In mid‑July 2026, festivals in Spain’s Córdoba and Granada highlighted two celebrated performers: flamenco legend Blanca del Rey and early 20th‑century ballet pioneer known as La Argentina. A few days later, Argentine cultural events took place abroad and at home. At the Warsaw Multicultural Centre, Argentine dancers Paulina and Alejandro led a two‑hour workshop teaching local participants popular folk dances. In Córdoba, Argentina, a weekend programme marked the centenary of composer Astor Piazzolla with performances at Teatro Góngora, and a free interactive dance‑theatre piece was staged at the MMAU. Together, the events illustrate a flurry of international and domestic activities that pay tribute to Argentine and Spanish dance heritage.
