The Olympic Barcelona for your audiovisual productions

Barcelona was transformed with the Olympics. It was modernized, embellished. The Olympic port, Montjuic, the Forum… new spaces that have turned Barcelona into a reference tourist city, a capital of opportunities, initiatives and locations of all kinds for your audiovisual production or photographic shooting.

The year 2017 has been a great year at sport level in the city. In fact, it has been a very special year clearly marked by the commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the Olympic and Paralympic Games of Barcelona ’92.

25 Years ago, the city experienced the best sporting moment of its history, and the last year we have celebrated it with hundreds of events and activities to highlight everything that happened in the summer of 1992.

Olympic port

The Olympic port is especially built for the Olympic Games and was the emblem of one of the other main objectives: opening the city to the sea. Sportingly it hosted the Vela competition and it became a marina since then, a good location for your audiovisual production or photographic shooting.

Pavilion of the Sea

This sports complex consists basically of two constructions: the pavilion itself, which is a rectangular-shaped facility with a multipurpose sports court and the athletics track with its corresponding turf field. During the Olympic Games of ’92, its capacity was increased to 4.000 seats to be able to host the Olympic Badminton competition.

In the Zona de la Vall d’Hebron

Field of Archery

The space housed two football fields, a rugby field and a service area. From the artistic point of view, what stood out were the buildings destined to house the changing rooms, the sanitary block, the warehouse and the rest areas.
