CULTURE AT NOON

Every Tuesday until October 2, the Buenos Aires City Government organizes the cycle “Culture at noon”, lots of shows for you to enjoy. There are dozens of free activities which include music, theater, dance and stand-up comedy. All of these great spectacles will take place in Downtown Buenos Aires, where our Hostel Colonial is located. Some of the places are: San Martin Cultural Center (1551 Sarmiento St.), San Martin Theater (1530 Corrientes Ave) and Picadero Theater (1857 Santos Discépolo Passage).

Until now, organizers have confirmed the dance schedule for these months (which you can check here below). For the full schedule, visit the Buenos Aires Cultural Agenda website (available in English if registered).
