This weekend, Alcorcón becomes a cultural hub with the celebration of the 5th Book Fair at X-Madrid and an anticipated Michael Jackson tribute concert, offering diverse options for all tastes.

The 5th Book Fair at X-Madrid has established itself as a key annual event, aiming to bring literature closer to a diverse audience in an innovative setting. Following the success of previous editions, this fair serves as a meeting point for reading enthusiasts, combining culture and leisure. For three days, over 60 stands from publishers, bookstores, and authors will be distributed along the indoor corridors of the ground floor and the covered outdoor plaza of X-Madrid, allowing visitors to explore new literary releases and purchase titles for all ages and preferences. The fair's main objective is to promote reading, give visibility to new talents, and connect the world of books with the community.
Additionally, on Saturday, April 25th, the Teatro Buero Vallejo will host the show Michael’s Legacy, a tribute to Michael Jackson that recreates the format of his major international tours. This show will feature live music, a band, singers, and a powerful dance troupe, led by a renowned impersonator of the artist. It is expected to be an unmissable event for Alcorcón residents.

"Alcorcón's leisure agenda arrives stronger than ever with several cultural plans, so the weekend will be full of alternatives for all residents."
