Colombians in Barcelona
residents registered with the Barcelona city council.
The second-largest foreign community in Barcelona with 28,551 registered residents, right behind the Italians. Unlike Madrid, where the Colombian community is enormous and spread thin, in Barcelona it is compact enough that people recognise each other: you see it in Thursday salsa nights and in neighbourhood groups. What is missing is the way in for someone who just arrived and does not know anyone to bring them along.
What you will find here
When roots opens, this community will have its own board for asking anything about the city, a member list for whoever wants to be found, and the week’s plans with limited spots: dinners, language exchanges, nights out. And on the dating side you will be able to filter to see only people from this background, or combine it with whichever others you like.
Where this stands
Straight up: roots has not launched yet and this community is forming right now. There are no members or plans to show you, and we are not going to invent a number. What there is, is a waiting list — and whoever gets one of the first spots gets twelve months of full membership free.
