Barcelona Press — digital journalism at the heart of the city

Barcelona Press was founded with a clear purpose: to deliver close-to-home digital journalism about Barcelona and its metropolitan area, without sacrificing the rigour, independence, and critical perspective that a city of this stature deserves.

We are a fully digital outlet, built for readers who want to stay informed about what is happening in their city — local politics, economy, culture, society, urban development, and everything that shapes daily life in Barcelona.

A newsroom committed to Barcelona

Behind Barcelona Press is a team of journalists and contributors with one thing in common: a deep understanding of Barcelona’s reality and a commitment to accurate, verified, and genuinely useful reporting.

We believe local journalism matters. The decisions made at City Hall, the changes transforming city neighbourhoods, and the stories of the people who make this city great all deserve serious, rigorous coverage — not empty clickbait.

Editorial independence

Barcelona Press is editorially independent. We have no ties to any political party, business group, or public institution. Our only loyalty is to our readers and to the facts.

The sponsored content and commercial agreements that help sustain this project are always clearly labelled and never influence our editorial decisions. You can find more detail in our Code of Ethics.

Transparency

We practise transparency as a principle, not an obligation. We correct mistakes openly, label advertising content without ambiguity, and are always available for questions, suggestions, or criticism at redaccion@barcelonapress.com.
