Indian Embassy International Yoga Day 2026, where you can celebrate across Spain

Thousands of wellness enthusiasts are preparing to gather as the Indian Embassy launches its 12th annual International Day of Yoga itinerary. This massive 2026 schedule will hold free public sessions, mindfulness gatherings, and community wellness programs to 33 areas across Spain and Andorra.

Organised with regional town halls, local cultural groups, and yoga federations, this year’s edition has the global theme, “Yoga for Healthy Aging.” The expansive programme wants to bring focus to the long-term mental and physical benefits of the practice and celebrate the cultural bond between India and Spain.

The national schedule starts with youth events and peaks on June 21, the official UN global day.

Major yoga gatherings scheduled for Madrid and Barcelona

The capital’s stage belongs to Madrid’s Plaza de Oriente on the morning of June 21. From 9am to 11am, instructors will guide a massive, open-air crowd through the internationally recognised Common Yoga Protocol.

Simultaneously, Catalonia will host its primary event in Barcelona at Parc Joan Miro from 8:30am to 10am. Both marquee gatherings are entirely free to attend, open to all age groups, and require no prior experience.
