I recently went to see Amos Lee and Beth Gibbons at Noches del Botánico, and I was really pleasantly surprised. I hadn’t been to a concert at this venue in years. It was already a lovely venue, and now the space has grown into something truly beautiful. It’s set inside a botanical garden, which makes for a lovely place to wander before the show — peaceful paths, lots of greenery, and quiet corners to sit and relax.
There are also a bunch of vendors selling alternative/hippie-style clothing, jewelry, and some decent food and drinks. The whole vibe is super laid-back but well organized.
We were in the Pista section (the standing area), and it was easy to get right up to the front — such an incredible experience being that close to the artists. Behind the standing area, there’s a seated section for those who prefer to hang back a bit. The concert space itself is just the right size — big enough to feel like a proper live show, but still intimate enough to feel connected to the music and the crowd.
Bathrooms were clean and there were plenty of them (always a plus at outdoor events).
Overall, it was a fantastic night. I’m already looking forward to catching more concerts here — they bring in artists from all over the world every summer, and the setting really...
Read moreAttended just once to see The Roots, and I’m already plotting my return! ✨ Picture this: a lush botanical garden transformed into a twinkling wonderland, with fairy lights dancing among the trees and the air buzzing with good vibes. The ambiance? Chef’s kiss.
The food trucks were a delightful surprise, offering everything from gourmet burgers to vegan delights, ensuring no one goes hungry. And the vendors? A treasure trove of unique finds, from handmade jewelry to quirky art pieces.
The music was, of course, the star of the show. The Roots delivered an unforgettable performance, and the sound quality was impeccable. The crowd was the perfect mix of enthusiastic and respectful, making it easy to dance or just soak it all in.
Facilities were clean and accessible, which is always a bonus at festivals. As for tickets, I was lucky enough to be gifted mine, but from what I hear, prices vary depending on the artist ranging from €40 to €90.
Whether you’re with friends, family, or on a romantic date, Noches del Botánico is a must-do summer experience in Madrid. It’s not just a concert; it’s an evening of enchantment under the stars....
Read moreWhat a truly wonderful garden! I was here for around three hours taking endless photos. My legs were sore after walking that long 😂
All the sights were incredible. They have different types of flowers from all over the world. There was a very huge tree, I think the biggest in the whole garden that was amazing to look at. 🌳
My favorite part was the greenhouse. It felt like a totally different world. What a fantastic experience! Each greenhouse had different inner climates and temperatures suited to the different plants inside the greenhouse. Towards the end, you can even climb the stairs to see from above. 🌺 🌼
The cactuses, the mini trees, and the pool by the house with the ducks were also super cool to look at. 🌵
What a captivating, lovely garden in the heart of Madrid. Next time I go to Spain, I will bring my...
