Abstract

Analyzing 71 pictures taken from Instagram with the hashtag #barcelonaparty, the popular nightlife of the Catalan capital is being studied in order to determine what are the main characteristics of it. Topics as gender, point of view and salience are analysed in this thesis given that not only the content of them but how they are formally done is important. Therefore, a possible meaning on Barcelona party life is made. Taking this into account this thesis' main question to answer is the following one: “How is Barcelona being portrayed as a party city through the first hundred pictures on Instagram’s March 2019 timeline using the hashtag #barcelonaparty?”.
