On May 8, a shopping mall in Buenos Aires will transform into a free stage where you can enjoy a preview of Billy Elliott, the musical premiering very soon on Corrientes Avenue.
If you’ve seen the movie, you’re bound to love seeing yourself surrounded by dancers who will use the Galerías Pacífico shopping mall as a stage to give you a sneak peek of this musical coming to Corrientes Avenue in 2026.
Galerías Pacífico turns into a theater with a flash mob featuring part of the musical’s cast. Have you ever found yourself surrounded by a flash mob? It’s one of those moments that start suddenly and force you to stop, look, and feel the music. It’s unique! Don’t miss the Billy Elliott flash mob on May 8 at 4 p.m.
Shopping Fest and how to win tickets
But the fun doesn’t end there. From May 8 to 10, Shopping Fest offers additional perks and promotions at participating stores, with discounts of up to 25% and interest-free installments with Banco Galicia cards.
And there’s a prize too: if you present receipts totaling $150,000 or more, you’ll be entered to win tickets to the premiere of Billy Elliot.
Las Galerías Pacífico is a National Historic Monument and has always had a strong connection to art. This time, that identity becomes literal: a shopping mall that, for a while, stops being a shopping mall and becomes a stage.
