BBK Festival

Now in it's ninth year, the BBK Live Festival is just around the corner. Tucked in the heart of Bilbao, amongst the majestic Arriáiz mountains, a pilgrimage of 40,000 European Pop and Rockers await you. The festival combines the raw aesthetics of Northern Spain with the very best acts from the internationally adored mainstream and other alternative scenes.
Held on its own specially created complex on the side of the sheer peaks, the three day event has something for everyone. Whether you're there to bask in the acoustics of your favourite acts, inhale the beauty of the scenic backdrop or take in the vibrant Spanish culture with the free shuttle buses to the local cities. It compromises all this as well as being complimented by an impressive line-up that includes much loved heavyweights such as The Prodigy, MGMT, Franz Ferdinand, Black Keys, Phoenix and Bastille.
