On April 27, the fourth edition of Concéntrico, the International Festival of Architecture and Design of Logroño, was inaugurated, which can be visited until May 1 (exhibitions are held until May 20). With its actions, the Festival puts in value those spaces of the Historic Center of the city that usually go unnoticed during the day to day.

The interventions are chosen by contest and are carried out respecting the environment in which they are raised. The Festival presents for five days different actions with more than 70 architects, designers and artists, from different countries, participating in the 14 urban facilities, 4 exhibitions (until May 20), meetings, performances, workshops and presentations.

Thirty institutions, entities and companies are added to this that has turned out to be the most international edition, with the participation of Plastique Fantastique, Berlin; AA Architectural Association Interprofessional Studio, London; Jorge Penadés, Malaga; David Bestué, Barcelona; Davide Marchetti, Rome; Collectif Parenthèse, Paris; Mjölk, Praga, Blurarquitectura, Logroño; Jairo Rodríguez Burgos; Sebastián Andrés Podestá and Lucas Seré Pletzer, Buenos Aires; Fernando Cruzado, Julia Díaz, F. Javier Fernández and Ane Villaverde, Andalucía and Basque Country and Miriam Alonso, Patricia Ramos and Paula Mena, Madrid. As a novelty, the Escuela Superior de Arquitectura of San Sebastián participates with an intervention as a guest school of the festival and the Escuela Superior de Diseño de La Rioja  in its gardens as an associated school.
