Investment for the future

The Port, built in 2004 for the Universal Forum of Cultures with the most innovative technology, which was typical of that project, is a combination of a harbour and a leisure quarter.

On the boundary between Sant Adrià de Besòs and Barcelona, it stands out for its modern architecture and dry dock system for storing and preserving boats, the first of its kind in Spain.

Culture harbour

Besides being somewhere different to go shopping or for a night out, the Port has proved a very successful venue for sports and cultural events. Notable examples of this have been the second BCNswim, the Urban Suzuki Experience and the Barcelona Beach Festival, which attracted over 25,000 people. Set to open soon is Amnesia, a huge disco designed by the architect Jean Nouvel. This architecturally very ambitious project aims to make it one of the top night clubs in Barcelona.
