ARCHIVED ARTICLE -ARCHIVED - May 21 Museums Night in Cartagena
Free visits, tours, concerts, workshops, activities and much more on one of the most popular nights of the year in Cartagena
In recent years the Night of the Museums has become one of the most popular dates in the calendar in the historic city of Cartagena, and as the city embraces the post-pandemic atmosphere a huge turn-out is expected at the free events and tours which are being held not only during the evening of May 21 but throughout the weekend.
Many of the numerous museums in Cartagena will be open until 2.00 in the morning, and there are a host of activities, workshops, live music events and other entertainments scheduled throughout the evening.
The sheer scale of the programme makes translating it a massive job (and unfortunately the Town Hall website contains the information only in Spanish), but the following is a list of the main venues. The recommendation is to pick up a map and leaflet once in Cartagena for further orientation! The tourist office should be open on the corner of the Palacio Consistorial and there are likely to be other information points where leaflets and maps can be collected.
Main venues and their events May 20:
Museo del Teatro Romano: Guided tours and children's activities during the day, concerts at 21.30 and 23.00.
Roman Forum Museum: Guided tours until 1.00.
Museo from Arte Moderno (Muram) and Palacio de Aguirre: Exhibitions and guided tours throughout the day, Dance and performance arts at 20.00.
Museo Arqueológico Municipal Enrique Escudero de Castro: Neantherthal guided tours at 11.30 and 12.30, The Heartbeat Jazz Band in concert at 21.30.
Museo Histórico Militar: Guided tours during the day, Big Band in concert at 21.30.
Archivo Municipal: Exhibition on the Cantonal uprising of Cartagena in 1873 and Vent i Pedra in concert at 20.00.
Museo Nacional de Arqueología Subacuática (ARQUA): Activities and tours during the day, youth orchestra concert at 20.30.
Museo Naval / Sala Isaac Peral: Visitors are welcome free of charge from 19.00 to 1.00.
Centro de Interpretación Muralla Púnica: Open from 19.00 to 01.00, jazz concert at 22.00.
Civil War Air Raid Shelter Museum: Children's workshop at 17.00, from 19.00 to 01.00.
Castillo de la Concepción: Visitors are welcome free of charge from 19.00 to 1.00.
Casa de la Fortuna: from 10.00 to 15.00.
Augusteum: The Ancient Egypt exhibition is open free of charge until 1.00.
Fuerte de Navidad: visitors are welcomed between 11.00 and 17:30.
Museo del Foro Romano Molinete: from 19.00 to 01.00.
Museo del Vidrio. MUVI: Open to visitors free of charge until midnight.
Museo Etnográfico de los Puertos de Santa Bárbara: Guided visits at 10.00 and 12.00.
Museo de la Ingeniería: Exhibitions open until 1.00.
Museo Teatro Apolo del Algar: Guided visits at 11.00 and 12.30.
Museo Fundación Boyer Tresaco: from 11.00 to 14.00 and 17.00 to 22.00.
Note: Parking can be very challenging on this evening (see Parking underground car parks and parking open areas) as there are so many people in the city, so allow plenty of time. Time and patience are also needed to move between concerts and it is frequently not possible to get into the events as space is limited, so select one or two, allow time to get there and don't try to jam in too much!
