Salón Erótico de Barcelona - Erotic Fair
The Erotic Salon of Barcelona (SEB) has been the world reference event on the eroticism and pornography industry. The SEB proposes activities of all kinds so that you can choose the ones that best suit your tastes. And we said it was because the SEB is evolving and it already did it in the last edition. And that change has become more profound this year: the contents and shows are renewed with a more feminist, inclusive, educational, open, reflective and entertaining program. It is a complicated bet but surely necessary. The SEB wants to offer a global perspective on sexuality and represent the society of the future. For that reason, this year's motto is "We have to talk". Check the news that awaits you this year, which are many.

FC Barcelona - Sevilla FC
Sevilla FC is the oldest football club in Spain. The club of the Andalusian capital was founded in 1890 by the British Edward Farquharson Johnston, who was also its first president. Later, in 1905, the club was registered in the registry of associations, when its president was José Luis Gallegos, a native of Jerez. Interestingly, the fact that Sevilla had been founded in 1890 was not known until 2005, and that year the centenary was commemorated because the official date of foundation was that of 1905. The match played by FC Barcelona and Sevilla FC last season of the League (2018/2019) at the Camp Nou, ended with victory of the Catalans (4-2). In Ramón Sánchez Pijuan, Barça also won 2-4.
