Modernist Meeting in Cardedeu

Once again, on the first weekend of October, Cardedeu dresses up to say goodbye to summer with a series of theatrical activities throughout the weekend that will transport you to the splendor of Cardedeu in 1900 with summer visitors who are ending their summer stay and closing their summer houses to return to their usual residence in Barcelona.

The program will combine theater, music, traditional games, family workshops, guided tours, and participatory activities. Visitors will be able to discover how families entertained themselves during the summer holidays, listen to music typical of festivals from over a hundred years ago, and participate in activities designed for both children and adults.

Modernist heritage will be a major focus. Various tours will allow visitors to explore the houses designed by Manuel Joaquim Raspall, as well as the transformation of bourgeois housing and the phenomenon of summering that profoundly shaped the development of Cardedeu. There will also be activities related to the museum and some of the town's most unique buildings.

The festival will also include circus and clown shows, dances, theatrical scenes and a modernist parade, encouraging attendees to dress in period clothing and become part of the atmosphere.

An ideal proposal to stroll through Cardedeu with a different perspective, discover its architectural heritage and relive, for a few days, the splendor and elegance of Cardedeu in 1900.

Come to Cardedeu, participate and experience summer vacations from the early 20th century. There are activities for all ages!
