Mad Cool Festival

The Espacio Mad Cool (located in Valdebebas-Ifema) will host on 8, 9, 10 and 11 July 2020 the fifth edition of the Mad Cool Festival, a cultural event in which different artistic expressions coexist in the same space in a sustainable and responsible manner. Great stars such as Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Pixies, Deftones, Foals, Jamie Cullum, Wolf Alice, Tove Lo, Twenty One Pilots and alt-J have already confirmed their attendance for the new edition.

The artist Taylor Swift will head the bill for Mad Cool 2020 offering her first concert in Spain after an absence of nine years. The singer, composer and producer will perform her best known hits as well as the songs from her new album Lover.

The second great confirmation is American singer and songwriter Billie Eilish. The artist has managed to revolutionize the musical scene and connect with an entire generation thanks to her style. Twenty One Pilots, a duo formed by Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun, will not miss the appointment.

The festival will also feature Pixies, the band of Black Francis, Joey Santiago and David Lovering considered one of the most influential formations in the history of rock. The British alt-J trio formed by Joe Newman, Gus Unger-Hamilton and Thom Green will once again make the Spanish public vibrate and Swedish singer-songwriter Tove Lo will take to the stage to show off her unique sound of electronic rhythms, catchy melodies and confessional lyrics.

The 2020 edition is rounded off with the presence of numerous artists, including Blood Red Shoes, Cage The Elephant, CCL, Deftones, Diplo, Faith No More, Finneas, Foals, HAIM, Hinds, Jamie Cullum, Khalid, Kings of Leon, London Grammar, Major Lazer, Marika Hackman, Modeselektor, Natos y Waor, Nothing But Thieves, Octo Octa, Pale Waves, Paul Weller, Pixies, Refused, Richard Hawley, SFDK, Sigrid, Sports Team, The Killers, The Rapture, Tom Grennan, Tones and I, Tycho, Wolf Alice and YUNGBLUD, among others.

Three days for all tastes

Numerous artists of first line national and international as well as the coexistence of different artistic disciplines and everything in an incomparable environment is what awaits the attendees of this new edition.

Mad Cool Festival was awarded the NME Award for Best Poster of the Year 2018 by the British magazine NME, one of the most prestigious in the sector, for a poster that included artists such as Pearl Jam, Arctic Monkeys, Depeche Mode or Queens of the Stone Age.

Mad Cool emerged from the concept of regeneration, becoming an alternative of content and form, a proposal for a society that has evolved towards innovation, quality and efficiency. It goes beyond the typical music festival and elevates the idea of shared leisure by proposing a new model in which the city and the environment are allies.
