You could combine your holiday in Barcelona with this unique event. Just get tickets and book a cheap accommodation in Barcelona with us. You will have great days in the city!
The Italian singer already started his tour on the 21st of October 2009 in Rimini and will continue until April 2010. One stop will be Barcelona in the Palau Sant Jordi on the Montjuic mountain. With his Alie Radici World Tour he also presents his new studio album which is called the same. It is his eleventh album he had produced and contains 11 self-written songs. The whole new music is quite different than the last produced songs. The topics are more meaningful now than in the last years. The topics are beside love, the destruction of the world and the lack of communication between people. eros-ramazzotti-20051102-81938.jpgYou can divide the album in two different musical parts. One is lively and full of instruments and the other is affected by electronical sound by Michele Canova, who has worked on this kind of songs with Eros.
You can get an idea by yourself if you will attend the concert. So just get tickets and enjoy a great happening in a special atmosphere of Barcelona!

Green Day live in concert

If you are staying in one of the many beautiful holiday homes Barcelona or in another Barcelona Apartment and have any free time you should definitely try to get some tickets for the coming concert of Green Day. It will take place on the 1st of October in Palau Sant Jordi. Experience a great and extraordinary event in a special environment. ber11607021533_widec.jpg
After 22 years since the band existed Green Day is one of the most important punk bands in America. One of the reasons for the great success is that the guys are real and won´t do anything because anybody thinks it would be better. They stayed themselves and don´t care to criticize the government or politicians. The band was created in 1989 from Billie Joes Armstrong and Mike Dirnt who are still in the band. Later Tre Cool adjoined them.
green_day_21st_century_breakdown.jpgTheir latest album 21st Century Break is finished now and available. The songs tell a story about a young couple who try to find their way nowadays in the new century.
So if you want to enjoy the great old songs and experience the new songs, coming to Barcelona and see Green Day live in concert!

If you haven't already planned a holiday in the city, come to Barcelona and combine a holiday in Barcelona with the Coldplay concert.

The band was formed in 1996 in London by band members Chris Martin, Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland and Will Champion. After years of doing gigs in little clubs in Camden they finally had commercial success with their in 2000 released album "Parachutes". Soon after this their second album "A Rush of Blood to the Head" was released which was even more successful than their debut album. With their third album "X&Y" Coldplay could keep up with the huge success of the first two albums. After a little break they finally came back with "Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends" which was co-produced by Brian Eno.

The Viva-la-Vida-Tour started in 2008 and finally Coldplay are coming to Barcelona. Get ready for a massive concert in the Estadi Olímpic on the 4th of September!
