Assuming a leading role in fostering strong relationships between the U.S. and Spain, the ACM actively represents the American community in Madrid with a close collaboration and support of the U.S. Embassy, the diplomatic community, the business sector, and educational as well as philanthropic institutions.

It is 50% American, 30% Spanish, 10% dual citizens and 10% other nationalities. It is an entity that embodies the fast-pace, high level, and grand expectations of its membership. The ACM is the “go-to” organization for the international executive living in Madrid. After all, today’s professional combines free time with their work, and the American Club of Madrid is the catalyst for important professional and social interactions.
The ACM holds events in first class venues, which are open to the general public, private “invitation-only” events and certain “members only” activities. The Club was founded in 1952 by CEOs of various American companies based in Madrid. In the 50s and 60s, when Madrid was a favorite location for filming the grand American movies of the period, several American celebrities such as Eva Gardner, Charlton Heston and Tyronne Power were also associated with the ACM.
