Live music events in Lloret

This Friday 12th July there will be a free live concert  by Big band jazz musicians from Blanes, this will be taking place at 10pm  on the seafront near the Marine Club in Lloret. Also the next day Saturday 13th on the stage at the far end of the beach near the Zoo beach bar and Blue bar there will be another band playing 8pm-9pm.  The same band will be playing again Tuesday 16th 8pm-9pm in the carousel square... The music will be pasodoble & tango style....so get your dancing shoes on!

On Sunday in front of the Town Hall a Music & Dance festival will be taking place starting at 5.30pm and again on Tuesday 17th at 8pm, I believe this event has been organised by the Russian Tourist Association office in Lloret.

Santa Cristina Fiesta

To celebrate the coming Santa Cristina fiesta there will be a competition which all Lloret residents can take part in. The idea is that residents should decorate their balconies in any way they choose and prizes will be awarded for the best 3..the more colouful and elaborate the better! Those interested should contact the Associacio de Veins del Antic before 17th July and balconies  should be decorated between the dates of 23rd -26th July. Here is one example but I'm sure there will be lots more out there when it gets round to judging time.
