Exciting school music tour to cultural Barcelona and the sunny Costa Brava!

The Costa Brava has retained its authentic Spanish character and its location, with Barcelona at the southern tip, means the city sights are just a short journey away. Visit the famous Sagrada Familia, enjoy a fun-filled day at a local water park and, most importantly, enjoy performing in exciting and memorable venues,such as Barcelona Cathedral and the Montserrat Monastery!
