Spring is one of the most attractive times to discover Girona. During these months, the city transforms and offers a unique combination of cultural activities, deep-rooted traditions and natural surroundings that invite visitors to enjoy it at a slower pace.
Season highlights
The Strenes Festival marks the beginning of the musical spring. From late March to early May, Girona becomes a key destination for live music, with concerts held in iconic venues such as the Auditorium and different spots across the historic centre. Many artists choose this festival to present their new work for the first time, making each performance especially unique.
On April 23rd, Girona celebrates Sant Jordi, one of the most beloved traditions in Catalonia. The streets fill with books and roses, creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere. It is the perfect day to wander around, join cultural activities and meet authors.
In May, Temps de Flors transforms the old town into a large artistic space. For several days, flowers blend with heritage in creative installations, while opening doors to usually closed spaces such as private courtyards and historic interiors.
More than an exhibition, it offers a different way to experience the city, encouraging a slower and more detailed exploration.
Other ways to enjoy Girona
Beyond events, spring is also ideal for exploring the surroundings. The Greenways (Vies Verdes) offer accessible routes on foot or by bike, perfect for discovering natural landscapes at a relaxed pace.
Nearby, you can visit places such as La Garrotxa, with its volcanic landscapes; Lake Banyoles, ideal for unwinding; or the Costa Brava, perfect for adding the sea to your trip.
