August 15 Olympics: Free street comedy theatre in Santiago de la Ribera
The Jardines del Príncipe de Asturias host this popular visual interactive comedy
The 55th annual Festival of Theatre, Dance and Music in San Javier continues on Wednesday 20th August with a free performance by the Yllana company of their show “Olympics”, which has met with great success already this year at a number of venues in the Region of Murcia.
The performance begins at 22.00 in the Puerto Tomás Maestre in the Jardines del Príncipe de Asturias in Santiago de la Ribera (click for map), with admission free of charge.
The plot of “Olympics”, an interactive visual comedy, involves four athletes who have not been selected to compete in the Games so they decide to hold their own competition, with the protagonists played by Sergio Alarcón, Elia Estrada, David Terol and Emmanuel Vizcaíno. As they become more and more competitive, plenty of surreal slapstick ensures!

Oficina de Turismo de San Javier
The municipality of San Javier has three main offices giving tourist information to visitors, as well as two information points. The tourist offices are located in Santiago de la Ribera, on the ground floor of the town hall in San Javier and at the start of La Manga. There is also a summer tourist information point located on the seafront in Santiago de la Ribera as well as one at kilometre 12-13 of La Manga del Mar Menor next to Playa Mistral.
Due to its location on the fringes of the Mar Menor and Mediterranean, San Javier has a period of intense summer tourism activity during the peak summer months, although it is popular with retirees of all nationalities out of peak season.
Tickets for the annual San Javier Jazz Festival can be purchased at the Festival office in San Javier Town Hall, Plaza de España.
