LA NAVIDEÑA
International Fair of Cultures
Date
15
23 December 2016
Venue
Matadero Madrid
Institution
Matadero Madrid
The second edition of La Navideña International Fair of Cultures stays true to its origin and has been designed for everyone who lives in Madrid, whatever their religion, age, ethnic background or ideology.
This gathering resides in a deep awareness of the social and cultural complexity that exists in Madrid and around the world. A complexity we celebrate at the fair from the first to the last activity, and which is present from the word go. Eighty embassies and various international cultural organisations are joining forces with Madrid City Council to create a comprehensive and attractive programme for all members of the public.
These festivities, whatever the occasion and wherever in the world you may be, are opportunities for having fun and, above all, for sharing. And if there’s one thing Madrid residents can do between 15 and 23 December at this fair it’s just that: enjoy an activity-packed week with their loved ones. Matadero Madrid will be overflowing on all sides: music, children’s events, gastronomy, cinema, exhibitions and Nativity scenes from around the world will come together at this venue, reflecting the complexity and richness behind the city’s vibrant artistic scene.
La Navideña International Fair of Cultures held by Madrid City Council joins in the celebration as though it were a great caravan of bygone days. At Matadero both young and old will discover a magical place where they can pick up arts and craft items from different countries, dance, sing, play, enjoy the finest gastronomy and live this caravan of diversity to the fullest.
