How to plan merch for the Festival de Arquitectura de Canet de Mar
Dates
(previous editions: mid-June – late June)
Venue
Casa Museu Lluís Domènech i Montaner and central streets — Canet de Mar, Maresme, Barcelona
Format
Talks cycle, guided tours and round tables with local audiences and invited delegations
The Festival de Arquitectura de Canet de Mar is one of the highlights of the Catalan modernist calendar: a week of programming around the Casa Museu Lluís Domènech i Montaner (the former Casa Domènech, declared Bien Cultural de Interés Nacional), with guided tours of the architect's works in the town (the Casa Museu itself, the Iglesia de la Asunción, the Farmàcia de la Calàbria and the Ateneu), heritage-restoration talks at the Casino de Canet and round tables with invited architects. The festival draws a steady audience of Catalan modernism enthusiasts, cultural press, architecture students and delegations from the professional colleges of Catalonia and the Balearic Islands.
For sponsor teams and brand activators the operational challenge is working with a heritage festival in June: Maresme temperatures drop from 24 °C to 18 °C between afternoon and night, N-II and C-32 traffic into Canet de Mar gets heavy on weekends, and hospitality is usually staged at seafront hotels (Hotel Mitus, Hotel Can Gallego) or in apartments on the Rambla del Mar. The typical brief we receive combines breathable staff apparel suited to the heat (organic cotton polos, caps), lanyards and accreditation for guests and press, heritage books and catalogues for collectors, and a final gifting set with Catalan products (DO Alella wine, comarca olive oil, La Bisbal ceramics) for invited architects and institutional delegations.
The Barcelona production hub — with Madrid as fallback — handles the full order and delivers by road (SEUR, Correos Express, GLS) to the named consignee in Canet de Mar: sponsor office in Barcelona, reference hotel on the Rambla del Mar, organisation offices next to the town hall or the Casa Museu reception. Standard delivery is 24–48 hours by appointment, since the cycle coincides with the start of summer and the C-31 towards Mataró carries heavy weekend traffic.
B2B invoices are issued in EUR with 21% VAT added via FACe / SII (AEAT). For intra-EU clients with a valid VIES number, Spanish VAT is reversed under reverse-charge. For UK and non-EU clients the invoice is issued without Spanish VAT citing the relevant EU directive article.
Recommended merch mix for sponsors and delegations
Staff and welcome-team apparel
220 GSM organic cotton polos in off-white or terracotta with two-colour screen print of the sponsor monogram, breathable technical t-shirts for the floor team, adjustable-back caps for outdoor staff in the June sun, lightweight cotton scarves for night hospitality at the Casino and recycled linen aprons for the press desk at the Casa Museu.
Visitor and guest giveaways
Premium notebooks with cover wrapped in Maresme artisanal paper, fine-point pens engraved with the festival seal, organic cotton tote bags with modernist tracery screen print, enamel pins with the Casa Domènech icon, wooden fans for the hottest afternoons and linen bookmark sets for the hand programmes — 200 to 1,500 units per edition.
Lead-capture and gifts
Compact power banks with sober branding, USB hubs for the accredited press desk, foldable wireless chargers for the welcome team, notebook + pen sets with screen print for architecture-college delegates, national cultural press and invited students from UPC and ETSAB — 50–120 premium units per edition.
VIP, architect and speaker kits
Hard-cover premium notebooks stamped with the sponsor seal, Catalan gourmet sets (DO Alella wine, Maresme olive oil, La Bisbal ceramics, La Fageda chocolate), limited editions of the festival modernist catalogue, trilingual packaging (Catalan–Spanish–English) and named delivery to the Casa Museu green room, the seafront hotel or the College of Architects office in Barcelona.
Production and delivery logistics in Canet de Mar
The brand operation at the Festival de Arquitectura de Canet de Mar is usually coordinated between Barcelona and Madrid: the local production hub handles most of the print work and light apparel, while Madrid serves as backup warehousing for special items (gift sets, ceramics, premium packaging). Delivery goes by road to the named consignee — sponsor office in Barcelona, reference hotel on the seafront, organisation offices in the centre or the warehouse set up at the Casa Museu. Standard delivery is 24–48 hours by appointment, since the cycle falls in the Sant Joan holiday window and the C-31 towards Mataró carries heavy weekend traffic.
We hold reserved stock at the Barcelona hub for recurring items — polos, notebooks and tote bags with generic print — which we can produce and deliver in 7–10 working days. For items with personalised embroidery (sponsor monogram, limited-edition number) the window moves to 12–14 working days. For sponsors with special hospitality pieces (Catalan gourmet boxes, numbered sets with La Bisbal ceramics) we recommend closing the order 4–5 weeks before the first talk, given the artisanal product's delicacy and the local supplier selection chain.
B2B invoices are issued in EUR with 21% VAT added via FACe / SII (AEAT). For intra-EU clients with a valid VIES number, Spanish VAT is reversed under reverse-charge. For UK and non-EU clients the invoice is issued without Spanish VAT citing the relevant EU directive article. Every delivery is confirmed with a signed delivery note at destination and, on request, with a photo of the material unloaded at the Casa Museu lobby or on the Rambla del Mar.
Recommended ordering timeline
6–8 weeks before: lock the product list, quantities per recipient and the print method per line (Catalan gourmet sets require stock product and selection of Maresme suppliers).
4–5 weeks before: approve a physical or pre-production sample from the Barcelona/Madrid hub and validate the sponsor monogram.
2–3 weeks before: close production, quality control and bilingual (Catalan–Spanish) labelling.
Event week: confirm the delivery window, the named consignee and the contact at the organisation office next to the town hall.
