Córdoba, Argentina's second city, offers a budget-friendly cultural weekend with a variety of events. On Saturday, August 22, the Orquesta Sinfónica de Córdoba performs Verdi's *La forza del destino* and Bizet's *Carmen* at the Teatro del Libertador General San Martín, with tickets ranging from $3.30 to $13.40. The following day, the Coro Polifónico joins the symphony.

On Sunday, August 23, the Festival La Cultura Comunitaria es Real takes place at the Teatro Real, San Jerónimo 66, for free. The program includes performances by three dance organizations, Murga Vientos del Sur, and the Orilleros de la Cañada. The following Friday and Saturday, August 21 and 22, respectively, the Comedia Cordobesa presents *La fabulosa historia de los inolvidables Marrapodi*, a comedy about the history of Argentine theatre, at the Sala Carlos Giménez inside the Teatro Real.

Tickets for this production are priced at $6.70, with proceeds benefiting the cancer charity LALCEC.
