The Port Vell celebrates Christmas again at the Moll de Bosch i Alsina, better known as Moll de la Fusta, which will be transformed into a starry sky. The carefully designed Christmas decoration will unite land and sea, and its main element will be a giant Christmas ball.
In addition to the lighting installations, the Port Fair offers visitors every day musical performances by schools, choirs and other organizations from the neighborhoods located next to the port; a 65-meter Ferris wheel; a traditional merry-go-round; and a flea market with stalls and gastronomy. And every day, at 5:30 p.m., a light show will start at the rhythm of the music. But that's not all, the Christmas Fair at the Port Vell will also have a solidarity section to collect food for the needy.
