Festival Grec 2023: programming for all audiences
This year’s edition presents a diverse program with a total of 88 shows. Different artistic disciplines are covered, such as theater, dance, music, circus and hybrid formats.
In addition, it is noteworthy that most of the shows have been created or directed by women, demonstrating the importance of female visibility and participation in the art world.
Among the shows to be enjoyed at the Grec 2023, there is a selection of ten must-sees worth mentioning.
These include circus, choral music, dance, theater and hybrid formats that offer a wide variety of artistic experiences.
The presence of the circus has been enhanced this year, doubling its presence in the program and offering exciting and captivating shows.
Tickets for the festival can be purchased through the official website of the Grec Festival.
It is advisable to purchase tickets in advance, as the festival is usually in high demand and tickets can sell out quickly.
Diversity of scenarios
The Grec 2023 will take place both at the Teatre Grec and in other venues around the city. This distribution makes it possible to offer a wider and more diverse programming, avoiding the concentration of all the shows in one place.
Barcelona landmarks, such as Passeig de Gràcia, Hospital de Sant Pau, Dipòsit del Rei Martí and the former prison La Model, will serve as stages for some of the festival’s shows.
It is important to note that more than 55% of the Grec 2023 productions have been created or directed by women, reflecting the growing presence and prominence of women in the cultural and artistic sphere.
This inclusion is fundamental to promote equal opportunities and the recognition of female talent in all disciplines.
Tickets for the shows can also be purchased at the Oficina Ciudadana de Cultura (OCCU) located at the Palacio de la Virreina in La Rambla and at the box offices of the performance venues.
