Here are some great tips if you are invited to an event.
For formal meetings, it is acceptable to arrive on time, but Spanish people are usually flexible with time. If the host offers food and drink, then it is considered courteous to have a little gift with. It can be flowers, a bottle of wine, or a little appetizer. Even when the host asks you not to bring anything, as Hilario did before, it is recommended to offer something. This can be applied to either formal or informal events.
For more informal gatherings, it is normal to help clean the table, wash it up and stuff. It may seem strange if you start to clear the table, but notice what the other guests do and follow their example.
