Madrid spends more time mitigating the complex of not having a coastline than regretting it. It is enough for you a pond with jets to call it a beach and a park is enough to celebrate a purely coastal event.
The neighborhood of El Retiro has published the Program of activities to celebrate San Juan (although, although it is true, it will be celebrated more in advance than on the day of the saint). And the Program includes concerts, batucadas, zarzuela or bouncy castles.
This string of activities, which includes even hiking trails, will be held on June 21, 22 and 23. And to welcome them will be the journalist and writer Javier Sierra giving the opening speech on Friday at 8 pm on the stage located on Narvaez Street.
