First swim of 2026
Celebrating New Year by swimming in the cool sea... Only Barcelona’s bravest residents can do this. Start the year with bright memories!
About this event
Imagine you have just turned the calendar to 2026 and welcomed January. Now you run across the white sand towards the winter sea waves. It is a great way to celebrate, isn’t it?
Every year, several hundred brave people take part in the first swim of the year. Join them this year!
To take part, you have to register and arrive at Sant Sebastià beach at 12:00 on 1 January.
Participation in the event is not free, as this is not the first year that the event has been held in support of TraCe, the Catalan Association for Traumatic Brain Injury and Brain Damage.
