Everything you want to know

It's an experience that combines a cultural walk through Barcelona, stories about chess in Catalonia, tapas and games in a relaxed atmosphere.

The activity lasts about 2 hours: one hour of walking and a final hour with tapas, a drink and chess at Bar 64.

The meeting point is the Arc de Triomf, a very central and well-connected spot.

The route runs from the Arc de Triomf to Bar 64, passing through different corners of the Parc de la Ciutadella and the Parc de l'Estació del Nord. Along the way we'll discover stories of Barcelona and the role of chess in Catalonia, before finishing with tapas, a drink and games of chess.
