For three nights in early July, the Rotonda in Elche's Municipal Park turns into an open-air stage ringed by the city's famous palm grove. Bring a fan and dress for warm evening air; the music leans across jazz, flamenco, blues and Latin jazz, and the bill this year favours real virtuosos over big names for the sake of it.

The opening night (1 July) pairs the Tino Di Geraldo Quartet with Cuban pianist Caramelo de Cuba and a Grammy-winning sax player, and at twelve euros it's the easy one to try on spec. The two pricier nights bring flamenco singer Estrella Morente alongside guitarist Rafael Riqueni, then Raimundo Amador's flamenco-blues-rock on the 3rd. Tickets go through the Gran Teatro box office or lomasticket.com.
