Mercat de les Flors
After more than twenty years of history, the Barcelona public theatre of the Mercat de les Flors has entered a new period that will lead to it becoming the Consorci Mercat de les Flors/ Dance House, in a project jointly integrated to equal parts by Barcelona City Council and the Government of Catalonia with the collaboration of the Ministry of Culture.
