Agenda Barcelona 92

In commemoration of the 30th Anniversary of the 1992 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Barcelona, the Barcelona Olympic Foundation has collected the testimony of 30 protagonists of different fields that made those Games possible.

The documentary “30 views, 30 years later” recounts through various voices how events developed and what vicissitudes had to solve to carry out what Joan Antoni Samaranch called “the best Games in history”

Alberto Aragón talk about his PhD about “Barcelona’92 sustainable legacies”

Voluntaris 2000 colaboration

Thirty years after their epic 10,000m, and the highly symbolic victory lap, Derartu Tulu – the first black African woman to win an Olympic gold medal – and Elana Meyer – who won the first medal for South African when they were re-admitted to the Olympic Games in 1992 after a ban lasting 32 years – met again today in Barcelona.

Elana Meyer donated to the Museu Olimpic I de l’Esport Joan Antoni Samaranch the neutral flag with which she ran the legendary that “26^th lap”, which was to be the defining moment of the Barcelona 1992 Games.

Both athletes signed the flag, and Elana wrote on it:

The symbol of the power of the values of the Olympics!

Friendships, Peace, Perseverance

Those moments of deep friendship, of building bridges and spontaneous connection through sport were on show in Barcelona in 2022 just as they were in 1992.

On 25 July the Olympic Museum will hold an open day (free admission) so you can enjoy the sport and culture.

Barcelona’s Cultural Olympiad consisted of a four-year programme of cultural initiatives in the city, which culminated in the 1992 Olympic Arts Festival. The main objective of the Cultural Olympiad was to promote Barcelona’s artistic heritage and, for four years, to turn it into a cultural centre of maximum international promotion. The Olympic ideals of peace, dialogue, fraternity and cultural exchange were at the heart of the Cultural Olympiad. This programme, in addition to including cultural events, was also intended to promote the international dissemination of Barcelona and encourage dialogue among the countries who were to take part in the 1992 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Through this exhibition, and on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the 1992 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the Barcelona Olympic Foundation seeks to pay tribute to the Cultural Olympiad and to all the people who took part in it.
