Fodor's Expert Review El Mercat de les Flors

An old flower market converted into a modern performance space, theater, and dance school, the Mercat de Les Flors forms part of the Institut de Teatre and is set on lovely, expansive grounds at the foot of Montjuïc. Modern dance is the Mercat's raison d’être, and it remains one of the few theaters in Spain that is exclusively dedicated to contemporary dance. The on-site bar-restaurant, La Soleá, is ideal or pre- or post-performance drinks and tapas or pintxos, as well as other dishes.
