The Thyssen brings back its free concerts and makes June one of the year's cultural months

The initiative returns in June and September under the slogan “Music for the eyes”, an idea that invites people to listen to art in a different way. Each performance is born from a work in the museum’s permanent collection, which inspires musicians from different styles to create their own sound interpretation.

The programme begins on 5 June with Victor Herrero and will continue with new performances on the museum’s terraces. The concerts will begin at 20:00 and admission will be free until capacity is reached, making them one of the most attractive options for those seeking culture without spending money and away from large crowded events.

The initiative brings together contemporary music, artistic heritage and one of the most privileged settings in central Madrid. As evening falls over the Paseo del Prado, attendees will be able to enjoy performances inspired by historic paintings, creating an experience that goes beyond the traditional concert.

The return of Tardes Thyssen also reinforces the role of museums as living spaces, capable of attracting very different audiences. It is not only about visiting an art collection, but about turning the museum into a meeting place where music, culture and urban leisure coexist.

In a June packed with concerts, festivals and major events, Thyssen is committed to a more intimate and unhurried proposal. An alternative for those who prefer to discover new artists, enjoy a sunset in the city centre and rediscover one of Madrid’s most important museums from a different perspective.

The Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza has spent years exploring formats that connect art with other disciplines. Its terraces, open during the warmer months, have become one of the city’s most distinctive cultural venues. With the return of Tardes Thyssen, Madrid recovers an outing that combines heritage, music and summer in the very heart of the Landscape of Light.
