Sitges in September

Don’t let anyone tell you that Sitges is a one season town. Whilst in October Sitges takes on a more relaxed and intimate ambiance, bars such as El Horno, Oreks, B-Side, LocaCola, Privilege and Azul are always busy.

Sitges Film Festival

The Sitges International Film Festival takes place next weekend. The festival revolves around the Hotel Melia and is more of an industry event than a tourist one, however if Sci-Fi and Horror movies are your thing, then there are some great movies being premiered this year. Check out the official website where you can purchase advance tickets. As always Gay Sitges Guide will let you know if any cute actors are to be in attendance!

Why we love Sitges…

Sitges Bands

One of the reasons we love Sitges so much is that you never know what to expect from day to day. There’s always a festival, event or activity that you will come accross somewhere. Yesterday Sitges was treated to the sounds of Los Teoporos…. a fantastic brass band.

Sitges Bands

The band are touring around Barcelona at the moment. They are made up of the medical students of a college in Bordeaux and their sound is truly unique! They played first on San Sebastian beach before heading into the town square where people danced on the steets to some of the most upbeat sounds we’ve heard all Summer. Visit Sitges… you’ll never know what you might discover!

Balmins to benefit from EUR 6 Million Promenade

/in /by

Balmins Beach

Any of you who have been to Sitges and visited the popular mixed-nudist-beach at Balmins will know that its not the easiest beach to find. Although its only about 10 minutes walk from the centre of town, there are a number of detours involved.

Balmins Beach

That is all set to change over the next year as the council embark on a EUR 6 million plan to develop a promenade leading all the way to Balmins and beyond, making access to this part of the town and the port further on, that much easier.

And for those of you visiting this week, the beaches were busy again this Monday! Check out the beaches section on Gay Sitges Guide for full details of all the beaches in Sitges.
