Carme Ruscalleda and Martín Berasategui among 2025 Passeig de Gourmets chefs

Catalan chef Carme Ruscalleda, Spanish chef Martín Berasategui, and even Madrid-born Rodrigo de la Calle will participate in the 2025 edition of the Passeig de Gourmets experience in Barcelona.

From March 13 to March 23, the ten-day event will see 19 different restaurants "to make Barcelona's most sybarites enjoy" during the eighth edition of the food festival.

This year's edition is also part of the 2025 World Region of Gastronomy campaign, which sees Catalonia promote its cuisine worldwide. This means that the Passeig de Gràcia boulevard becomes a "food destination, accompanied by culture, fashion, and luxury, among many other things."

Ruscalleda highlighted that "when spring arrives, it means Passeig de Gourmets is back, with a better edition that adds quality to the boulevard." "Passeig de Gràcia is one of the most dreamed of boulevards," she added.

Similarly, Berastegui discussed the "best boulevard in the world offering great gastronomy."

Berastegui believes that this year's edition "will surprise all attendees."

The event allows bookings and walk-ins and includes a drink to accompany the experience across the 19 different restaurants offering 11 tapas, 10 'Entrepans d'Autor' sandwiches, and seven 'creative bakery.' There are also seven 'Gourmet Menus' and sunset events, musical dinners, showcookings, and wine tasting.
