From the 11th to the 13th of July you can leave your agenda free of events because you will have more important things to do; live to the fullest the concerts of the Bilbao BBK Live 2024 festival.
Don't worry, because the heart of the festival is in Kobetamendi, quite close to the Villa so you can enjoy some of the main monuments of the city of Bilbao. Don't think we're telling you to leave a concert halfway through to see the new exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum or one of the city's best museums. Not at all.
The reason is that the festival has thought of everything, and in addition to its main location, it has a programme of concerts in the most emblematic places in the city. So with so much music, culture and, of course, a nice Pintxos route, the question is, where are you going to sleep?
Bilbao BBK Live 2024
First of all, if you are looking at the festival for the first time, we would like to tell you that it is an event that is growing year after year in importance and that already has a great name at European level.
This musical festival unites a spectacular natural setting, with numerous stages with a variety of musical genres and styles. In addition, the gastronomic offer of the Bilbao BBK Live festival is at the height of Basque gastronomy, internationally recognised, awarded and admired.
Bilbao BBK Live 2024 Festival Venues
Basoa
The forest of music and magic. The best electronic music will be played here, among its seven sound towers. Dance in the middle of nature, melt with it and feel the unison of hundreds of people who have the same passion as you; Bilbao BBk Live.
Lasai
Let's put on the brakes for a moment, feel the music go through your body, through your soul until it reaches the deepest part of your being. At Lasai you can hear and feel the music. The reason for the creation of this corner, with privileged views of Bilbao, is to lower the revolutions of the music, making it calmer and more relaxing.
Bereziak
We leave the line-up of artists of the Bilbao BBk Live festival, and we go to the very heart of Bilbao, we visit some of the most emblematic places of the Villa to attend smaller concerts but with the same charm. Bilbao and live music, you just need to visit a restaurant to try some of the most traditional dishes and your day will be perfect.
Nagusia
This is the main stage, where the big names on the bill will be performing and singing. A meeting point for music and talent, the soul of Bilbao BBk Live, although it is by no means the only one.
San Miguel
In the heart of Kobetamendi, in the middle of nature, you will enjoy new talents, artists who have something to say, who want to add new and innovative ideas to the music scene. Listen to what others will take months to discover. This will also happen on the Txiki stage, although here it seems that the concert is something more intimate and private, that they will play just for you. An unforgettable experience.
Beefeater
The most innovative music takes place under this big tent. The most innovative and transgressive music of different genres is staged here. A place to discover and be surprised.
Firestone
Get ready to dance and jump on this stage, where the most dynamic rock, pop and Hyperpop artists will be performing.
Bilbao BBK Live 2024 line-up
Before talking about any artist, before highlighting some names, we have to put on the table the great conquest of Bilbao BBK Live this year 2024; Grace Jones. The spectacular and timeless Jamaican-American artist will make her big appearance at Bilbao BBK Live 2024 at the age of 76. You read that right, but if you find it hard to believe, it will be even harder to understand after seeing her on stage.
On Thursday, artists such as Massive Attack and The Prodigy will be playing on the main stage, while Cormac, Dj Tennis and other renowned DJs will be playing at Basoa.
Friday is the day we are all waiting for with the appearance of Grace Jones and Underworld. Come to Basoa for the sessions of Dj Gostosob2b Senda Fatal. In Lasai, Miguel Agnes, Baldman and Lucient among others will be playing.
On Saturday we can enjoy Arcade Fire, Jungle or El Columpio Asesino while Bored Lord or Budino will be at Basoa with a grand finale by John Talabot.
