MUAC Fest

MUAC Fest will return in 2027, but there are still no dates, no venue and no line-up. The Granada pop and urban music festival closed its third edition on 26 September at the Cortijo del Conde, and its website already signs off that edition with a “see you next year”. What remains unknown is almost everything anyone wanting to plan ahead needs: when, where and who.

What we know about MUAC Fest 2027

The official website already presents the new 2027 edition and offers a newsletter to let people know “as soon as there are dates and a line-up”. There have been no further announcements: no dates, no venue, no artists and no tickets on sale as of 14 October 2026.

Nor is it easy to work them out from the festival's track record. The first edition was held in April 2024 in Albolote; the next two moved to the last weekend of September, in Armilla in 2025 and in the city of Granada itself in 2026. September seems to be the established slot, but the festival has not confirmed it for 2027, and each edition has debuted a new venue. Any date or venue circulating before an announcement from the organisers is guesswork.

A two-day festival that has changed venue every year

The format, however, has stayed the same. MUAC concentrates its programme into two consecutive days, Friday and Saturday, with two concert stages and MUACTRONIC, the electronic music area (deep house and techno) that keeps the night going, joined in 2026 by an after-party, AFTERMUAC. That year each day ran from 16:00 to 05:00, thirteen hours with the site open.

In 2026 the festival made the leap to the city. From the Campo Municipal de Fútbol in Armilla, the 2025 venue, the festival moved to the Cortijo del Conde, in the Mercagranada area, within the Parque Empresarial Norte de Granada: a venue with capacity for up to 25,000 people that had previously hosted Granada Sound. According to Planomato, the 2025 edition in Armilla drew more than 26,000 people.

Beyond the music, the site is rounded off with food trucks, bars, a VIP area and brand and beauty spaces, under an identity that makes the kiss the festival's emblem.

Line-up profile: Spanish pop and urban music

MUAC is not part of the alternative circuit. Its line-up mixes well-known names from pop and urban music in Spain with local acts and a late-night electronic slot. The first edition featured Ana Mena and Omar Montes; the 2025 edition announced Pepe y Vizio, Álvaro de Luna, Nil Moliner, Pignoise and Bombai; and the 2026 edition was headlined by Rels B, Saiko and Ana Mena.

That evolution shows the direction in which the festival has grown: from a party-pop line-up to one with Spanish urban music headliners, without losing the sing-along pop. No names have been confirmed for 2027.

Reference prices: what it cost in 2026

There are no tickets on sale for 2027. As a guide, the official 2026 sale offered day tickets from 49.90 euros and a two-day pass for 84 euros, with booking fees on top. The festival also had a family rate: free entry for ages 0 to 8 (paying only the fees) and a 50% discount for ages 9 to 14. These are 2026 prices and the next edition may change them.

How MUAC Fest 2026 went

The third edition took place on Friday 25 and Saturday 26 September 2026 at the Cortijo del Conde. Each day had its own profile. Friday was the more urban of the two, with Saiko, Lucho RK, Khea, Don Patricio, Javi Medina, the electronic flamenco of Granada's own La Plazuela, and Aaron Sevilla with P. Rivas, Tami Tamako, Aleesha and Curro. Saturday turned towards pop with Rels B and Ana Mena as the main draws, alongside Despistaos, Depol, Bombai and Marina Reche, plus Coti, Sofía Cristo, Daniela Garsal and Polo Nández.

The site used a cashless wristband and the festival offered a shuttle bus from the centre of Granada with a separate ticket, as well as a 15% discount on Renfe for those travelling with a festival ticket. We cover the day-by-day line-up, access and transport in our guide to MUAC Fest 2026 at the Cortijo del Conde, which remains the reference for that edition.
