TMBinnova challenge in Passeig de Gràcia

TMBinnova, in collaboration with Bit Habitat and the Barcelona Music Lab Foundation, we are making a call to find solutions based on all artistic forms of music with the aim of enhancing the user experience in the corridor of the Passeig de Gràcia station interchange.

The connection corridor between metro lines 3 and 4, with a length of 237 meters, is the longest in the network and is also one of the points to be updated within the continuous improvement processes of the metro facilities. It is one of the most well-known and heavily trafficked sections by passengers, and at the same time, one of the most controversial due to its construction characteristics.

Coinciding with the fact that this year Barcelona's metro is celebrating its centenary, we believe this is the perfect moment to carry out this initiative and make this corridor shine as it deserves.

We are opening this process to companies, start-ups, universities, associations, and collectives with legal identity.

The proposal submission period starts on January 23 and ends on February 24, 2025.

We are looking for innovative proposals that can be approached from different perspectives and levels of interaction with the public, and that can be expressed through diverse and combined artistic forms and languages, incorporating music as the main thread.

The proposed solutions must include, both in terms of design and budget, the necessary elements to install the prototype at the L3 and L4 interchange of Passeig de Gràcia and ensure its proper functioning.

The prototype must be designed for permanent use during the pilot phase, which will be predetermined in the call, and ephemeral or one-time actions are not allowed.

The three best-rated solutions will each receive a prize of 3,000 euros. The winning solution will receive 50,000 euros for the development of the prototype and the pilot deployment of the idea, along with much more.
