As Madrid's reputation as a vibrant, contemporary arts center has grown, artists and performers have been arriving in droves. Consult the daily listings and Friday city-guide supplements in any of the leading newspapers—El País, El Mundo, or ABC—all of which are fairly easy to understand, even if you don't read much Spanish. Websites such as www.guiadelocio.com and www.timeout.es are also useful.
A rare example of Art Nouveau architecture in Madrid, the alternative Cine Doré shows movies from the Spanish National Film Archives and eclectic foreign films, often at budget rates (and you frequently get a short film or two in addition to a feature). The pink neon-trimmed lobby has a sleek café-bar and a bookshop.
Film festivals, alternative art shows, dance performances, and events for children (in Spanish) are held here. In summer, there are outdoor concerts on the rooftop, which is open to the public and a pleasant place to unwind with a book when nothing is on.
