Summer Festivals in Girona

During the summer months the province of Girona becomes a cultural paradise with a wide variety of music, dance and performing arts. The selection of music on offer goes from classic through jazz to opera and flamenco. The most famous and best funded festivals are without doubt the Festival Castell de Peralada and the Caixa de Girona sponsored events at Cap Roig botanical gardens.Coming up behind these but with possibly more interesting up and coming performers are the Porta Ferrada festival in Sant Feliu de Guixols and the  Festival de Musiques of Torroella de Montgrí. The other events which are always fabulous because of their unique settings are the Musiques Religioses i del Mon in Girona set on the steps of the Cathedral and the open air setting next to the Greek and Roman ruins of Empuries. These are truly nights to remember where you can sit outside in the balmy evening listening to some amazing performances live thinking how extremely civilized this is.
To name all the performances would be to cite literally hundreds but please do ask in the local tourist information or look in a newspaper since most nights from now on there is sure to be something happening near you.I will be going to several concerts in Girona  including the Tallis Scholars, Noa and Khalid Izri which is free, then a visit to Torroella to listen to Mah Damba from Mali and to pay homage to James Brown at Sant Feliu and Kool and the Gang at Cap Roig. So get yourself motivated  and book some tickets for a special night out this summer, you will definitely not regret it!
