Best music festivals in Madrid

Noches del Botánico 2025

June and july

If you’re looking for music, you’ll love this first stop, it will be pure music to your ears. Literally. Madrid is organising a series of concerts for two months at the Real Jardín Botánico Alfonso XIII, in the Ciudad Universitaria.

These concert series bring pure talent as well as big names in national and international music. And we don’t say so, judge for yourself; Roxette, Lori Meyers, Carlos Santana or Fangoria. How does that sound?

The list of concerts is already available and we recommend you buy your tickets as soon as possible because the quality of the artists is on a par with the charm of the venue. The Botanical Nights offer magical nights of music with a unique atmosphere. Experience it, and then tell us about it.

A Summer Story 2025

20th and 21st june

Now it’s time to start with the festivals as we know them, you know, hours and hours of uninterrupted music, fun and lots of dancing. It couldn’t be called anything else, long live the summer.

But first of all, what are you going to listen to here? If you’re looking for reggaeton, move on to the following festivals, because this is about something else. Here, in Arganda del Rey, more specifically in its Ciudad del Rock, you can listen to electronic music.

The list of DJs on the bill will give you an idea of what the line-up is all about; Zonneveld, Hardwell and AfroJack among others.

Love the Twenties 2025

21st june

Do you remember the year 2000? No, it wasn’t a moment ago, or five years ago, or ten, you were probably in better physical shape, younger, and if you like music and fun, you might love the music at this festival… even if you still went to school.

IFEMA opens the door to nostalgia and your desire to party; Merche, Sonia y Selena, David de María, Chenoa,… you can see where Love the Twenties wants to take you, right?

Then don’t think twice, buy tickets for you and your friends, because we assure you that the twelve hours that the festival lasts will give you energy to eat up the summer.

Love the 90´sfestival 2025

14th june

If you are even more nostalgic and feel that the 2000’s was two evenings ago, let’s take it a step further. Let’s go back to the 90’s, to the decade of dancing and partying. 24 hours that pay tribute to the party, the fun and, of course, the music.

Snap!, Milli Vanilli, well actually just one of its members, Blackbox, Dj Sash, and representing national talent, groups as well known and loved as Seguridad Social, although the list keeps growing week by week.

If you have any doubts, put the name of some of the bands on YouTube, remember their greatest hits, and there is no doubt that before the third song you are entering their website to buy tickets. It’s a wonderful experience.

Festival Río Babel 2025

4th and 5th july

This is the time of huge festivals, with a tremendous impact on the national and international cultural and leisure agenda. Madrid’s Caja Mágica hosts one of the biggest events on the calendar, which combines music with laughter and shows.

Yes, humour is an essential part of the festival, its soul is made up of laughter and music. That’s why you’ll see the best of national comedy with artists like Joaquín Reyes, Ignatius and Iggy Rubín. The three of them alone are worth paying a ticket for, but if you add to that the list of musicians, then you’re left with a spectacular festival.

Estopa, Yerai Cortés, Bebe and Cypress Hill are just some of the artists that are coming up week after week, making this Rio Babel festival more and more interesting, which is set to become one of the most important summer festivals in the country.

MAD COOL 2025

From 10th to 13th july  

As promised, we continue to move between big names in festivals, both nationally and in Europe. Mad Cool is one of those festivals that grows year after year, making a name for itself and becoming a must-attend event. Those who try it, repeat.

Iberdrola music fuses the best music with a bit of rock, a bit of pop and a pinch of indie, a truly explosive recipe. To give you an idea of the diversity, you’ll be able to see the incombustible Iggy Pop, Arde Bogotá, Alanis Morissette and Olivia Rodrigo. What do you think? A bit of everything, but all of immense quality and talent.

RBF Reggaeton Beach Festival 2025

19th and 20th july  

At the RBF Madrid venue it gets messy, but it gets really messy. It’s a big time party with capital letters. If you like reggaeton or just dance and enjoy yourself, come and visit us for two days you won’t forget.

As is tradition at the Reggaeton Beach Festival, the names of confirmed artists are being announced little by little. Although there is no doubt that the best of reggaeton will be there, we already know that artists like Noriel, Justin Quiñes or Luar la L will be there.
