Black Friday in Barcelona: pre-Christmas sales!
The concept of Black Friday has recently reached Europe from the US, where the day after Thanksgiving traditionally marks the start of the Christmas shopping period. This shopping-event is also celebrated in the Radical Market, a huge fair that offers incredible promotions.
Black Friday in the center of Barcelona the last weekend of November
Black Friday was launched in Barcelona by Cromek Systems, a marketing agency, with the aim of helping smaller retailers and promoting local commerce. Previous editions of the event have attracted over 400 participants.
Shops all over Barcelona will offer significant reductions on articles and services over the last weekend in November.
These promotions cover a whole range of different items, including fashion, accessories and décor, alongside less “conventional” options – meals out, for example, or even laser epilation treatments!
