Llum BCN is an annual light art festival held in Barcelona, Spain. It is celebrated since 2012 every February in Barcelona's neighborhood Poblenou. It features a series of light installations and shows.




Concept


Llum BCN, Light Barcelona in English, extends across various key points in the Poblenou neighborhood, starting at the Design Museum of Barcelona at Plaça de les Glòries Catalanes. The installations are spread across the neighborhood and are visible from nightfall until midnight. The 2024 festival edition expands with a new axis, including spaces such as the Teatre Nacional de Catalunya, L'Auditori, and the Encants market.
Large historic buildings, old factory chimneys and industrial plants, but also the modern Torre Glòries are illuminated by large-scale projections and audio-visual displays in the Poblenou neighborhood. Many of the festival's light displays include the use of technology such as virtual reality and AI.




Artists


Llum BCN has featured artists such as Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Julio Le Parc, Luke Jerram, Ulf Langheinrich, United Visual Artists, Kurt Hentschlager, Trevor Paglen, Chila Kumari Burman, Vera Molnár and Catalonia's Antoni Arola as well as local schools of art, design, illumination, and architecture.
