The venue
The Magic Fountain of Montjuïc, located in Plaça de Carles Buïgas, is a monumental relic of Barcelona's 1929 International Exposition. Designed by engineer Carles Buïgas, its construction in less than a year drew thousands of workers. Conceived as the visual epicenter of the event, this light and water spectacle featured an advanced hydraulic and electrical system for its time. Today, it remains a central axis connecting Plaça d'Espanya and the Palau Nacional, offering a complex interplay of jets, lighting, and, since the seventies, music. Its elliptical design, 65 by 59 meters, houses a system of 120 rotating prisms and 19 main jets, showcasing functionality that, decades later, still defines Montjuïc's urban landscape.
