The consumer demand for organic goods, as well as the widespread consciousness of healthy lifestyle practices has led to an increase in venues that provide just that. Whether in the form of food shops, cold pressed juices, or meditation studios, this trend is apparent in Barcelona as much as in any other major city around the world. Fitness and superfood options and trends are followed as closely as the juiciest gossip imaginable, and us consumers like to stay in the loop.
Catering to this wish is the first edition of an Organic Festival (festival ORGÀNIC) coming to Barcelona on the 15th and 16th of October. With a focus on all things natural, the event will be held at the Maritime Museum. Featuring cooking demonstrations and holding yoga and meditation workshops, the festival aims to start a conversation amongst the attendees about healthy living, organic produce, and that coveted clean lifestyle. Events are abundant, with experienced guest speakers discussing health, nutrition, and cooking, amongst other things. Whether you just want to relax with a cup of green tea or partake in some meditating exercises, all options are open to visitors.
Autumn calls for a health overhaul. It is an opportunity to replace those beers and ice creams with trips to the gym and vegetable soups. The perfect way to get started on that health kick is to surround yourself with like minded people and experts. Whether you are already a healthy living expert or a tentatively interested newbie, Festival ORGANIC is there for you to explore! Browse the website and choose the activities you wish to take part in, and this can be a wonderful way to dip your toes in the Barcelona health scene.
Tickets on the door will be €10, and €8 if bought in advance here.
Entrance: Saturday and Sunday 15-16 October from 11:00h-21:00h.
Address: Museu Maritim, Av. de les Drassanes
