Eating at Parc del Fòrum: Primmmavera

Primmmavera is more than a gastronomic proposal: it is an artistic-culinary lineup for all tastes, needs and pockets. Thanks to Verbena Foodie, the festival thus consolidates its commitment to the variety of proposals with food trucks, the new Barcelona Street Food Restaurants (with 20 restaurants from the city) and a new pop-up venue located in the Casa Primavera that each day will become a different and once-only restaurant. In total the festival will offer 50 different culinary proposals aimed at satisfying the demands of all the members of the audience.

Casa Primavera, located in the Primavera Bits area, will host three exceptional chefs during the main days of the festival, who will organize tailor-made gourmet set menus. The festival will welcome Diego Guerrero (DSTAgE) on Saturday 2nd June, the Mexican chef Eduardo ‘Lalo’ García (Máximo Bistrot) on Friday 1st June and Douglas McMaster (Silo) on Thursday 31st May. In order to achieve the full potential of the experience, there will also be an option of food and wine pairing courtesy of Wineissocial and their sommelier César Cánovas.
