“Artes Escénicas y Música. Ministerio de Cultura.” April 2008. Gobierno de España, Madrid, Spain. 27 May 2008 http://www.mcu.es/artesEscenicas/CE/Festivales/Festivales.html.
This is the website for the Spanish Ministry of Culture's Institute of the Scenic Arts and Music, which promotes, provides financial support, and publicizes information about the performing arts such as theater, music and dance Spain—all of which are integral parts of the Spanish fiesta. This site will be of interest to those working to find up-to-date information about festivals. The Institute sponsors a number of the festivals in the country, and information about them may be found on the site. These include: the Festival Iberoamericano de Teatro de Cádiz; the Muestra de Teatro Español de Escritores Contemporáneos de Alicante; and the Festival Internacional de Música y de Danza de Granada. Anyone beginning work on the Spanish fiesta culture should find this a useful site.
“Tourism in Spain.” 2008. Presidencia del Gobierno. 1 June 2008. http://www.la-moncloa.es/
This is the website that has the English title of the Presidency of the Government, which provides links to various government departments in Spain. This is a credible site because it is maintained by the government of Spain and will have the most up-to-date, accurate information about the Spanish festivals. Furthermore, it is an important site because the majority of the festivals in Spain are funded by the government. This website is useful to journalists for several reasons. First, it is an easy site to navigate, especially by using the search box to type helpful terms that will lead the journalist to related links. The second helpful part of this website is a link on the sidebar of the webpage called Tourism in Spain. This link will take the researcher to another page that focus on touristic aspects of the country, in particular, the fiestas. The links provides multimedia resources about various fiestas, including video clips, audio clips and photo galleries.
