Barcelona Pavilion was an indie pop band formed in 2001 from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Their releases include It's Because of the Barcelona Pavilion and It's the Barcelona Pavilion, on Blocks Recording Club leading to a devoted cult following.
The band were described by NOW in 2003 as "the best new band in Toronto", and were strongly associated with the Torontopia scene of the era. That year they also recorded a radio session for BBC Radio 1 DJ John Peel. After disbanding in 2005, the group reunited for a one-off performance as a part of the popular Toronto music series Wavelength's 500th showcase on February 14, 2010.
