MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, July 30, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Those jetting off to sunny Madrid this September will have the chance to attend one of the city's most entertaining and action-packed cultural events.
White Night, or Noche en Blanco as it is known locally, is celebrated annually on a full moon, with this year's festival taking place on September 19th.
Activities are held across Madrid from sunrise to sundown and visitors can expect everything from traditional flamenco dancing to art exhibitions.
Many of the city's art galleries, parks and museums stay open late into the night, offering special guided tours to holidaymakers and local residents.
There will also be light projection displays, street theatre performances and interactive activities, with something on offer for the whole family.
Some of the venues that took part in last year's festival include Conde Duque, the Royal Palace, El Prado museum, La Almudena cathedral, Circulo de Bellas Artes, the Santiago Bernabeu stadium and the Paraninfo of Universidad Complutense - all of which are within easy reach of dozens of Madrid hotels.
Other major events taking place in the city this September include the eighth Asia Festival and the The Moscow Bolshoi Ballet Academy, which will be performing in the Teatro Real from September 5th to the 10th.
