One of the most famous Catalan traditions are the Castellers, Human Towers.
You might have read about them in your guidebooks, but sometimes it is hard to find their performances unless you hit a major local festivity...
However, summertime is Castellers season, and if you are ready to drive out of town you might have the chance to see it (most of the times, they take place during the weekends).
If you have a facebook account, I reccomend you join this group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=5362054345 where you'll get an English calendar of performances and more info about this exciting tradition.
Otherwise, there is this online agenda , but it is written in Catalan (although it's easy enough to understand the dates, times and name of the town): http://www.webcasteller.com/ca/agenda.php
