Chinese New Year at the Time Out Market

China lands at the Time Out Market in Barcelona to celebrate the Chinese New Year with regional food, traditional performances, Chinese martial arts, children’s activities, and much more, on February 1, from 12:00 to 14:00 and from 16:00 to 18:00.

As a proper gastronomic market, food takes center stage, and throughout the day, you’ll be able to enjoy typical dishes for the occasion at special prices. There will be a tasting of butifarra dumplings from Casa Guinart with Dr. Zhang (€5 for 3 pieces) and a tasting of Sichuan-style spicy sauce bravas from Bar Nuri with Casa Panda (€5). A burst of flavors that will transport you straight to Asia!

The day kicks off in the morning with an exciting show: the lion and dragon will make an energetic appearance, dancing around the space to the sound of traditional Chinese music. After the performance, you’ll be able to enjoy a photocall session with these impressive creatures. From 13:00 to 14:00, the whole family can take part in a kungfu workshop suitable for all levels.

If you miss the morning lion and dragon parade, don’t worry! At 16:00, the Chinese lion and dragon parade will make a return. But the fun doesn’t stop there: from 17:00 to 18:00, in four different areas –the main stage, the Xaloc terrace, the Paradiso terrace, and the Damm area– various Chinese martial arts exhibitions will take place in rotation. Students and masters, in collaboration with the Instituto De Wu Shu, will offer short 10-minute shows. A mesmerizing sequence of performances that you can enjoy alongside the market’s sea views and all the delicious gastronomic corners the venue has to offer!
