THE MARKET
The New Olive Oil Market was launched in 2025 to become the benchmark showcase for Catalan extra virgin olive oil.
The fair aims to boost sales of the country's highest-quality olive oil, give visibility to producers and strengthen the direct link with consumers.
This year we are organising the second edition of this market fair, open to the public and free to enter, located in Plaça Catalunya, one of Barcelona's most emblematic and busiest spaces.
As a notable new feature, this edition includes an area dedicated to Catalan honeys to showcase the quality, origin and diversity of honeys produced in the region and give greater visibility to the Catalan beekeeping sector.
In addition to the exhibition area, the fair will include:
- A food area with 5 Catalan cuisine operators
- A space with tables and chairs suitable for eating
