Various events are offered by the college on a weekly basis. For example; a full day excursion i.e. Toledo, Segovia etc, a weekly guided tour to one of Madrid’s famous museums and a weekly social evening to enable the students to meet and get to know each other.
Madrid’s museums are world class, the Prado and Reina Sofia are “must sees” if you love Art, a wide range of theatres and cinemas thrive in the city. For shopping Madrid is a paradise, luxury goods abound in the Salamanca district, leather good and shoes are to be found around Gran Via and Puerta del Sol right through to the bargains of the famous flea market, “El Rasto”. Food is taken very seriously and there are more than 3000 restaurants to chose from, satisfying every style, taste and budget.
For those who want to explore Madrid’s night life (expect to see thousands of people, hundreds of bars, traffic jams at 4 am, lights and noise). We recommend the bars and restaurants in the student area of “Arguelles” and “Moncloa”, and “Huertas” for a range of bars to sample. There are several flamenco clubs and nightclubs around the city where you can party until 6 AM.
