In the year 2000 both the British Grand Prix and the San Marino GP were held before the Spanish event. In 2001-07 the San Marino GP was the first European event. This year is the first time the Spanish GP has been the first European race (at least since 2000, anyway).

Looking back over those same years the Spanish GP has been held on various dates between April 28th (2002) and May 14th (2006). There are lots of comings and goings in F1 venues at the moment and it would be best to await the publication of the 2009 calendar before making any arrangements.
