Hailed as one of the capital city´s most spectacular annual events, the Christmas Light and Sound Festival attracts thousands of visitors from all over Spain, who marvel at this breathtaking display.
Held at the Plaza Cibeles, which although this is essentially a roundabout, it is arguably the most symbolic landmark in Madrid, as it is the point where three of the city´s main roads converge. Situated in the centre of the Plaza is the impressive Fountain of Cibeles, with its statue of the goddess of fertility, being carried on a lion-drawn chariot.
The Feliz Navidad Madrid celebrations kick off with a stunning and dramatic display of pyrotechnics, music and images, bringing together some of the most incredible technical wizardry ever seen.
Illuminating the buildings surrounding the square, this is an awesome visual display,using some of the most recent techniques and choreography, to make a superb exhibition.
