La Cubierta, Leganés

La Cubierta, Leganés, Concert hall and sports venue in Leganés, Spain.

La Cubierta is a multipurpose venue with a retractable roof in Leganés, conceived as a bullring and inaugurated on 31 July 1997 with a bullfighting event featuring José Miguel Arroyo Delgado, Enrique Ponce and Francisco Rivera Ordóñez. It occupies a block bounded by Avenida de Gibraltar, Calle del Maestro, Calle de AC/DC, Calle de Rosendo and Plaza de Joan Manuel Serrat. Its capacity was then 8,500 spectators; the English Wikipedia gives 10,000.

La Cubierta opened on 31 July 1997 with a bullfighting event featuring José Miguel Arroyo Delgado, Enrique Ponce and Francisco Rivera Ordóñez, before a capacity of 8,500 spectators. Through the 2000s the ring gained a poor reputation for frequent brawls at the nightlife venues around it, and the number of bullfights held each year declined steadily after the opening.

The streets around the ring are named after rock acts: calle de AC/DC and calle de Rosendo, alongside plaza de Joan Manuel Serrat. Concerts held here have included The Chemical Brothers (1999), Rage Against the Machine (2000), Deep Purple (2006), Scorpions (2008) and Judas Priest (2011).

La Cubierta occupies a block bounded by Avenida de Gibraltar, Calle del Maestro, Calle de AC/DC, Calle de Rosendo and Plaza de Joan Manuel Serrat, in Leganés south of Madrid. The retractable roof means events go ahead whatever the weather; check which of the surrounding streets is open for access on the day of a bullfight or concert.

The venue sits on a block bounded by Avenida de Gibraltar, Calle del Maestro, Calle de AC/DC, Calle de Rosendo and Plaza de Joan Manuel Serrat, streets named after rock bands and singers. Its retractable roof lets it serve as a bullring or a concert hall; The Chemical Brothers played here in 1999 and Rage Against the Machine in 2000.
