MADRID

Las Vegas or Las Matas

1 February

The Madrid suburb of Las Matas is under the influence of Las Vegas. Since two weeks ago everone who comes into this town in the municipality of Las Rozas, is received by an identical copy of the legendary Las Vegas poster. In the middle of the roundabout at the entrance, two blue posts hold the billboard that says: “Welcome to fabulous Las Matas. Great place”. The poster is the work of a student who put it in its current location last Christmas. The town council decided to take it away, but a petition among the residents managed to save it.
