The sixth edition of Barcelona Knits is being held on the 18th and 19th of November 2023 at the World Trade Center in Barcelona. There will be a number of knit and crochet workshops at the event, in English or Spanish. These will be announced the last week of June and tickets for the workshops will be on sale from the first week of July on the Barcelona Knits website.
Tour Notes: You will need to have a reasonable level of fitness to get the most out of this holiday. On excursion days you will need to walk a short distance from the hotel/ship to the coach and you should be able to board the coach unaided. On arrival at the excursion destination, you should be able to alight the coach unaided and there may be a walk between the coach drop off point and the excursion venue. By their nature, walking tours, museum visits etc involve being on your feet for a significant amount of time. Whilst our excursions are taken at a leisurely pace, for the enjoyment of everyone in the group you should be able to keep up with your fellow travellers.
Accommodation
You still stay for five nights at the 4-star Hotel Evenia Rosselló
