Site impressionnant et fierté de la communauté du football en Espagne, le Camp Nou est l'un des plus grands stades d’Europe. Terrain de résidence du célèbre FC Barcelone, mieux connu sous le nom de Barçapar la population locale, ce stade spectaculaire a été construit en 1957 sur un terrain séparé lorsque l’expansion du stade Camp de Les Corts fut jugée impossible en raison du manque d’espace. Il est également souvent qualifié de « maison construite par Kubala », en référence au buteur hongrois exceptionnel des années 1950. Ce dernier était tellement populaire hongrois auprès des spectateurs que le stade n’était pas suffisant grand pour accueillir le nombre considérable de fans qui voulaient le voir. Le Camp Nou peut quant à lui accueillir plus de 99 000 spectateurs à la fois, et est devenu une icône pour ses gradins animés, portant les couleurs bleu et rouge royales du club.

Featuring an air of striking regality that can be attributed to its historic dull rose facade, the Gran Teatre del Liceu is a longstanding symbol of Barcelona's prized culture. Perhaps the most important theater in Barcelona, the Gran Teatre del Liceu was built in 1847 as a venue for opera performances. The original building showcased a modern aesthetic designed by architects Miquel Garriga i Roca and Josep Oriol Mestres, and while the theater was rebuilt after a fire in 1994, a handful of cherished artifacts from the first structure remain. The main façade, the Hall of Mirrors, and staircase notably represent the historic Gran Teatre del Liceu as it was originally conceived. As important as ever, the new theater stays true to its roots by staging an exciting program of operas, concerts, and ballets performed by some of the most reputable companies in the world. It even houses a symphony orchestra and choir that perform throughout the year. With 2,292 seats, the Gran Teatre del Liceu is certainly grand, and it has one of the largest opera auditoriums in Europe.
