The San Isidro Festivities conclude this Sunday in Madrid with a farewell day combining music, children's activities, traditions, and a fireworks spectacle.

The final day of the San Isidro Festivities promises a varied offering to bid farewell to the celebration. The Plaza Mayor will host performances by Las Migas and the Juerga Flamenca de Montoya & Carmona. Meanwhile, at the Pradera de San Isidro, families can enjoy the children's show Zumikids en la granja.
Activities will kick off early at 11:00 AM in Las Vistillas, with children's events organized by the Federación de Grupos Tradicionales Madrileños, including games, workshops, and carnation giveaways. Half an hour later, at 11:30 AM, the Plaza Mayor will feature Spanish folk dances and songs presented by the casas regionales (regional houses) in homage to San Isidro.
The children's stage at the Pradera will present Zumikids en la granja at 12:00 PM, a musical program for all ages. Later, at 1:15 PM, the justas poéticas (poetic jousts), a recitation contest, will take place. At 2:00 PM in Las Vistillas, Olga María Ramos will perform cuplé songs accompanied on piano by Pablo Jiménez.
The musical program continues into the afternoon. The Pradera de San Isidro will come alive with the performance of La Paloma at 8:00 PM, followed by Xavibo at 9:30 PM. In Las Vistillas, starting at 8:30 PM, DJ Smart, Manazas, and Luiliminili, residents of the club Ochoymedio, will offer a set featuring pop, urban music, disco, dance, and electronic sounds.
Matadero Madrid also joins the festive closing with the Orquesta Panther Show, animating the celebration with a repertoire of pop, rock, and Latin music. Throughout the day, complementary activities will remain open, such as the Feria de la Cacharrería (Craft Fair) at the Plaza de las Comendadoras, the Teatro de Autómatas (Automaton Theater) at Matadero Madrid, and the exhibitions El botijo revisitado (The Revisited Jug) at the Central de Diseño de Matadero and Carteles de las Fiestas de San Isidro (Posters of the San Isidro Festivities) at the Museo de San Isidro.
The grand finale of the festivities will be a fireworks display designed by José Luis Giménez Clemente, promising effects of color, rhythm, and sound.
