The 2024 Efímurs Festival in L’Ametlla de Mar

Thanks to photographer Lluis Olive-Bulbena, we have new photos today of a sophisticated mural program called Efimur, which heralds natural beauty and creates new examples in the urban landscape. Here is a quick visual journey through the vibrant and dynamic murals of the 2024 Efímurs Festival, held in the picturesque coastal town of L’Ametlla de Mar, south of Tarragona, Spain.

As an urban art festival, Efimur is directed and coordinated by the local artist Uri Márquez Cateura (@uri.kthr), who brought a selection of talented muralists this year. Supported by organizations like the Tourism Department of L’Ametlla de Mar, the City Council, and funded by the European Next Generation funds, the festival’s theme revolved around the integration of urban art with the natural and cultural landscapes of L’Ametlla de Mar.
