What's on at the Market?

Time Out Fest, Time Out Barcelona’s premier food festival, is celebrating its sixth anniversary this year with three action-packed days. Ten of the city’s top restaurants will each showcase an exclusive creation—available only during the festival—featuring local Catalan produce as the star ingredient. Plus, the entire weekend will be buzzing with DJ sets, tastings, workshops, and plenty of surprises.

New for this year, we’re playing on our home turf: the festival will be held at Time Out Market Barcelona. As you know, the Market brings the city’s best culinary talents together under one roof, offering stunning sea views from the second floor of the Maremagnum.
We’ve also moved the dates up, so clear your calendars for March 13, 14, and 15. The kitchens will be open non-stop from 5 PM to 1 AM on Friday, and from 10 AM to midnight on Saturday and Sunday.

We’re here to give your taste buds a treat! Alongside world-class chefs, the lineup includes a packed schedule of DJs and musical bingo, as well as free workshops, tastings, and family-friendly activities.

Do you all want to put your wine connoisseur skills to the test? Join us at Time Out Market Barcelona for a blind tasting by Petit Celler and Familia Torres for only €6.

On March 19th, from 7.30 to 10.15 PM (3 sessions of 45 minutes), you’ll taste 3 wines blind and together we’ll discover their most surprising aromas and flavors. Plus, at the end of the activity, a bottle of Familia Torres wine will be raffled among all participants. Book your spot here!

Looking for the perfect post-lunch plan? How about a swing session to get you moving? It’s on the house (completely free and open to everyone!). All you need to do is book your spot here.

On Sunday, March 8th and 22th, from 6 PM to 8 PM, our Main Stage will be turning up the rhythm. Enjoy a post-meal stroll—swing style—with a special set by Aitor from SwingCats. Whether you’re a regular on the dancefloor or have never tried a single step, this session is designed for everyone to join in, totally pressure-free.

Winter calls for jazz, and we didn’t want to miss out on bringing that festive soundscape to the Market. That’s why, on March 27th at 8 PM, we’re inviting you to a free concert featuring two outstanding musicians who bring strings and wind together in unison: the piano in the hands of Lídia Facerías, and the voice and trumpet guided by Memi Sillah. You just need to reserve a spot here (and if you wish, you can add a drink with chips for 6 euros).

The pianist from the traditional folk group Roba Estesa and the soul band Soundara Collective will let her fingers travel through jazz filigrees, joined by singer and trumpet player Sillah, who leads her own band and is used to sprinkling Jamaican rhythms over the harmonies of the American genre. A slightly more spiced and distinctive jazz concert that will brighten your evening as they move up and down between scales.

Ready to turn up the heat? Every Saturday from 7 PM to 10 PM (except Saturday March 14th), Time Out Market is transforming into the city’s ultimate dancefloor. We’re cranking up the music so you can shake it off and truly let loose.

Entry is completely free and open to everyone—whether you're a pro or just want to soak up the vibes. Plus, we’ve got you covered on the Time Out Market stage, so you can dance the night away while staying cozy and warm away from the winter chill. See you on the floor!
