Accommodation
One of the things we enjoy the most about the Experimental Photo Festival is the camaraderie and horizontality in the exchanges that take place between all the members of our community. To enhance this feeling, we have coordinated with the University of Barcelona to be able to have 300 beds in a large student residence where we can all be together. This year our association will manage the residence and that will reduce the price of accommodation.

14 workers
62 workshops

5 portfolio reviews
with 4 international curators

The participants and artists of the festival will be able to stay in the Col·legi Major Penyafort-Montserrat which is in the university area of the city. University students who are doing their degrees live in this residence during the year and in summer it is used to house participants in major cultural events. It consists of two large equal buildings with five floors: in the basement are the gymnasium, the cinema and the conference room; on the ground floor are the entrance, cafeteria, terrace and breakfast room; and from floors 2 to 5, the rooms. We believe that it will be a great space to share among all.

​
- The reservation of the accommodation is independent of the purchase of the festival ticket.
- People who do not come to the festival can stay in the residence if they accompany people who do.
- There is an area with a paid washing machine available (5 euros) and parking (5 euros per day and vehicle).

For those who want a better room, the residence has double rooms with air conditioning and individual bathroom for 100 euros per night (50 euros per person), much better than any hotel downtown. These reservations are managed directly by the residence by email. We ask that you write directly to them with the reservation information when you are sure that you want to stay there to facilitate the management.
