Piano City Madrid Festival

From 26 to 28 June, Madrid will be filled with the sound of the piano: the city hosts Piano City Madrid, a series of more than 50 free concerts in the most diverse venues in the capital.

On this occasion, the piano is not installed in a concert hall, but in greenhouses, interior courtyards, museums, cultural centres and old buildings. The programme is distributed throughout the city in such a way that the music literally becomes part of walking routes.

The bill includes classical music, jazz, flamenco, electronic music and contemporary piano experiments. Each concert is brief and constitutes an independent stop that can simply be visited along the way.

The festival, created by German musician Andreas Kern, is held in different cities across Europe and has already become part of Madrid’s summer scene. Admission to all concerts is free, although some venues require prior booking because of their limited capacity.
