026 is thus presented not as an isolated fact, but as the continuation of a shared story between sport, city and citizens. A perspective that invites visitors to rediscover Barcelona through the wheel, effort and a passion for pedalling.
