The '''''Oxcars''''' (stylized as '''''OXcars''''' or '''''oXcars''''') are a non-competitive awards ceremony held at Sala Apolo in [[Barcelona]], [[Spain]], in October each year. They are a public showcase that puts the spotlight on cultural creation and distribution carried out under the paradigms of shared culture.<ref>{{cite news|title= La gala de los oXcars exalta la circulación libre de la cultura |newspaper=El País|url= http://www.elpais.com/articulo/cataluna/gala/oXcars/exalta/circulacion/libre/cultura/elpepucul/20081023elpcat_20/Tes |accessdate=March 7, 2011|date=2008-10-23|last1=País|first1=Ediciones El}}</ref> |
