As every week, here are our suggestions for the weekend in Valencia. If you are looking for plans to make the most of the next few days, let yourself be inspired by the blog of our Spanish school, El Rincón del Tándem 🙂
The weekend is approaching and it is time to enjoy some free time and a well-deserved rest. Therefore, we leave to all our students of the Spanish course some suggestions for the weekend in Valencia.
Below you will find our small selection of plans, where you will find a bit of everything: music, books and a flea market.
Do you want to know more? Well, let’s get started!
VierneX: Xixa Morá
Friday 17 at 10.30pm
Radio City, Calle de Santa Teresa 19
Ticket: 6-8 euros
This time our weekend kicks off with a lively night of music in one of the most emblematic places in the Carmen neighbourhood.
In fact, this Friday, the Radio City will be filled with Latin rhythms thanks to Xixa Morá. A musical group created in 2019 composed by musicians from Chile and Ireland.
Their very personal style of psychedelic cumbia is born from the fusion between traditional cumbia and other genres such as Funky.
In today’s concert, Xixa Morá will play a repertoire that comprise classic cumbia songs and original songs of the band.
Sounds great, doesn’t it?
