Heineken Greenspace was set up last year as an international cultural regeneration initiative of the urban spaces with the city of Valencia as the first venue of the event. This year the capital of Turia will also be hosting the second year of Heineken Greenspace, which begins on 2nd November and yet again backs young creativity and aims to give space to more original ideas as regards design, music and audiovisual creation.
The first year began with the restoration of some unused warehouses situated in the street Juan Verdaguer, in the immediate vicinity of the Port of Valencia. During 2006, these warehouses have been restored with the aim of turning them into facilities serving the creative community.
If you are a designer, musician or audiovisual artist, you live in Spain and you are between 18 and 35 years of age then you can participate through a proposal capable of interpreting what your idea of a green space is, in your own particular creative discipline.
This second year will take place between 2nd and 10th November and in Space One will include the participation of Joan as Police Woman, Juliette & The Links and Herbert Live on 3rd; Jamie Cullum, Niño Josele and Vanexxa on 4th; Fon Roman and Jorge Drexler on 9th and Fangoria, Moby Special and Appearance on 10th.
