Calçofest

Calçofest brings together two November traditions in Valls: the start of the calçotada season and a marathon of Catalan-language music. The second edition takes place on Saturday 21 November 2026 at the Esplanada del Fornàs, under a 5,000-square-metre marquee, with Figa Flawas, The Tyets, Els Pets, Els Amics de les Arts and 31 FAM between 17:00 and 5:30. In the morning and at midday there is a free programme in the town centre, castells and a popular calçotada.

Its debut, in November 2025, sold out its 10,000 tickets and demand forced the festival to move to the Fornàs. For 2026, the website showed 70% of capacity sold in early November.

Calçofest 2026 line-up and stage times

The line-up is complete and the schedule is confirmed. Everything takes place on a single stage, under the marquee, so there are no clashes:

• 16:30 · Doors open
• 17:00 · Maria Jaume
• 18:10 · Els Amics de les Arts
• 19:35 · Els Pets
• 21:10 · Figa Flawas
• 22:45 · The Tyets
• 00:20 · 31 FAM
• 01:55 · Malifeta
• 03:15 · Coco
• 04:20 · DJ Trapella
• 05:30 · Close

The Figa Flawas concert closes the ‘L'Última Arrencada’ tour and is the first time the duo has played with a band. The night opens with Maria Jaume's singer-songwriter pop and two veterans of Catalan pop rock, Els Amics de les Arts and Els Pets, then turns towards urban music from eleven o'clock: The Tyets, the trap of 31 FAM and the party of Malifeta, before the closing sets.

Popular calçotada and daytime programme

Before the concerts, from 13:00 to 15:00, the car park of the Cooperativa Agrícola de Valls hosts the popular calçotada: 1,500 portions with 12 PGI calçots, sauce, butifarra sausage, bread, potatoes, dessert and water, for €15 plus fees with a separate ticket. Calçofest Matí, in the Plaza del Pati, is free and includes the Colla Joves and the Colla Vella dels Xiquets de Valls, the Gegant del Calçot, the Mulassa, the Ball de Gitanes and a children's show by El Pony Menut; its 2026 schedule has not yet been published.

A free municipal bus links the bus station, the festival site and Sala RedStar; in 2025 it ran from 16:00 to 19:00 and from 0:00 to 5:00, roughly every 35 minutes, and the 2026 timetable is still to be confirmed. The festival also announced an official bus from Barcelona, departing at 14:30 from the Estació de França area, subject to a minimum number of passengers.
