Vanguard Architecture |
Paseo de la Alameda, 30 Valencia 46023 Spain +34 96 337 5020 http://www.palauvalencia.com |
The Palacio de la Musica is situated in the old river bed of the Turia. It was constructed in 1987 and is one of the banner buildings of modern Valencia, within what's known as the vanguard architecture movement in the city. One of its most distinguising features is the glass enclosure that looks out on the gardens in the Turia. From here you can watch the fountains that have been designed to spout to the beat of the music heard from the Palau throughout the garden. The building was built specifically to promote culture and that's exactly what it has done. Concerts, operas, ballets, musicals, conferences, presentations, and all sorts of other educational activities have been and continue to be held inside and outside the building.

A modern home for music and comedy |
Avenida de las Cortes Valencianas 60 Valencia 46015 Spain +34 96 317 9400 http://www.palcongres-vlc.com/ |
Its ultra-modern design, high-tech facilities and huge capacity have turned this new conference centre in to a venue of first choice in Spain for all types of conferences, seminars and conventions. You now have to book your event in here two years in advance. It's the work of famous British architect Norman Foster and opened in 1998. It can be used for cultural events as well.
