Digital arts. Stars and silent rhythms, in an immersive open-air projection that reinterprets the classic imagery of Christmas and, in addition, changes colour on specific days.

The long-awaited celebration is here, which, based on the traditional imagery, is once again reimagined. This year, in our square, the stars and the cosmos embrace us in a warm return of light to the city.

Christmas, beyond the spirit of the solstice, is the cradle of numerous traditions that celebrate light. A splendour that returns to Barcelona, scaling the two emblematic buildings in the square, highlighting their architectural details, in harmonious dialogue with each other and merging with the celestial dome. We will feel how the light cadence and silent rhythms evoke a subtle and emotional symphony that will resonate within us.

A living projection that also transforms the most special days of the Christmas season through colour on the evenings of 24, 25 and 31 December and 1 and 5 January. 

A celebration open to everyone in a square transformed into an immersive open-air experience. 

Continuous and silent projection of light on the façades of Barcelona City Hall and the Generalitat de Catalunya, in Plaça de Sant Jaume.
