Considered to be one of the greatest guitarists of all times, Santana will be performing a double concert on 28 and 29 July in the Complutense University Botanical Gardens (Real Jardín Botánico Alfonso XIII). These two dates form part of his Oneness Tour 2025, which will be stopping off at the latest edition of the Nights at the Botanical Festival.

The Mexican guitarist, Carlos Santana, is a maestro in the fusion between blues, rock and Afro-Latin sounds.  In 1966, he founded the Santana band, which was a pioneer in fusing Latin music with rock. Throughout his career, he has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide, including the sales with his band and in his solo career. He has won ten Grammy Awards, three Latin Grammy Awards and in 2003, Rolling Stone magazine ranked him number 20 on its list of the 100 greatest guitarists of all time.
