Escenario Puente del Rey

In Madrid Río, at one of the entrances to Casa de Campo Park, there lies the Puente del Rey Stage, just between Palacio de los Vargas and Huerta de la Partida. It hosts all kinds of shows: music, dance, flamenco, zarzuela, musicals, and more.

The bridge was designed by Royal Architect Isidro González Velázquez (a disciple of Juan de Villanueva) and built in the nineteenth century. In its early days, it could only be used by the King, giving access to Casa de Campo from the Royal Palace. When the park was opened to the public in 1931, the bridge was widened. Today, it’s one of the main entrances to Madrid Río.
