I don't know where the festival is, but try and find somewhere around  
Paseo De Gracia - it's central and cheap to get to from the airport (a  
couple of euros... beats the Heathrow Express huh?) and is well  
connected out to most other areas. I stayed in the Hotel Europark a  
couple of weeks ago. Considering how nice it was, it was cheap. Stayed  
in Hotel Tryp last week, and it was aweful. If the concert is out  
towards the edge, the Princess is nice, except it shuts its sky bar  
outside of the summer (when's the festival?)

As someone said, getting around is easy and cheap. Cabs aren't awful  
and are quick (unless you get into Las Ramblas).
