Cruïlla de Tardor

Cruïlla's autumn in Barcelona is no longer marketed under the Cruïlla de Tardor label, but the programme is still there: between 3 September and 28 December 2026, Cruïlla Concerts spreads more than twenty concerts across the city's venues and theatres, from Els Pets at the Palau de la Música to Ruslana at Razzmatazz, with two passes that let you choose three shows at a fixed price.

What has changed in 2026

Until 2025, the promoter behind the July festival presented its autumn season as a series in its own right. The 2025 edition ran from 17 October to 6 December, with Los Planetas, ZAZ and Crystal Fighters at the Sant Jordi Club or Razzmatazz and much of the programme at El Molino, as we reported in our review of that edition.

This year, the Cruïlla Concerts website groups the concerts into a single 2026-2027 season running from September to April, with no specific autumn section. In practice, the stretch up to December serves the same purpose as the old Tardor: extending the brand of the Festival Cruïlla, which this year took place from 8 to 11 July at the Parc del Fòrum, with medium and small-format concerts.

The most visible change is the prominence of the Teatre L'Aliança del Poblenou, which hosts ten concerts of the season and becomes the main venue, the role El Molino played in 2025. Audiences looking for large venues have less to choose from: the only large-capacity concert of this stretch, Trueno at the Palau Sant Jordi, already took place on 13 October.

The concerts still to come until December

Oslo Ovnies (3 September, Razzmatazz 3), Cimafunk (9 October, Paral·lel 62) and Trueno have already played. Here is what remains of the autumn, with the prices published by the organisers:

The highlights of the autumn

28 October brings together the most striking dates of the autumn and forces a choice. Els Pets close their fortieth-anniversary celebrations at the Palau with a repertoire focused on the albums left out of the first tour, which according to the organisers drew more than 120,000 people. The same night, Malian guitarist Vieux Farka Touré, son of Ali Farka Touré and a Khruangbin collaborator, plays at L'Aliança.

Santiago Auserón arrives on 23 October with Nerantzi, a project exploring Greek music and rebetiko that he shares with guitarist Theodoros Karellas and Vaggelis Tzeretas on bouzouki. With tickets from €40 to €45, it is the most expensive date of the series in Barcelona.

In December, the line-up turns more local: Mayte Martín presents Tatuajes, her boleros show, and Nyandú celebrates fifteen years on stage with a Christmas concert featuring guests.

Tickets, passes and Bono Cultural

Each concert has its own ticket, which can be bought from the Cruïlla Concerts tickets page; the Girona show is sold through the Temporada Alta festival. There is no pass for the whole autumn, but there are two options for combining dates:

• Emergentes pass (€40, three concerts): Chiquita Movida, Sobrezero, Palo Domado and Huir this autumn, plus Periferia and Sienna in 2027.
• Esenciales pass (€60, three concerts at L'Aliança): Santiago Auserón, Vieux Farka Touré, Roberto Fonseca & Vincent Segal, Zenet, Roger Mas, Patax and Mayte Martín, plus Carolina Deslandes in February.

With the Esenciales pass, three concerts work out at €20 each, compared with the €25 to €45 that this autumn's shows cost individually. The organisers accept the Bono Cultural Joven as a payment method. For the rest of the season in the region, see our listings of festivals in Catalonia.
