Consolidated as one of the unmissable events in Barcelona during summer, Els Vespres de la UB reach their fourteenth edition with a local poster featuring a charismatic, powerful and fresh attitude. These concerts try to be a place for all audiences -in a charming and exquisite atmosphere- to show new works brought by unique projects from the emerging musical scenario.
Before every performance, from 6 p.m. on, the audience can visit the terrace with a gourmet sandwich service by Caravan Made, in the garden. The artistic direction of Els Vespres is carried out by Mireia Madroñero. Bankrobber collaborates in the production of the cycle and the concerts are sponsored by Estrella Damm.
