Fira Trovam 2026: which concerts are free, which are paid and how much the PRO accreditation costs

Do you have to pay to see Fira Trovam? In most cases, no. The Fira Valenciana de la Música holds its 14th edition from 12 to 14 November in Castelló de la Plana with almost fifty names on the line-up, and this week the organisers themselves released a video answering that question, as well as questions about professional accreditation and what activities are on offer. Here is the answer, with the official schedule in hand.

Fira Trovam 2026 concerts without a ticket, day by day

Trovam is a fair designed for programmers and promoters to discover acts, which is why most of the line-up performs in showcase format: short concerts that appear on the official schedule without a ticket link. According to the organisers, most of the fair's concerts are free. They take place mainly on the Escenario VibraMahou and in the Sala de cambra at the Auditori.

• Thursday 12: Maria Faubel (12:00), Tomàs de los Santos (13:30), Anaut (14:30), Rüdiger (17:45), Feliu Ventura (18:30), HOFE (19:15), Saurí (20:00), OKDW (20:45), Dulzaro (21:30) and Les Testarudes (22:15).
• Friday 13: Sara Dowling (12:00), Paula Peso (13:30), Paco Pecado (14:30), Stereozone (18:30), Negre (19:30), Nadia Sheikh (20:30), Marte Lasarte (21:30), Amor Líquido (21:45), Kiliki (23:00), AnimalPersona (23:30) and Bernal (00:15). Arre-A.K. closes at El Terra at 01:00 in the early hours of Saturday.
• Saturday 14: Ramonets (13:00), Nacho Casado (18:00), Palo Domado (18:30), Abraxas + Hugo Mas (19:15), La Xica (19:45), VVV [Trippin'you] (20:30), Romàntic Dimoni (21:00), Brilla Carmen (21:45), MOMO (22:45) and Quinto (23:55). At the Teatre Principal, Noelia Llorens 'Titana' performs at 20:00 and Anna Ferrer at 21:00, and La 126 closes at El Terra at 01:00 in the early hours of Sunday.

Two names have been added to the schedule since the line-up was first announced. Stereozone, a metal and stoner band from Algemesí, is starting again after a flood that, according to its presentation at the fair, left it with nothing; in Castelló it premieres the album it previewed with “La comunidad”. And Marte Lasarte, the Basque group made up of former members of Skakeitan with Lore Nekane Billelabeitia of Belako, presents its second album.

The Ramonets show on Friday at 10:00 is for schools and requires prior registration; the one on Saturday at 13:00 is the family show.

The ten ticketed concerts and what they cost

The fair's tickets page lists the paid events, each with its own sales. There is no combined pass.

• Wednesday 11, 20:00, Teatre Principal: Sanspok performs a live soundtrack to Alice in Wonderland, the day before the fair.
• Thursday 12, 20:00: Pep Gimeno 'Botifarra' premieres a new show in the Sala Simfònica, and Desert Vipers and La Perra Blanco share the bill at La Bohemia for €12 plus €1.50 in fees.
• Friday 13: Sandra Monfort presents Terra de Guapes at 20:00 at the Teatre Principal; Cancamusa and Brighton 64 play at 20:45 at La Bohemia for €10 plus €1.50; CERVATANA, at 21:15 in the Sala de cambra, costs €12 plus €1.20, and Repion plays at 22:30 in the Sala Simfònica.
• Saturday 14: Perfecto Miserable and Depresión Sonora open at 20:30 in the Sala Simfònica; Rebrote, the project led by Iñaki “Uoho” Antón with former members of Platero y Tú and Extremoduro, comes on at 21:00 at La Bohemia for €22.50 plus €2.25, and Toundra closes at 23:30 in the Sala de cambra for €12 plus €1.50.

Concerts in the Sala Simfònica are sold with a seating plan. At the club venues, general admission has no allocated seating. Under-14s must be accompanied and, from that age, must bring a signed authorisation.

The split makes the fair's logic clear: the acts from across Spain with the most pull, such as Toundra, Repion, Rebrote or Brighton 64, who are on their farewell run, are paid; most of the projects looking for bookings are not. For those who do not live in Castelló, a full Friday or Saturday lets you combine several afternoon showcases with a paid concert in the evening.

PRO accreditation: €70 for the professional programme

The panel discussions, the Trovam Conversations and the booking meetings are not open to the general public: they require professional accreditation. It opened in June with a limited-time launch rate of €40, and the platform now sells it at its standard price of €70.

The professional programme takes place on Thursday 12 and Friday 13 at the Auditori. It includes a debate on the role of music fairs with representatives of the Institut Valencià de Cultura, the Fira Mediterrània de Manresa, Catalonia's ICEC and Radar Madrid, which is holding its own showcases this week; another panel on songwriting and song exploitation with the SGAE; and talks with Varry Brava and La Bien Querida. This year, instead of speed meetings, the fair is organising slow meetings, longer meetings between artists, managers and programmers. New this year, a session hosted by journalist Isa Monzó brings together Dulzaro, HOFE, La Perra Blanco, Les Testarudes and Romàntic Dimoni with their managers.

Venues and long days: from midday into the early hours

• Auditori de Castelló (Avenida de la Mare de Déu del Lledó, 50): Sala Simfònica, Sala de cambra, Escenario VibraMahou and professional area.
• Teatre Principal (Plaza de la Pau).
