A month later, and after tracking Covid-19 cases and contagions amongst the 5.000 concert-goers, the pilot test organizers have determined that the gig was not a superspreader event in results that could have implications for future Covid-time festivals in Barcelona and beyond.

All in all, only 6 people tested positive within two weeks following the concert—the equivalent of an incidence rate of 131 cases per 100.000 inhabitants when at the same time, Catalonia’s overall rate was 259. Of these 6 cases, medical professionals have been able to establish that 4 were not infected at the 27 March event, while the origin of the other 2 remains undetermined.
