Tips & Advice

  • Choose your visit by choir: each act performs on different dates, and some offer both afternoon and evening sessions.

  • Take Metro line 4 to Colón or Serrano, or use Madrid-Recoletos commuter rail; all are listed as nearby connections.
  • Check bus routes serving Plaza de Colón before travelling; the listing names numerous services, including routes 1, 5, 9, 14, 27 and 45.
