Open-air movies at the Amphitheatre of Parque Centenario are an option for kids (Fridays & Saturdays at 8:30pm), along with circus shows at Polo Circo and special activities on Saturdays and Sundays at Feria de Mataderos.

The adult equivalent for free films has been established at the Rose Garden on Av. Libertador & Sarmiento, on weekends at 9pm. Stalls for those without cars will also be provided. The list from the time of writing includes “The Avengers”, “Querida voy a comprar cigarrillos y vuelvo”, “REC3”, “Masterplan”, “El último Elvis” and “Elefante Blanco”.

Also on weekends, milongas and tango lessons will be going on throughout the city, and January 26th marks the beginning of these. Ballet shows start tomorrow on 22nd January and run until 24th at the Parque Centenario, whilst on the 21 and 22 February, the Ballet of Teatro General San Martín will be performing.
