Barcelona Pre and Post Match Entertainment : Thu Jun 18, 2009 3:20 pm  

The Dragons fans are meeting on the Ramblas at 13.00 for the official photo at Font de Cameletes. At the stadium before the game the Castellers will be forming their human pyramid http://castellersdebarcelona.cat/ The sacred flame of St Jean will be brought onto the pitch. The 23 June is the feast of St Jean and is always well celebrated in French and Spanish Catalonia http://www.anglophone-direct.com/Les-fe ... Saint-Jean After the game there will be a giant tent (Bodega) like the one we have in Perpignan. Entrance is free and you can buy paella for 8€, hot and cold sandwiches 4€ and drinks 3€. I believe there will also be a giant screen at the ground. Enjoy your weekend in Barcelona!

Jammy sods, Barca in June, and the Wire too. If you get a chance to go down to the old harbour its great down there though the food is pricey. I'm at a wedding in Scotland on my best behaviour!!!!!!

we are travelling down from cap salou, first plan is to get the train there before dinner time ish, and train back... if the last train is missed from sants the bus station is there too and the last bus is eleven oclock, which surely to god we cant miss...

the departure times from barcelona are tricky they have 3 stations if you head to barcelona sants estacion you should get a bit of leway time...
