OpenSky Alcobendas will bring Taburete, Pignoise and Ara Malikian to Parque de Andalucía
This summer, Alcobendas adds a new music event aiming to carve out a place on the Comunidad de Madrid calendar. The OpenSky festival will come to Parque de Andalucía from 3 to 5 July with three days of open-air concerts, a broad-ranging line-up, and day tickets already available.
Friday 3 July will kick off with a night for those who grew up with pop guitars and 2000s anthems. Pignoise will be the main draw of the day, joined by Besmaya, Hey Kid y Vera Fauna—four acts that blend nostalgia, indie, pop and more current sounds. Afterwards, Barce y Jorge Vaquero will take over with DJ sessions to keep the atmosphere going.
Saturday 4 July will be the turn of Taburete, one of the most recognisable names in recent Spanish pop. The day will also feature Paula Mattheus, Inazio y Avenida, a young band opening the stage before the festival moves into a more singalong and festive night. The evening will once again close with DJs, with Juan Valiente y Jorge Vaquero.
Sunday 5 July will see a complete change of pace with Ara Malikian. His instrumental show will bring the curtain down on OpenSky with a more theatrical and emotional performance, aimed at a wide audience and those looking for a different experience from the classic summer festival format.
The organisers, Emotional Events and the Ayuntamiento de Alcobendas, have already started selling day tickets and warn that general passes will soon go up in price. The aim is to attract both local residents and people from Madrid city and other parts of the northern metropolitan area.
Parque de Andalucía has for years been one of Alcobendas’ main green spaces. In summer, its open areas make it possible to turn concerts and cultural activities into evening plans without leaving the town. With OpenSky, the park gains a new use: a music stage for those seeking festivals that are more comfortable, closer and less crowded than the big venues in the capital.
