About this event
Colombia's Aterciopelados have been bending rock, cumbia and protest song into the same shape since the early nineties, and they play Plaza de España for nothing at all. It is a proper outdoor stage in the middle of the city on a Friday night, part of the Hispanidad programme. Arrive well before nine if you want to be anywhere near the front.
Why we picked it
A Latin Grammy-winning band playing a free open-air show in central Madrid is the kind of listing that anchors a whole weekend.
