Summer open-air film festival at Montjuïc Castle, Barcelona
Sala Montjuïc is an open-air film festival that takes place at Barcelona’s Montjuïc Castle every year. Launched in 2003, the festival gives spectators the chance to enjoy live music and films in original version, and to have a picnic dinner al fresco with friends under the stars. The programme features a selection of all-time classics, as well as recent hits, auteur films and musicals. Sala Montjuïc has become a classic of Barcelona summer nights, attracting around 30,000 spectators every year.

The festival, which is aimed at family and schools audiences, pursues the goal of entertaining and educating, stimulating the imagination and encouraging creativity, as well as awakening the critical spirit. My First Festival takes place every autumn in Barcelona, Madrid and a dozen more Catalan towns and cities, acting as a showcase for recent creativity in the world of films for children, as well as a tool for learning “the cinematographic gaze” – how to enjoy movies.

The film programme combines quality hit movies with auteur films, all shown in their original version with subtitles. All this, in an easy-going, relaxed atmosphere: spectators can bring food and drink with them, have a picnic, hire loungers at the site or bring their own chairs and blankets – anything to make this the most comfortable, enjoyable experience imaginable!
