Former warehouse turned public space for the arts and literature. It sounds cool and actually is!! Going inside you'll be struck first by the unusual columns that connect three main upper level salons with the main {1st} floor. Each one is a work of art, and in some if the lower and upper level floors, you will find galleries exhibiting contemporary art. There's a library on the main and upper levels that I hear has an amazing view from its upper level and a cinema in the lower level. There are several cultural, musical, and artistic events that take place in this center really close to the San Mamés station (or connected to it?} and it's almost all free!
Great community centre.this place is amazing. Very impressive architecture. As you step in, you are positively surprised by the more than 40 columns on the ground floor. The centre has a gym, a library - both very well equipped -, restaurants (with a rooftop terrace), and it hosts events. It also has a few concept shops and space for workshops and concerts. Look for the pool on ceiling from the ground floor. Very cool
Fantastic place with so many different things to do. Tonight there was a 30 piece band/orchestra performing in the communal area. I went to the library to study but it was great having live music in the background.
Interesting interiors vs exteriors design. It is a huge cultural center hosting different activities every day. Also fitness activities.
It is a nice cultural center with a spacious hall where kids can roam around. There is also a busy restaurant with some nice food. There is another fancier one on a higher floor which we did not test, though.
The gym and pool are just ideal. Best to go in the morning as afternoons the pool for example and changing rooms are full of the after school crowd (kids and parents). There is also have what can be called a great library (That seems to be full all the time re the available work spaces). If you want to you can go to Golem (Yes you are reading right) cinema. You might be lucky and find a movie or two in English. Best, to plan to watch Spanish movies in order to avoid disapontmment :).
Just came for drinks at the roof top bar. Not the easiest to find your way to 😎but we'll worth it. Great bar,great view and great cocktails
Beautifully designed cultural centre where you can freely walk through, view the amazing architecture, splendid bars and rooftop lounge, restaurants, open library, cinema, and so many more things. A must-see.
There is a big public library here. Have exposition centre, cinema halls,gymnasium, swimming pool,restaurants and shops. Lots of activities are organized here. Many national and international conference are held here. Is a very good place to pass the time whiles in bilbao.
Delicious building. A confident, accessible flagship venue for a warm and open city. Total delight. Check website for events, films and conference.
