There’s plenty of exciting restaurants, bars and venues to enjoy during the festival Mad Cool Festival in Madrid may boast the best line-ups year upon year, but it’s also the central Spanish location that’s unbeatable. Along with welcoming the likes of Dua Lipa, Pearl Jam, Måneskin and The Killers to the Spanish capital from July 10-13, the Iberdrola Music Venue in Villaverde is easily accessible from the city centre by car or public transport. That means there’s plenty more to experience during downtime in the mornings and late at night – or maybe on a touristy day either side of the festival – to get the most out of your festival experience.
If you’re hoping to check out the best bars, restaurants and venues where Madrid locals choose to wine, dine and dance, we’ve rounded up the spots we think you should visit while you’re in town to squeeze as much as you can out of your stay. Where is it? Plaza de la Independencia, just a 20-minute drive away from the festival, or 45 minutes on the train. When should I go? One morning before the festival – it’s open from 10am, but closed on Saturdays.
Why will it be brilliant? This contemporary art museum hosts almost 900 works in a unique and contemporary space. From paintings, sculptures and even sound art, you can find creations from over 270 artists. It’s totally free to visit, and guided tours are available in both Spanish and English.
