(English) All the musical greats love Barcelona
What do Bruno Mars, Madonna, U2, AC/DC, Kiss, Maroon 5, Roxette, Robbie Williams and Ariana Grande all have in common? Well, besides being huge musical stars, they’ve all chosen Barcelona as a stop on their world tours. A succession of top-class events that are sure to attract thousands upon thousands of people from all over Spain, as well as other European countries, to soak up Barcelona’s thriving music scene.
Without doubt, the Madonna and U2 concerts are shaping up to be the music events of the year, given that Barcelona is the only Spanish city to play host to their fantastic new shows. The city has certainly become an unmissable calling point on big world tours, thanks in part to its close proximity to other European capitals and the enormous capacity at Palau Sant Jordi, with 18,000 seats in the stadium. In the same way, the huge success artists have enjoyed with their gigs in the city over recent years is just another incentive to come back. Furthermore, the fantastic and wide range of high-quality hotels on offer only serves to further increase Barcelona’s draw over recent years.
Another of the advantages visitors to Barcelona’s music scene can enjoy is the wide range of age ranges its concerts attract. Madonna, U2 and AC/DC have amply demonstrated that they can attract music lovers from their twenties to their fifties and beyond. Equally, you’ll see huge numbers of music-obsessed teenagers flocking to the city as young star Ariana Grande has chosen Barcelona as her Spanish stopping point on her ‘Honeymoon Tour’.
