Overview

• The date and venue were confirmed for the Auditori del Fòrum at an event at the Palau de la Generalitat led by Academy president Fernando Méndez-Leite with Sònia Hernández and Jaume Collboni.
• Barcelona returns as host more than 25 years after the city last staged the Spanish film awards in 2000.
• The Academy has not yet selected gala presenters, with the board set to vote on that and other production details in the coming months.
• City plans include a modest Hall of Fame on Avinguda Diagonal, seven giant Goya statuettes placed around Barcelona, and public screenings at the Filmoteca de Catalunya.
• The move continues the awards’ rotation across Spain in recent years and follows a strong season for Catalan films that drew about 730,000 spectators.
