Some tips:

1)    Download the Culture Night app in your smartphone (Here’s the link for Android users, and the link for iPhone users), or look in the city centre for the Culture Night guide.  You can use them to have a look at the programme of the night and create your personal programme for the night.

The lines A, B, C, and D are free but they have specific routes (that you can see in the pictures) and each one will depart every 20 minutes; the service starts at 6pm and the last bus leaves at 10:30pm, to be at the last venues at 11pm.

3)    Pick your top 5 favourites venues and go to them first. Make sure that the events you are interested in do not need to be booked in advance, otherwise if it is not necessary try to get there early! Some events will be very busy so try to get there on time if you really want to see them.

4)    Think outside of the box and don’t just go for the most obvious attractions. There are lots of museums, events, galleries, venues…everything is going to be open and FREE!2014-08-15_iri_2956418_I1
