Bob Dylan will offer six concerts in the month of July in Spain, starting with the one scheduled for the 4th of that month in Barcelona, until the 11th when it will call in San Sebastián, after passing through Zaragoza, Madrid, Granada and Córdoba. Among all of them, the concert that will be offered on July 6 in the Spanish capital stands out, both for the chosen venue, the Barclaycard Center (former Sports Palace), with some 15.000 maximum capacity seats, and for the fact that it does more than a decade that the American artist, 73, does not perform in Madrid.
As was learned earlier this week, the opening of this Spanish tour will take place at the Jardines de Pedralbes Festival, which will host Barcelona in summer. Later he will perform at the Prince Felipe Pavilion in Zaragoza (day 5), at the Granada Sports Palace (day 8), in the 35th edition of the Guitar Festival held at the Axerquía Theater in Córdoba (day 9) and, finally, at the Donostia Arena in San Sebastián, on the 11th.
