Noches del Botánico announces the celebration of its 5th anniversary, which will take place during the months of June and July 2021. This new and special edition means the reunion with the Madrid public, who will be able to enjoy the return of live concerts, outdoors and within the magical environment of the Real Jardín Botánico Alfonso XIII of the Complutense University of Madrid.

 

The current situation means that, on this occasion, all the necessary measures have been adopted to minimise the risks and provide the greatest possible protection: the reduction of capacity to 2,000 people, the holding of all concerts in seated format and the use of masks, in order to ensure compliance with the established protocols at all times.

 

This year the space has been used in a more optimal way, and the site will have two distinct areas: the recreation and catering area and the auditorium, where the concerts will be held.

 

On behalf of the organization, and thanks to the collaboration of the Rectorate of the Complutense University of Madrid, the space of this first area of Jardín Botánico has been expanded to a total of 19,000 m² of meadows and trees. In this way, there are large areas in which to enjoy and disconnect without neglecting safety. Doors will open at 7 p.m. every concert day.

 

In this fifth anniversary it is committed to preserve the essence. Noches del Botánico remains an eclectic festival that bets to highlight, more than ever, national artists. Vibrating to the origins with flamenco, passing through the poetry of the best singer-songwriters, recalling the best years of the movida madrileña and taking off towards the most evocative atmospheres of the alternative scene.

 

As announced in yesterday's press release, since last year, the festival has worked hard to confirm as many of the scheduled artists as possible. In cases where it has not been possible to maintain the concerts for this year or to postpone them, the full amount has been refunded to the purchasers. This policy will continue in the event that a concert is changed, restricted or cancelled.

 

Purchasers who decided to keep their tickets purchased in 2020 have been offered an exclusive pre-sale so that they can buy them again and choose their preferred seat in the new ticket plan adapted for this situation. Tickets will have to be purchased in co-habitation units, thus ensuring a safe distance.

Last but not least, tickets for 2021 will be on sale to the general public from Wednesday 05 May. The only official sales points are www.nochesdelbotanico.com and www.entradas.com, the rest are fraudulent websites or resale platforms.

 

In the same way, the new dates of the artists who have postponed their performance for the sixth edition in 2022 have also been confirmed:
