The sixth edition of the Tour del Talent, promoted by the Princess of Girona Foundation, will commence the second week of February with a shared capital among Badalona, Santa Coloma de Gramenet, and Sant Adrià de Besòs, three cities connected by the Besòs River.
This initiative, aimed at activating, mobilizing, and boosting young talent by connecting them with new opportunities and role models, will maintain its territorial collaboration model. The first stop in 2027 will be the result of collaboration between the three city councils and the Princess of Girona Foundation, with the support of the Barcelona Provincial Council.
During this initial stop, the Princess of Girona Social Award 2027 will be announced, one of the four award categories. Finalists and winners of the other categories (CreaEmpresa, Art, Research, and International) will be revealed throughout the Tour's journey across five Spanish cities during the first half of the year.
The Tour del Talent, which has already surpassed 160,000 cumulative participants in its first five editions, will offer a diverse program including training, professional guidance, inspiration, culture, technology, sports, and emotional well-being. The goal is for young people to discover their talent, develop their skills, and find new future opportunities.

"The Princess of Girona Talent Tour once again kicks off in Catalonia, this year in the Besòs area: in Sant Adrià de Besòs, Santa Coloma de Gramenet, and Badalona. From the Princess of Girona Foundation, we believe that all young people have talent and what they need are spaces for inspiration, activation, and connection, where they can hear the experiences of other young people and discover new opportunities. And this is precisely what the Tour del Talent offers. During the second week of February, we expect to bring together more than 10,000 young people in this new edition."

"By participating in the Tour del Talent, Badalona reaffirms its commitment to being alongside young people and offering them tools and opportunities to build their future. We live in a world that is changing at an extraordinary speed, especially due to technological advancements and artificial intelligence, and we must help our young people prepare to face these new challenges. We want the young people of Badalona to be able to develop their full potential, have access to new opportunities, and be prepared for the future."
The Princess of Girona Foundation will soon announce the remaining cities that will be part of the Tour del Talent 2027 itinerary. Last year's edition, held in Baix Llobregat, attracted over 11,200 participants across 90 activities.
