What you cannot miss in May!

What you cannot miss in May!

Hola folks,

 

You’re sure wondering what you cannot miss in May in our beautiful Madrid and here we are with our monthly agenda, a special selection of our favourite plans, events, concerts, books and many other things to have the best time in the city!

Spring is finally here” we wrote in our April Agenda...well, things got weird and a little unexpected: rainy, windy and cold weather here. It seemed the winter had a real affection for Madrid, but we’re sorry, it’s time to leave, cause we are ready for the hot season!

And, as always, Madrid offers a lot of activities, travels, parties and much more.

Here we are, ready to welcome May and enjoy the long sunny days spent in Retiro Park, for example, or have great sunset siestas on the amazing rooftops over the city.

In the meanwhile, before heading to the events, a little brief overview about some moving abroad tips:

1- Define your budget;

2- Choose the neighbourhood and collect information about it;

3- Look for an accommodation (we will help you with suggestions about housing solutions in shared flats)

4- Prepare documents and suitcases;

5- ENJOY YOUR ADVENTURE!

Now that the hot season finally joined us you don’t need any other better reason to go out and discover our beautiful city. Therefore, here we’re going to provide you with some of our favourite events that will take place in the Madrid, in case you need something more compelling!

 

EVENTS AND MORE

 

  • 8 May / 2 June - Flamenco Madrid: more than 40 shows to entertain you in the most Spanish way: on Flamenco rhythm! You can’t miss this great festival that will be held at Fernan Gómez Theatre.
  • 24-25 May - Tomavistas: hot season means great music festivals. And Madrid will host a must-see eclectic festival in the Enrique Tierno Galván park, the ideal place to carry out events like this one, thanks to its dimension, landscapes, accessibility and the extreme beauty of the union among arts and nature.
  • Every Thursday - Meet and Speak: Spanish, English, French, Italian, German and many other languages. Nightlife Madrid offers you the opportunity to learn them by setting up a great and fun meeting point for young people coming from all around the world.

 

MAY FAVOURITES

 

To eat

  • Pum Pum Café: born in 1800 as a butcher place, this cute place is today one of the vegetarian heavens you can find in Madrid. Freshly roasted organic coffee, raspberry and lemon sponge cakes, homemade pies and biscuits...and much more tasty food is waiting for you!
  • Goiko Grill: one word; outstanding! If you never tried this hamburgueseria it’s now time for you to do it. Great quality meat and low prices leaded this burger restaurant to grow quickly along the years, thanks to the best marketing tool: word of mouth.

To watch

  • Game of Thrones: okay, this is what we have been waiting for TWO YEARS! And we’re so excited that the season 8 is finally out. If you never saw this outstanding tv show, we strongly recommend you to start. It’s based on the epic fantasy novel series written by George R.R. Martin. We don’t want to spoil a lot, but be ready to keep your breath baited: common fantasy elements, such as swordplay, magic, dragons are nothing compared to the great political intrigues and human drama.

To read

  • The solitude of prime numbers: A prime number only can be divided by itself (or by 1). Alice and Mattia, the two main characters, are both prime numbers who seem destined to stay alone. Both marked by childhood tragedies, they meet in their teenagers’ period, finding in each other a damaged soul, an anchor.
    Emotional, deep and mathematically raw. You should read this beautiful italian bestseller.

To visit

  • 11-12 May - Sevilla: as you may have noticed, this month is full of Flamenco festivals and events. That’s why we suggest you an incredible experience by Citylife Madrid, all about Spanish traditions: dancing and singing on the sevillanas flamenco rhythm, some delicious tapas and a lot of fun! More info here.
  • 25-26 May - Valencia: since the hot season is going to hit Madrid hard, what about a little escape from the city? The beautiful Valencia can be the right place where to spend a sunbathing weekend enriched with beach games, sightseeing and a glamourous nightlife. More info here.

Okay, we’re done with this monthly agenda! Keep in mind all these plans, events and suggestions, because May is going to be full and it’s waiting for you to live amazing experiences in Madrid.
