Pilar de Caixes at Festa Major Horta

During Barcelona's Festa Major Horta, the neighborhood celebrates with a traditional 'Pilar de caixes' — a human tower built from wooden boxes. This Catalan cultural practice brings locals and visitors together in the heart of Horta, where the square fills with spectators cheering on the castellers as they carefully stack the boxes and climb to form the tower.

Attendees can expect a lively, community-driven atmosphere with the rhythmic music of gralles and tabals accompanying the tower-building. The event is a chance to witness a deeply rooted Catalan tradition up close, surrounded by the festive energy of the neighborhood's annual celebration.
