To commemorate International Women's Day, which is held on 8 March, Madrid is hosting a new edition of the female creation festival, Ellas Crean. This cultural event organised by the Institute for Women and Equal Opportunities is holding its 22nd edition from 5 to 15 March 2026 with its classic multidisciplinary programme that brings together references and new female figures from the world of film, literature, music, theatre and many other disciplines to fight together for political and social change.
For yet another year, and on such an important date as International Women's Day, Ellas Crean celebrates the female creation festival that advocates gender justice. An initiative that will include a multi-disciplinary programme in which women of great talent will reveal all of their potential to fill museums, theatres and music halls, cultural centres and other places with shows created by and featuring women.
