Tío Tours breaks down a few exciting things happening in Madrid in November 2025

As autumn deepens into winter, Madrid lights up with a rich blend of festivals, exhibitions, and seasonal cheer. If you’ll be in the city this November, here’s a curated guide to what not to miss – from jazz to artisan fairs and the opening of Madrid’s Christmas magic.

JazzMadrid International Festival

One of the highlights of the month for music lovers is JazzMadrid, running through November across various venues in the city. Expect a mix of Spanish and international jazz acts, performances, talks, and more, all staged at cultural landmarks such as Fernán Gómez and the Biblioteca Nacional. If you’re in Madrid for more than a few days, check the programme close to your visit and book ahead as some concerts sell out.
