Regarding COVID-19- 

Due to the arise of the latest variant of the times, we have delayed the Interop until early May. While we still heavily encourage in-person attendance, we will once again provide for a remote connection (for the working-group meetings only obviously.)

Transportation

To Barcelona

To hotel: Sant Cugat is well-situated with access to the heart of Barcelona for €1 each way, and trains that run every 5 minutes ro so. Taxi may be the easiest option directly from the Airport, but could cost €60 or more.

By car: 

Parking may be difficult in the centrum as traffic has been under limits there, unless you have local parking arrangements. Public transportation or taxi is likely preferable. 

By air:

Arrival at BCN Barcelona Pratt Airport
https://www.barcelona-airport.com

Public transportation from Airport (information about a regular train is available to several destinations in downtown Barcelona from this link):
https://www.barcelona-tourist-guide.com/en/airport/transport/barcelona-airport-train.html

Weather

Typically around 20+º C (70-75º F) degrees with sunshine. Weather should be nearly perfect this time of year.




Evening Social event:

We will begin with a brief gathering in the lobby. and go to the centrum of Barcelona for a much-esteemed guided tour by Chris, and a tour of the Barcino Roman History Museum. We will complete the evening at a restaurant, and those who feel adventurous can explore what Barcelona downtown has to offer, or go back to Sant Cugat on regular trains that run frequently until midnight.
