FC Barcelona will celebrate Sant Jordi (Saint George’s Day) once again by connecting with the people of the city, honouring its Barcelona roots, and offering the public the opportunity to contribute to a charitable cause.

On April 23, the club will take to the streets with a stand even larger than last year’s, located in the heart of Barcelona, at the intersection of Rambla Catalunya and Carrer Rosselló, operational from 9am to 8pm. Special roses will be available for purchase, not only wrapped in the club's blaugrana colours, but also for a charitable purpose. The funds raised from the sales will be donated to the FC Barcelona Foundation. The roses can also be purchased in a package with a Blaugrana Wtistband, or the band can be bought separately, a project by the Barça Foundation to promote initiatives in collaboration with pediatric hospitals in Catalonia and around the world, aiming to make the care for children and young people with serious illnesses more compassionate and humanised, both in hospitals and in home care.
