Bloc Maragall 2027

Bloc Maragall 2027: more than a daily calendar

Bloc Maragall 2027 offers a simple, enjoyable way to mark the passing days: read a little, discover something new and take a moment to think. Its contents make Catalan culture part of everyday life and encourage a closer look at language, people, nature and the traditions around us.

Tearing off a page can become a small daily ritual. You might come across a word you have not heard in years, a recipe you want to try or an animal that lives nearby but rarely catches your attention. That range of subjects is part of the calendar’s appeal: each day offers another reason to stop for a few minutes.

If you prefer reading in Spanish, you can select the Popular Bloque Calendario Durán 2027 on this product page. Published every year since 1916, this daily tear-off calendar has accompanied generations of readers for over a century with poems, recipes, tips and biographies. An alternative to Bloc Maragall with a character of its own, offering the same pleasure of discovering something new each day, one page at a time.

Inside the 2027 edition

Catalan proverbs and shared memory

Catalan proverbs express generations of experience in just a few words. They speak of the land, the seasons, work and everyday life. Revisiting them helps keep a shared memory alive and gives familiar expressions a place in the present.

Literary journalism and poetry

The literary journalism features introduce writers who observed their own times and turned events, people and ordinary stories into lasting accounts. Their different perspectives offer ways to understand Catalonia and those who live there. Catalan poetry also has a prominent place in this edition, with a selection featuring established writers, emerging voices and previously unpublished poems.

Wildlife and the Catalan language

Journalist Miquel-Lluís Muntané guides readers through the world of wildlife, looking at animals in the region, their habitats, behaviour and ways of surviving. Getting to know them is also an invitation to observe and respect the natural environment we share. In her grammar notes, philologist Meritxell Freixes draws attention to Catalan words, expressions and turns of phrase, revealing the details that give the language its richness.

Recipes and crosswords

Recipes from kilometre0.cat bring local flavours and seasonal produce to the calendar. They connect cooking with the pleasure of sharing food and an appreciation of the land it comes from. Every Thursday, crosswords created by Víctor Pallàs Arisa offer a chance to play with words, exercise the mind and build vocabulary.

A cultural tradition passed from reader to reader

Bloc Maragall began with an idea from Miquel Arimany, who wanted to make a practical calendar to hang on the wall. He found a way to include writing connected with Catalan culture at a time of censorship. Over the years, the calendar grew to include poems, cooking, language and many other subjects. Its name and purpose have continued to this day.

For more than sixty years, Bloc Maragall has been part of daily life for thousands of readers. For some, it is a familiar tradition renewed each year; for others, it is an introduction to a series of small discoveries. Bloc Maragall 2027 carries that story forward with pieces to read at your own pace, talk about at home or share with someone close to you.

It also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone interested in Catalan language and culture, traditional calendars or objects that become meaningful through everyday use. A whole year of short reads, curiosity and companionship, one page at a time.
