Or to put it another way: the least dispensable gastronomic event in the capital that brings together tens of thousands of diners year after year. It will be ten days in which music and gastronomy will join hands to add outdoor musical performances and surprises that will be revealed on October 6.
Tapapiés: open-air music and tapas
On the weekends from 18 to 20 and from 25 to 27 at noon (13h) and evening (20:30h), there will be more than thirty performances of outdoor music, parades and theatrical animations that will be distributed by the squares of Ana Diosdado, Arturo Barea, Calvario with Ministriles, Cascorro, Lavapiés and Nelson Mandela.
