This is the 28th edition of the Bike & Skate Festival. This is not a competition, it is just a festivity so family and friends can have fun and make a trip of few kilometers around the city of Barcelona.

Last year there were 15 thousand participants and the organizers expect that this year will be more. After the trip, there is going to be a big party at Montjuic mountain with activities such as spectacular exhibitions of the 11 times champion of the world of Bike Trial, Cesar Cañas; workshops and kids games; kids circuits; the traditional Fair, and many more.

This festival will be also a supportive festival. And the fact is that by second consecutive year the Bike & Skate Festival will participate with the NGO Active Africa collaborating in the recollection of material and spare parts for bicycles.
