To get to the Calella Lighthouse, there is a free public transport service that stops at the Tourist Office (N-II) from 7:30 p.m. and the use of a mask will be mandatory. In case of rain, the paid shows will be held in the Multipurpose Hall of the Llobet-Guri Factory.
Preventive measures
In the celebration of the concerts, measures will be applied to avoid risks of contagion by coronavirus among the people attending. In this way, it is foreseen that the capacity is limited to 50% and the separation between the seats respects the necessary safety distances. Two passes of each concert will be held and all chairs and toilets will be disinfected between passes. Also at the entrance of the enclosure there will be a hydroalcoholic gel dispenser.
