THE VENUE
Nestled in Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, Mercat Ninot goes beyond its market function. Its name harks back to the figurehead that, in the late 19th century, overlooked a local tavern—a social heart of the neighborhood. The iron structure, a listed Cultural Asset of Local Interest, dates to 1933, a work by Falguera and Vilaseca. The 2010-2015 renovation, led by Josep Lluís Mateo, preserved its original skeleton, with perforated slat facades regulating natural light. A two-story underground expansion for logistics and parking solidifies its urban and functional relevance.
