No plans in October or all year round? Don’t worry, because in Spain there are hundreds cultural activities for everyone and different tastes. However, because the agenda is so extensive and there is so much to offer, the following guide we have prepared will allow you to select or adopt all the plans we are going to tell you about.
Music, art, fashion, gastronomy, virtual experience or temporary exhibitions. You have all these cultural opportunities at your fingertips, yes, you must be in the cities of Spain that they meet or is the perfect excuse to pack your suitcase and think about an express getaway with friends, partner or yourself.
Bilbao, Madrid, Seville, Valencia or Barcelona are some of the cities we chose. Although if after reading all the cultural plans you have more desire then don’t waste your time and research because you will be surprised by all you can do and your comfort zone or typical plans they usually do that every weekend and you’re already tired.
We did not opt for restaurants or places where the explosion of flavors is unique on that occasion, because we wanted the plans to focus more on plans so that later you go to the place that is or becomes more fashionable viral in social networks.
Don’t make excuses and change the scene. We assure you that you will leave with a different mindset after seeing Dalí’s virtual exhibition, of the electronic sessions in Brunch in the park or of the baroque art preserved by the Museum of Fine Arts in Seville or the two days of fashion in Valencia.
Prepare your best look for cultural activities and don’t forget a pair of comfortable and colorful sneakers. You need a shoe that will make it easier for you to walk and walk for hours in all the places we’re going to show you. Keep your mobile handy to store everything and mark the dates on the calendar of your next visits.
Which one will you like better? We can’t tell you, but we’re confident you’ll love them all because they’re different and while in some cases they’ve been in those towns for a while, you may have walked past the building and didn’t find it, and that will change from now on. By the way, look at the following: tick tock video. Barby Gant is the best tourist guide in Madrid and wherever she is. Don’t miss anything!
Are you in Bilbao and want to go to another museum next to the Guggenheim? You have to go to the Azkuna Zentroa Alhóndiga Bilbao, the civic and cultural center, where everyone in the city is present, without forgetting the most demanding audience in the culture. By the way, if you stay in Bilbao for a few weeks, don’t hesitate to go to the top and swim in the hanging pool.
If you thought festivals are over, you’re wrong. Brunch in the Park returns to Madrid in style. Both in the Tierno Galván park area and in the IFEMA pavilion will take place the electronic music sessions that everyone has been waiting for. On the first Sunday of the festival, the almighty Solomun passed the booth, leaving everyone open-mouthed and eager to continue dancing. Don’t miss the next dates and of course their special Halloween party.
Valencia is betting on fashion again. The Clec Fashion Festival once again lands in the City of Arts and Sciences with the same energy as in the other editions and certainly with many surprises. For now, we know some confirmed designers as emerging creators. Of course we assure you that there will be no shortage of cooking shows between designers and chefs from the Valencian Community or workshops with experts in the industry. Is it only for journalists, makers or influencers? No, because you can buy tickets and enjoy the experience.
Barcelona is surrounded by experiences at all levels. For anyone in Barcelona or going in the coming days, don’t miss the Dalí Cibernético exhibition. After the success of this type of exhibition with artists such as Frida Kahlo or Vincent van Gogh, it was now Dalí’s turn. For the first time, a futuristic and cybernetic perspective is shown of the artist who revolutionized painting, society and the way of thinking.
There is no need to travel to Paris to get to the Center Pompidou. In Malaga there is this museum, which lifts the minds of the most curious and of those who are not interested in art, and when they leave they become professionals. Currently there are two exhibitions, one of painting devoted to the passage of time and another, more conceptual, to play with the magic of color.
A shop that is a museum, but also a point of sale? Palma de Mallorca has the Camper Pop-Up and this means they have built a space for anyone who likes to see Camper’s emerging and unrestricted design, which is also a museum. What else do you want! Don’t waste your time and take advantage of this opportunity.
Seville is synonymous with beautiful weather, flamenco music, haute cuisine and Baroque painting such as Murillo. If you like art and want to enjoy the best painting in Spain, you must visit the Museum of Fine Arts in Seville. Here you will find Gonzalo Bilbao, Manuel González Santos or Francisco Barrera. After absorbing all the paintings and sculptures, head out and discover the charm of the city of Seville.
Music should not be missing from this guide to planning in Spain. We chose Natalia Lacunza because we love your voice, your style and the creativity you have. If you haven’t seen the singer live yet, you have the opportunity to see her on December 2 in A Coruña.
Just as an exhibition or a concert should not be missing, a musical, it is mandatory to have it added. Tina Turner is the show where everyone who comes in and walks out is not the same person. You will not stop laughing, crying, dancing and of course singing all the iconic songs of the singer, which marked the music industry. Where is it? At the Colosseum Theater in Madrid.
The Day of the Dead is not only celebrated in Mexico or in restaurants specializing in this gastronomy, because in Casa México in Madrid they will have a big party. From October 7th you can already see how they have put down the spectacular altar that they have set up. Do not hesitate to go and learn how they make a whole tradition from centuries ago.
Following the news of the series’ premiere on Wednesday, the exposé of the director and creator of the film industry’s most iconic films, Tim Burton, follows. In the Espacio Ibercaja de Delicias you will find the most terrifying and at the same time incredible circus tent in the world. Based on 200 original sketches provided for the occasion, many of which are unpublished. The 18,000 square meters are dedicated to the director from the 1980s to the present. ‘Eduardo Scissorhands’, ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ or ‘The Corpse Bride’ are some of the examples you will see there.
This plan is one of the most original and fun. Today, October 2, you have the chance to do something that is not very common or that you thought was only done in movies. Red Bull’s crazy cars arrive in Madrid with the same energy and action as in the cartoon series, which bears the same name. Where does the craziest and funniest race take place? From 12:00 in the morning on Paseo de Ruperto Chapí you can see all the cars made by the participants and of course how they go down to be the first.
