\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t This week\u2019s lineup has a packed (and varied) agenda across Buenos Aires. A new immersive exhibition at La Rural traces billions of years of evolution, while International Jazz Day brings top-tier musicians to Bebop Club and streaming fans flock to the city\u2019s Exhibition Center for a Netflix-pallooza. Pop and rock fans can catch major local and international acts, and beer lovers can head to a gluten-free brewery night.\u00a0<\/p>\n
