The DO Empordà Wine Route and Girona's gastronomy in Barcelona
The fourth Mercat de Mercats (Market of Markets) fair took place in Barcelona from 18th to 20th October. The event serves as a showcase for Catalan agro-food, wine and restaurant products. The Tourist Board took part to promote the products of the Girona area among Barcelona’s citizens and visitors, and to boost food and wine tourism in the area.
11 organisations and tourist offices from the counties of Girona took part, including the DO Empordà Wine Route. Separate gastronomy and wine cellar areas were set up within the Costa Brava and Pirineu de Girona space.
Staying in Barcelona, on the same weekend the Tourist Board took part in the Súpers Festival for children organised by the Catalan TV3 channel with a 200 m2 space, where it promoted the Costa Brava and Pirineu de Girona with an information point and a series of children’s activities.
