The event will mark the start of distribution of Babylon on US soil, a country where Spanish is the language with the biggest number of speakers after English and the foreign language that attracts the most students. According to the Cervantes Institute, there are at least six million students of Spanish and 60% of pupils  in the American teaching system choose it as their first foreign language. 

Coinciding with the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, the event will bring together representives of the leading Spanish cultural organizations based in New York, members of the Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the United States, and US companies and bodies with links to Spain. Also present will be representatives of Spanish business and culture, among them the president of the Room Mate Hotels chain, Enrique Sarasola

Guests will be able to taste a menu of Spanish tapas in the exceptional ambience of the Room Mate Grace, located right in the heart of Manhattan. The event will also mark the opening of an exhibition of urban art featuring eight top artists on the New York scene, among them Blade and Cope2, who will be interpreting with their own works their visions of Spanish culture. My name is Calle is the title of a show that is being organized by Babylon in conjunction with Nobulo, the organization dedicated to promotion of culture, and  Montana Colors, the company from the Catalonia region that is a world leader in the manufacture of paints designed specifically for graffiti and urban art.

Spain loves New York will  also be committing itself to promoting Spanish fashion with an exhibition featuring the latest designs of the young Spanish fashion house Potipoti. The ‘graphic fashion’ brand, with designs influenced by  pop art, music and street art, will be presenting an advance of its spring and summer  2011 collections. 

The party will be brought to a close by one of the most appealing acts on the Spanish electronic music scene. Seville duo Los Rumbers, Pete Lamotta and Dr. Guassa, will be presenting numbers from their first work, Flamenco Breaks, an  explosive mix of bits of flamenco with funky, break, hip hop and drum & bass rhythms.
