Barcelona is your city if you are looking for cosmopolitan and original environments

One of the most impressive cities in Spain is Barcelona, filled with a lot of art and creativity. It has become one of the cultural capitals of Europe, where in each street there is an artistic representation of different genres. It is a place that knows how to mix the new with the old, that is not afraid to show how its artists left their marks, and that attracts people for its tendencies.

Gaudí is one of those artists who left his artistic signature wherever he could, and one of those who gave the city the most fame. It is not strange to see the Gaudí touch in most of its buildings, but also the modernization that this fame has brought it. Visitors can easily enjoy the city life together with the flair of the Mediterranean coastwhich turns nights into an adventure.

Barcelona offers a lot for all its inhabitants and visitors, but if it is about Latin rhythms, La Fira Provença is the best place for this. Its location, atmosphere, and service make it one of the best nightclubs in this Spanish city.

Gilberto Santa Rosa arrives in Spain with his “Camínalo Tour”

 

 

The great Puerto Rican singer Gilberto Santa Rosa continues his successful concert tour “Camínalo Tour” with four stops in Spain’s most representative cities. This tour is not only to relive his best hits, but also to celebrate his more than four decades on the stage. We tell you everything in the following lines.

Gilberto Santa Rosa, an artist with four decades on the stage

“El Caballero de la Salsa” was born in Puerto Rico in 1962 and from a very young age showed talent for music, especially Latin genres. After more than four decades on the stage, Santa Rosa has left an indelible mark on Latin music, hence his nickname.

This artist has managed to be very versatile in his work, even though he concentrates on a single genre such as salsa. Many of his songs show different sides of the genre, from a very romantic salsa to one that makes everyone dance.

Another of his great talents is his ability to improvise on stage, in many of his shows it is not surprising to hear different lines from the original ones. But all this, plus his great charisma, conquers his public, as he says: “In my concerts, music is always the star of the show.”

“Camínalo Spain Tour” is the reunion of Gilberto Santa Rosa with Spain

“Camínalo Tour” began in June 2021, when he returned to the stage after the COVID-19 pandemic. It has passed through the big cities of Latin America and the United States. Finally after 4 years without stepping on Spanish soil we will be able to enjoy Gilberto in this part of his tour.

The great Puerto Rican artist will be in four cities: Barcelona, Alicante, A Coruña, and Madrid; from March 2 to 5, 2023. The announcement was made in November 2022 and tickets are already on pre-sale, so if you want to see this great salsa singer, run and secure your ticket.

The love that the Spaniards have for Gilberto is so great that the best arenas in each city were reserved for these stops. And it will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, as he himself explains: “We are a generation of artists who, if we didn’t sing on stage, would feel like we’re cheating people.”

And this love for the stage is also shown in these words: “I am very happy to be able to close this tour… which has given us so many unforgettable moments. These next concerts will be very special, because in some cities we haven’t been there for a long time and that always gives it a particular aura. The musicians who accompany me from Puerto Rico, all those who are part of the tour, and I are more than ready to present the Camínalo Tour”.

The talent, passion and charisma that Gilberto Santa Rosa imposes on his work is undeniable, which is reflected in his Latin Grammy awards for best salsa album in 2007 and 2010, best traditional tropical album in 2009, best traditional pop vocal album in 2015 and the Latin Grammy for musical excellence that he won in 2021. We are excited for this concert!
