From the 12th June to the 28th August 2009 has been taking place this years Mecal Air in the Poble Espanyol in Barcelona. Mecal Air has been created as a series of outdoor short film and sushi evenings by The International Short Film Festival of Barcelona called MECAL, and Poble Espanyol. It takes place every friday evenings from 20.00 to 24.00.
From tomorrow on there are only 3 times left in this year to enjoy an exclusive chill out area where you can lay back in a hammock whilst enjoying the entertainment and Japanese bites in the fresh air. There is always a bar and with each drink you get a free sushi or you can buy a whole variety.
In the district of Monjtuïc, Poble Espanyol lies just apart from the magic fountains. It is basically an open-air museum of architecture on the Monjtuïc mountain. El Poble Espanyol – The Spanish Village in Barcelona is an open air museum in Barcelona with 40 handicraft shops and a number of excellent restaurants and bars. Constructed in 1929 for the Barcelona International Exhibition, Josep Puig i Cadafalch, the famous modernist Catalan architect and designer, thought up the idea. Essentially meant to represent a town of architecture, culture from all around Spain and style, Poble Espanyol is just over 40,000m². That is around about 2500 times smaller than Barcelona city. Ideality was a predominant point in designing this museum, with a perspective on what an ideal Spanish village would look like, with the best and most traditionally spanish characteristics rolled into one to create this architectural wonder. Over 110 buildings line many streets and squares all produced to scale.
Today the Poble Espanyol is also used for events and festivals and What’s a better way to spend a summer night than short films and sushi under the stars in Barcelona?
The best way to reach the place is to take the bus number 13, 50 or 61 or the PM bus.

Interesting! I’m sure not everyone would agree with your points on designing my own website but then we all do things differently. I think Mecal Air 2009 | Flats in Barcelona brought up some valid issues.
