Poesiacordes
We celebrate Music Day with the concert Poesiacordes by Francisco Castro.
Come and discover the great Galician poetry set to music from the wild 1960s to the present day. You’ll be able to listen to and sing along with Rosalía (de Castro, not the other one), Álvaro Cunqueiro, Curros Enríquez, and many more, in a performance featuring rock, pop, reggae, and ballads so you won’t stop singing for a second.
See how many Galician songs and poems you know!
For adult audiences. In the auditorium. Free admission until full capacity is reached.

The “Xenerais da Ulla” is the most outstanding feature of the Ulla region’s traditional Carnival. It has been held in the surroundings of Santiago since the first half of the 19th century: the “Xenerais” (generals) ride on horseback, dressed in colourful military garments similar to those of that time, but they also include purely carnivalesque adornments, which the horses also wear.
