This year we will be wrapping up the conference on the Friday instead of Thursday, this all leads into a long holiday weekend in Barcelona during which the city throws one hell of a party for itself to celebrate its patron saint. Trip Advisor calls it "The biggest, baddest, loudest, happiest, 'fire-iest' mother of a festival ever." Microsoft recently featured it in a TV ad which gives you an idea of how it will roll. So come for the conference & stay for
one of Barcelona's best kept secret, the Merce & BAM Music Festival 2014.
