Discover Buenos Aires’ independent art scene — Ticket included
Description
Ticket included! Walk into Buenos Aires’ real night with a local actress who takes you straight into the city’s indie scene. If you like art and want something truly different, this is it! The night kicks off at the most beautiful bookstore in the world, with a quick and playful book-game to break the ice. Then we hit Corrientes — the legendary theater avenue — and jump on the subway like real locals. Our stop? A hidden arts hub where Buenos Aires’ underground indie scene comes alive up close. The show — whether physical theatre, dance, clown, circus arts, or a drag performance — is hand-picked specifically for that night, so every outing is different. These independent gems aren’t on big billboards and often run for just a few days. No Spanish needed — the art speaks for itself. If you want something real, different, totally local, and you’re into art, this is your night. Get ready. This one stays with you

Itinerary
We’ll walk along Avenida Corrientes, the city’s famous theater street — full of life, art, bookstores, and pizzerias. It’s a key spot in Buenos Aires’ cultural scene.
We’ll see the Obelisk, the most iconic monument in Buenos Aires — a symbol of the city and the place where all major celebrations take place.
We’ll take the subway to the theater or cultural venue, just like the locals do. No Ubers — this is the real way to experience the city.
ATTENTION! At this time we will see the show in an alternative art venue - this venue is not always the same, so the location varies. We'll watch the show and get to know the place.
Finally, we will have a drink at a nearby bar to talk about the show, the art scene in Buenos Aires, and any other topic. I met the authentic porteño night!

you’re into the arts and want a real taste of Buenos Aires’ independent scene, this is exactly what you’re looking for. Débora is a sweetheart who hand-picks each event in close communication with you. We had a unique experience at Arthaus Central after meeting at El Ateneo, a stunning former theatre turned into a bookstore. This is something far beyond mainstream tourist activities — a 100% recommendation from me
Débora was very punctual, friendly and attentive at the time of the meeting and during the experience. We had a good time and left very happy to see something different and at the same time wonderful
Excellent experience with Deby, took me to a theater that I would never have reached on my own, and I lived an amazing night where I met real portenios!
Debi took us on a wonderful adventure through the subway and to an awesome community theater for a physical theater experience. It was local and unique and so full of the heart of Buenos Aires. If you don’t want just the usual tourist experience, this is the tour for you.
Debora was an exceptional guide, she knew how to capture our preferences and took us to see a wonderful show: blind theater. It was a very fun sensory experience we felt very well served we were offered complimentary glasses of wine and patties. We ended the tour having a few beers in a bar in Palermo where we could confirm the sensitivity and love for art that this beautiful local artist has. 100 points
We went to see an underground dance show “Bailarinas ingendiadas” at an art house with Debi - and it was an amazing experience! The top-notch local dancers delivered a conceptual, brilliantly-structured story through their approachable and often amusing performance. Thanks to Debi, I discovered a different side of BA’s nightlife. Add this to your must-do list when visiting BA! And Don’t forget to grab a drink with Debi afterward - she’s such a tonic!
It was an amazing experience! Such an incredible way to immerse yourself in the culture. I enjoyed every moment of this tour and Debora was spectacular! Truly recommend to all even non-Spanish speakers!
Thanks Debora. It’s been an interesting experience in alternative theatre scene here in Buenos Aires
Debys is the best person to introduce you to the Bs As theatre scene. We first met her 2 years ago and really enjoyed that experience. She took us to a different show this time and it was even better than the first visit. She really pays attention to your level of Spanish so that you really get to experience the Arts here. And she lets me practice Spanish, which I am learning.
Gracias Joan!! What a lovely surprise to have you back! I always enjoy sharing time with you and your husband; you both are such wonderful company.
Débi gave us a unique glimpse into the vibrant artistic underbelly of Buenos Aires. We went to a couple different locations with live music in the Almagro neighborhood. You're definitely not going to find places like this on an online blog or tripadvisor. Debi also gave us many different recommendations for authentic cultural experiences in Buenos Aires.
