Special Summer Nights in Spain
Here are some ideas for original nights out in Spain this summer, when it's more fun than ever to enjoy the outdoors.
-
Noches de Embrujo ('Enchanted Nights')
These are the nights you will experience in unique venues that host flamenco shows. You can experience this especially in Andalusia during the summer. For example, the International Festival of Music and Dance of Granada is held between June and July in the Alhambra; Seville hosts performances in the gardens of the Real Alcazar and the Córdoba Guitar Festival concerts take place in the emblematic Teatro de la Axerquía, Gran Teatro and Teatro Góngora.
-
Nights in the Roman Empire
The event takes place in Mérida, which between July and August celebrates the International Classical Theatre Festival. The city's Roman theatre, with over 2,000 years of history, is the main stage. You can also visit the temples and monuments that Mérida preserves from its past splendour in Roman times.
-
Nights of music in a cave
We are referring to the Cova d'en Xoroi, on the island of Menorca, and the Jameos del Agua, on the island of Lanzarote. Nights at Cova d'en Xoroi are legendary, especially during summer when you can also enjoy live music in this wonderful setting with sea views. Los Jameos is a volcanic tube transformed into an enchanting space in which the artist César Manrique achieves the fusion of architecture and nature. Concerts are also held there.
-
Night under the stars
Do you know that Spain has skies renowned for their sharpness for stargazing? The best known are distributed among Andalusia, Aragon, Canary Islands, Castile and León, Catalonia, Extremadura, La Rioja and Galicia. You can join nature expeditions to see the stars, visit observatories or spend the night in accommodation especially designed to enjoy the night sky.
-
Cultural moonlight nights
These are guided nighttime tours of iconic monuments and cities. Perhaps the Alhambra of Granada and the Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba are the most striking because they allow you to visit the monument in a much quieter and less crowded way than during the day. However, night-time guided tours are organised in almost all of Spain's tourist cities during the summer. In some cases, dramatised tours are also offered.
