Go out dancing amongst locals

Malasaña is known for its bustling nightlife, where evenings stretch out into the wee hours of the morning. La Va Lactea is a lively hub, where locals come to mingle and to dance to an eclectic music selection across its two floors. For live music, travellers can’t go past the El Buho Real for dulcet acoustic tunes and its laid-back vibe.

Head to the VillaManuela festival

If food, music and festivity sounds like a dreamy combination, then the VillaManuela festival is an unmissable stop on a journey through Madrid. Malasaña locals welcome the three-day long party that offers gastronomic delights with traditional tapas and mouth-watering modern bites. With a range of music acts ranging from the local to the global it’s a truly international feast and a must-do for any Madrid explorer.

Indulge in the afternoons with a merienda

When travelling like a local, it’s crucial to eat like one too. As dinner is often taken later in the evening, it’s common for a small meal termed a merienda to be eaten in the late afternoon. As the premier dining district in Madrid, Malasaña has some of the best venues to indulge in this afternoon snack. Check out J&J’s bookshop (a hybrid café and bookstore) or Carmencita Bar. Try a sip of vermouth while you’re at it, this fortified wine is very popular amongst locals!

Explore Spanish culture through dance

Experience the culture of this amazing city like a local. Combine a Flamenco lesson with tapas, and finish the day with a sangria as the sun goes down. You haven’t been to Spain until you’ve danced with a Spaniard. Make sure your visit to Madrid is one you’ll never forget! And don’t worry, we go easy on the newcomers, Flamenco is for young and old alike
