Autumn in Madrid is a unique season, where the city dresses in warm colours, the temperatures invite you to take a walk and the cultural agenda is full of perfect activities to enjoy with your partner, family or friends. From ARTIEM Madrid, we want to tell you the 5 best plans to live an unforgettable autumn, and the best: all of them very close to our hotel! So if you come to Madrid, you know where to stay for a complete experience of wellness, relaxation and fun.

Day of the Dead at La Casa de México 

One of the most fascinating traditions of Mexican culture comes to Madrid with the celebration of the Day of the Dead. From 2 October to 10 November, La Casa de México opens to the public its impressive altar dedicated to this festivity. This is a unique opportunity to get to know in depth the colour and symbolism of this ancestral tradition, with an altar designed by Eugenio Caballero, a prominent Mexican artistic director. 

You can choose between a guided tour or explore the altar for free, and don't forget to take a photo among the cempasúchil flowers! Also, ARTIEM Madrid is just a few minutes away, making it the ideal starting point to enjoy this very special cultural event. 

 

Chestnut Route and Street Stalls 

Nothing screams ‘autumn’ more than the aroma of roasting chestnuts in the streets of Madrid. During October and November, the city fills up with small stalls where you can enjoy this typical seasonal delicacy. A stroll through Retiro Park or the Plaza Mayor with a bag of chestnuts in hand is the perfect plan for those looking to connect with the most authentic essence of Madrid. 

 

Madrid Jazz Festival 

Madrid is a vibrant city that always offers interesting cultural proposals, and in autumn, the International Jazz Festival is a must. From 13 September to 30 November 2024, this event brings together world jazz greats in different venues around the city, from theatres to music clubs. If you're a jazz lover or just want to enjoy good live music, this festival is a gem. The best part? After an evening of jazz, return to ARTIEM Madrid to rest and recharge your batteries in a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere. 

 

Autumn in the Royal Botanical Gardens 

For nature lovers, the Royal Botanical Garden of Madrid is the perfect place to enjoy the beauty of autumn. The golden, red and orange tones that decorate its trees create a landscape to admire. In October and November, the garden becomes an oasis of calm in the heart of the city. Take a stroll along its paths and learn more about local and world flora. 

 

42nd Festival de Otoño

Another unmissable event is the Autumn Festival, which celebrates its 42nd edition with an impressive programme of dance, theatre and experimental music. Among the numerous performances are shows in iconic venues such as Teatros del Canal, La Casa Encendida and Teatro de La Abadía.
