Madrid’s Street Pianos

PR Campaign
Monday 12th October, 2026

Fundación Occident and the Maria Canals International Piano Competition will place ten grand pianos in Madrid squares and streets for a day, inviting anyone to play or listen. The open-air event turns familiar public spaces into impromptu music venues and brings the piano out of the concert hall.

Why it worked: It flips the “exclusive concert hall” script by dropping grand pianos in high-footfall landmarks on a specific day, guaranteeing organic spectacle and shareable moments.

The lesson: Consider staging a premium, normally off-limits experience in a busy public spot for one day only, and tether it to a simple hashtag.

Does this track sponsored posts, or is it earned media only?

It's built to only track earned media - we use AI to filter out anything that we think is a sponsored placement.

What does "ranked by coverage" mean?
