Concerts by youth ensembles are regularly arranged by Granada’s Town Hall on this central square with the Cathedral as backdrop.

Isglesia del Sagrado Corazón
The Neo-Gothic Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is run by the Jesuits and it is right in the centre of Málaga. The church arranges a series of choral concerts throughout the year. Participation at Mass is also possible for visiting choirs.

Concerts can be arranged in a number of performance spaces in Seville depending on your ensemble type and time of travel: from pretty courtyards to city parks and local churches.
Recommended excursions
Malaga
Pupils discover the attractions of the port city of Malaga, with its winding old streets, impressive monuments, beautiful gardens and countless shops and cafés. Highlights include the ancient fortress of Gibralfaro – which overlooks the modern city – and a visit to The Museo Picasso Malaga, housing about 155 works by Malaga’s most famous painter.
Granada
A full day is needed to explore the city of Granada with its stunning Moorish architecture. The highlight is the famous Alhambra fortress, built for the last Muslim emirs in Spain. With fortified gateways, splendid palaces and beautiful gardens, it will not fail to impress your students.
Aqualand Waterpark, Malaga
A full day of fun in the water! Cool down with the many water-based attractions: rapids, flumes, toboggans, jacuzzi, large pool with giant waves. (Seasonal opening – usually May to October)
Cordoba
Cordoba has been the capital of both a Roman province and an Islamic caliphate. During the Middle Ages it was the intellectual centre of Europe, with universities, medical schools and vast libraries. Tour the site-rich old town, radiating out from the glorious Mezquita, the Western World’s greatest mosque and also visit the city’s modern, commercial centre.
