This weekend, we encourage you to enjoy music in Valencia. There are concerts for all tastes so check out our blog to choose what you like best. Our Spanish school, El Rincón del Tandem, accompanies you on this short tour of musical plans 🙂

As every Friday, we bring our suggestions of plans for the weekend. This time, the music will be the main protagonist of our proposals.

To help our Spanish course students spend a nice weekend, alternating rest with leisure and cultural plans, we leave below some useful information.

This weekend, the Ruzafa School presents Market of Authors. Two days in which art and creativity will be celebrated through talks, workshops and jam sessions.
