Actual 2027 line-up by day and stage times
These are the stage times published on the festival website. Doors open at 20:00 at Riojaforum, according to the website, and also at that time on the two nights at the Palacio de los Deportes, according to Actualidad Rioja Baja.
- Saturday 2 January, Escenario UNIR: Chicarela (21:00), Iván Ferreiro (22:00), Xoel López (23:00) and Modelo (00:00).

Saturday is pop night. Iván Ferreiro arrives with ‘Hoy x Ayer’, the tour marking 35 years of his career, which revisits his time with Los Piratas and as a solo artist. Xoel López, who started out with Deluxe, comes with ‘Oniria Popular’ (2026) as his latest album. Chicarela open: the rock band from Navarre won the Guerra de Bandas at the previous edition. Modelo close the night: the electronic pop duo from Zaragoza started out busking on the streets of Brighton.
Sunday leans more towards rumba and guitars. Los Delinqüentes return after almost fifteen years with the 25th anniversary tour of ‘El sentimiento garrapatero que nos traen las flores’, with El Canijo de Jerez and Diego ‘Ratón’ and an on-screen tribute to Migue Benítez, who died in 2004. Logroño is one of the stops on a tour that runs throughout 2027. Before them come Ciclonautas, a rock band formed in Navarre, and La Plazuela, the duo from Granada who blend flamenco, funk and electronica.
Kiko Veneno closes the series two months after releasing an album: according to La Ganzúa, ‘Precisamente’, the twenty-first of his career, comes out this Friday, 6 November.
