There are any number of festivals of music, dance and theatre in Spain and Portugal. Without undervaluing the rest, the highlights are to be found in Granada, Madrid and Lisbon.
 

Aragon - "Camino de Santiago" International Music Festival
June 8th-June 21st, 2001.
This interesting idea consists of holding concerts at various historical places along the Way of Saint James in Aragon. Unfortunately, the web page has not been updated since last year.

Barcelona - GREC Festival d'Estiu
June 25th - August 2nd, 2001.
Grec is the symbolic name popularly given to this summer festival, for the "Greek" theatre of that name where it began, twenty-five years ago.

Granada - 50 Festival Internacional de Música y Danza
June 22nd - July 8th, 2001.
The most venerable of Spain's festivals is celebrating its 50th anniversary with, e.g., scores by Albéniz, Falla, Debussy, Rodrigo, Barrios or Tomás Marco.

Santander International Festival

Second only to Granada in venerablity, the Santander International Festival is also celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.
