Alameda Festival celebrates its fifth anniversary by expanding its concert schedule to new dates.

The municipality of Alameda is preparing for the most ambitious edition of its quintessential music event in 2026. On the occasion of its 5th anniversary, Alameda Festival will debut a venue with a capacity for 9,000 attendees and a schedule that will include more than a dozen events between May and October, turning the town into one of the most active cultural and musical hubs in Andalusia.

The festival will incorporate significant new features, including an official camping area, a space equipped for campers and motorhomes, and a limited number of backstage passes for those seeking an exclusive experience alongside the artists on the lineup. This proposal enhances the audience's experience and expands the town's tourism offerings.

The main event, Alameda Fest, will take place on June 5 and 6, and is part of a new format that could attract more than 40,000 visitors throughout the season, with an estimated economic impact exceeding 2 million euros.

"After four editions of enormous effort, this fifth comes as the consolidation of the project. We have gone through difficult times, especially due to cancellations caused by rain, but we have also experienced an impressive evolution thanks to the support of the public, the team, and collaborating companies. This new format encourages us to continue growing," evaluates Gustavo Gordillo, the festival's general director.

Gordillo also wanted to thank the understanding and support of companies that have supported the festival in critical situations, including Etysa, Soniluc, Rino Seguridad, Varo y Pozo, Morales Iluminación, Alquileres Alquimar, and Ecowc, as well as the numerous artists who have committed to the project.

A privileged location in the heart of Andalusia

The growing success of the festival is also based on its strategic location. Alameda is located right in the heart of Andalusia, just 45 minutes from Málaga, 1 hour from Córdoba and Granada, and 1 hour and 15 minutes from Seville, making it easy for audiences from across the region to attend.

Within a 40-kilometer radius are significant towns such as Osuna and Estepa (Seville), Antequera (Málaga), Lucena and Puente Genil (Córdoba), and Loja (Granada), expanding its area of influence.

Additionally, the municipality boasts one of the most unique viewpoints in the Andalusian territory, the Mirador de la Camorra, from which landscapes and towns belonging to five provinces can be seen, including Jaén. This added value turns the Alameda Festival into an experience that combines music, nature, and tourism.

First confirmations and musical tradition

For its 2026 edition, Alameda Festival has chosen an original way to heat up the atmosphere prior to its celebration: during the months of December, January, and February, every Monday they will announce the confirmation of a new artist on the lineup. The first two confirmed for the next edition of the festival have already been revealed in recent weeks: Las Rodes and Benito Kamelas.
