The art of living San Sebastian
Embark on a cultural and culinary journey at Tabakalera, the epicenter of contemporary art in Donostia. Celebrate Eduardo Chillida's legacy on his centenary and savor local cuisine in an innovative setting.
Donostia-San Sebastián is a city that captivates with its beauty, gastronomy, and culture. At the heart of the city lies a unique space that brings together all these qualities: Tabakalera. This former industrial building, now a cultural center, has become a cornerstone of cultural life in Donostia.
If you are staying at Lasala Plaza Hotel, you must not miss the opportunity to visit Tabakalera.
Tabakalera offers a wide and diverse cultural program, featuring exhibitions, concerts, theater, dance, cinema, and much more. Across its various spaces, you will find something for every taste and age.
This collective exhibition brings together works by contemporary artists who use images as tools to reflect on current social and political realities.
This interactive exhibition invites us to immerse ourselves in different soundscapes from around the world. Through audiovisual installations, we can listen to the sounds of the sea, rain, or the city.
This exhibition, part of the centenary celebrations of Eduardo Chillida's birth, explores the relationship between the Basque sculptor and the Alavese painter Jesus Uriarte. Through a selection of works by both artists, the exhibition invites us to reflect on the friendship and creative dialogue between two great figures of Basque art.
This year marks the 100th anniversary of Eduardo Chillida's birth, one of the most universal and influential Spanish artists of the 20th century. With roots in the Basque Country, Chillida embraced global horizons and transformed them into unique spaces for societal encounters. The centenary celebration is an opportunity to promote not only his work but also his values, sensitivity, and contributions to the history of contemporary art.
Tabakalera also features various spaces to enjoy leisure and gastronomy. On the ground floor, you'll find the TABA café, where you can have a coffee, a beer, or a pintxo. On the terrace, there's the LABe restaurant, offering avant-garde cuisine with local products.
TABA café is the perfect spot for a coffee, a beer, or a pintxo. It offers a wide variety of quality products made with fresh, local ingredients.
