About the “Fiesta”
the “Fiesta Española in Basel” is a free, one-day cultural celebration created by neighbors, families, and volunteers to support the Quartiertreffpunkt Gleis 58 with a shared passion for Spanish culture and community, founded in 2022 by Olivier Soro and Silvia Sastre.
2025 Program
The 2026 program will be announced later on, but you can take a look at last year’s schedule to get a feel for the vibrant atmosphere and variety of activities that make Fiesta Española unique.
