All of this takes place in open-air venues and is free to enter.

From August 1 to 5, the initiative, promoted by the Department of Culture, will transform plazas, parks, and auditoriums into live stages. With a multidisciplinary approach, the program is designed to "enjoy the best outdoor venues in the city, bringing art to all people, ages, and sensibilities," said Councilor for Culture Marisa Mingot.
