    The Greek Theatre, enjoy the Festival Grec in Summer

    The Greek Theatre (also known in Catalan as theTeatre Grec) in Barcelona is located on the mountain of Montjuic. The outdoor theatre was designed by architect Ramon Reventós who based his design on the theatre of Epidaurus. It was built for the International Exposition of Barcelona in 1929. The theatre welcomes around 1.900 spectators on its surface of 460 m2. In 1976 the council opened the first Festival Grec (Greek Festival). It has since been held every year except in1979.

    Currently its use is limited almost exclusively to this festival in the summer when you can enjoy theater, dance and concerts.
