This multi-purpose facility, located on Montjuïc in Barcelona, was constructed on the occasion of the 1992 Olympic Games. It’s considered the gem of the Montjuïc Olympic Ring, which also comprises arenas like the Olympic Stadium and the Pirornell Pools.

With an audience capacity of 18,000, Sant Jordi is the city’s most frequented Olympic facility, playing host to tons of sporting events, concerts, and special functions.

Palau Sant Jordi was inaugurated on September 21, 1990, two years before the Barcelona Olympic Games got underway. Today, it’s still one of the city’s masterpieces of architecture and modern engineering. Its designer, Japanese architect Arata Isozaki, made the most of mechanization in rendering the facility’s structural elements, making it flexible enough to accommodate all sorts of functions and limitless configurations.

Sant Jordi Club

Spanning 2,900 square meters, with capacity for 3,000, this venue is used for small and mid-size events. It also features food and snacks, access for those with limited mobility, parking, and VIP services.

  • Espectacular

    Se construyo para las olimpiadas del 92. Esta en lo alto de la montaña de monjuich. Fue durante años el estadio del FC Barcelona de basket. Las vista desde este punto son espectaculares. Se ve gran parte de la ciudad. Se puede llegar desde la plaza de España por unas escaleras mecánicas o bien en autobus. Si se sube a pie, hay diferentes paradas obligatorias a hacer (fuente de colores, castillo, etc)

Areas of barcelona Sants-Montjuïc

Sants-Montjuïc, located on the southern end of the city, is Barcelona’s largest district, abutting the municipalities El Hospitalet de Llobregat and El Prat del Llobregat. It comprises various neighborhoods, each with its own character, like the formerly industrial areas of Sants, Hostafrancs, Poble-sec, and La Bordeta, as well as the port area and the Zona Franca Customs Authority. And it’s home to one of Barcelona’s most popular green spaces, the mountain of Montjuïc, crowned by a castle that defended the city’s coast in times past.
