Is Monday 2 November a holiday where you live?

1 November 2026 is a Sunday. Under the 2026 national list (BOE, Resolución de 17 de octubre de 2025, BOE-A-2025-21667 ↗) the Autonomous Communities may replace the Monday rest after a national holiday that falls on a Sunday. The annex has a row “2 Día siguiente a Todos los Santos” marked “Fiesta Nacional respecto de la que no se ha ejercido la facultad de sustitución” for nine communities. Municipalities can add up to two local holidays of their own, so this table is a guide, not payroll advice.

Led Silhouette, ULTIMATUM, dance at Centro Danza Matadero, Madrid

Centro Danza Matadero - CDM

On Friday 30 October 2026 at 20:00 the Centro Danza Matadero in Madrid hosts Led Silhouette in ULTIMATUM, within the New Creators 2026 programme. The listing describes a proposal born of collapse, emotional, climatic and political, in which dance, theatre and film are mixed. It is a work that explores the contradictions of the human being, with themes such as isolation and social decay, a reflection on our fragility in a world that seems to be crumbling, and an urgent call to look at the present. The piece asks how we live with the feeling that the world is heading toward inevitable conflict and yet we carry on as if we had no responsibility. The company, winner of the El Ojo Crítico Dance Award in 2024, stages a landscape of dispute where the body insists, wears out and gets up again, and it dances possession, inheritance and the desire for control. Tickets start at 18 euros.

After drawing international attention with releases on cult labels such as Livity Sound and AD93, he released in June 2026 his new album Please on the Norwegian label Smalltown Supersound, which the page calls one of the key works of the year and his best record so far.

Goya, pinturas negras: puppet theatre at Teatre Arniches

Teatre Arniches

On Friday 30 October 2026 at 20:30 the Teatre Arniches in Alicante stages Goya, pinturas negras by Bambalina Teatre Practicable. The piece approaches Goya's creative process in his final period, the black paintings he made on the walls of the Quinta del Sordo, using contemporary puppetry and objects with a strong aesthetic. Written and directed by Jaume Policarpo, it is performed by Àngel Fígols, Ruth Atienza and Maribel Bayona with live music by Gonzalo Manglano. Drawing on the paintings, Goya's biography and Spanish society of his time, the company offers a sensory immersion into the mind of a genius. The show lasts 70 minutes and the listing shows no ticket price, so check the theatre box office. A theatre night on a Friday works well alone, and the shared silence of a puppet show gives you plenty to talk over afterwards. «Un acostament al procés creatiu de Goya centrat en la seua última etapa, la de les pintures negres.» Starts 20:30, ends about 21:40.

Going alone? What to expect. Public events like these are mostly drop-in or small groups, so arriving solo is normal. Arrive ten minutes early, note the official start time, and keep an exit plan. Over a long weekend, transport and opening hours change: check the organiser’s page and your return route before you go.

Organ recital Bach, Glass and Pärt at San Nicolás, Pamplona

Iglesia de San Nicolás

On Saturday 31 October 2026 at 18:00 the church of San Nicolás in Pamplona closes the Navarre Organ Music Cycle with a recital by the organist Lucie Zákova. The programme, titled Bach, Glass, Pärt... and back, pairs Johann Sebastian Bach with Philip Glass and Arvo Pärt, from a baroque prelude and fugue to the minimalist Mad Rush and Pärt's Trivium, and includes Bach's arrangement of a Vivaldi concerto. The listing says the church organ is surprisingly versatile and that the contrast runs from baroque dynamism to contemplative calm. Entry is free until the church is full, and we estimate about an hour. Sitting in a church listening to an organ is an easy, quiet outing alone, with no need to talk. «Un contraste radical entre el dinamismo del Barroco y la actitud contemplativa de Pärt» Starts 18:00, ends about 19:00.

Billy Wilder's Irma la Douce at the Filmoteca, València

Edificio Rialto

On Friday 30 October 2026 at 18:00 the Filmoteca de València shows Irma la Douce (Irma la dulce), the 1963 comedy by Billy Wilder, in the Edificio Rialto on the Plaça de l'Ajuntament. The film runs 140 minutes and stars Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine, with music by André Previn. The programme note describes a naive rookie policeman patrolling a Paris district who knows nothing about the world around him and keeps getting it wrong, and quotes Jean-Luc Godard praising the performances and the colours. The Filmoteca lists a general ticket at 2.5 euros, with 1.5 euros for people under 30, students and retired people. A repertory screening is one of the easiest plans alone: the lights go down, everyone watches the same thing, and you can talk about it afterwards. «Un policía novato y bastante ingenuo que patrulla por las calles del barrio chino de París no tiene ni idea acerca del negocio de la prostitución y mete la pata constantemente.» Starts 18:00, ends about 20:20.

Questions people ask

Is Monday 2 November 2026 a holiday in Spain?

Not nationally. 1 November 2026 is a Sunday, and the 2026 BOE list (BOE-A-2025-21667) shows 2 November as a holiday in nine communities: Andalucía, Aragón, Asturias, Canarias, Castilla-La Mancha, Castilla y León, Extremadura, Comunidad de Madrid and Navarra. Elsewhere, including Cataluña and the País Vasco, check your regional and local calendar.

Can I do the All Saints long weekend alone?

Yes. We list 76 events in 12 Spanish cities between 30 October and 2 November, plus always-on run clubs, walks, book clubs and game nights. Check each organiser’s page for the time and price.

Why are some cities thin or empty?

This page uses the open city calendars in our data as of 2026-11-15. They publish 2–6 weeks ahead, so more events appear through October, and nothing here is invented. Where a day is empty, use the always-on ideas.
