MIRA, the Barcelona digital arts festival, will celebrate its 11th edition on Friday 11th and Saturday 12th of November. As a novelty, the festival changes location and for the first time it will be held at Fira de Montjuïc, the large venue located in the center of Barcelona.
The room will be more than 12.000 m² in total, double the space we had previously. This will expand the festival’s line–up and all the activities that define it since its first edition which will be open until 5:30 a.m.: a main stage with large-format live audiovisual shows -shows that combine top-level music and visual arts- and a second stage with live sets and DJ sessions, as well as other premises with artistic proposals that go beyond music, such as the MIRA Dome by Bershka -the 360º dome, focused on immersive projects in fulldome format, and an area with large-format art installations.
