Barcelona Pavilion is a Toronto-based band of the early 2000's. The band developed a cult following and was relatively unique among Toronto bands of the period. Their releases include It's Because of the Barcelona Pavilion and It's the Barcelona Pavilion, on Blocks Recording Club.
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. This period of brief popularity gave way to a long period of wilful obscurity from which the band has yet to emerge.
