With the summer comes many options for open-air city cinema, but none are as original and cosy as Mecal Air. Mecal is Barcelona’s International Short Film Festival and it is usually held in April at select cinemas around the city. It hosts a selection of international and animation short films, video clips, obscure films, etc.
Its summer version, which started very sucessfully last year, is held in an open-air terrace inside the unbelievable venue of Poble Espanyol. This year’s themes include Freak out!, Japan or OK Computer, and there’s a bar offering drinks and barbecue.
Bring your picnic or stroll around Poble Espanyol before or after the movies for one of the best plans for a summer’s night.
• Mecal Air (see on map), Marques de Comillas, 13, Montjuich. €2 with flyer. Open Fri 8.30pm – midnight (Jun – Aug).
