Halloween festivals 2026 in Spain: Halloween Takeover, Blackworks, Charlotte de Witte at Fabrik and punk at PintorRock

Halloween falls on a Saturday this year, and the festivals celebrating it divide up almost neatly by style. Electronic music is concentrated in the south of the Madrid metropolitan area, with three big events on the same night; outside the capital, Valladolid and Valencia have their own sessions, Reus devotes three days to punk from Thursday 29 and Alcalá de Guadaíra offers the cheapest ticket.

These are the Halloween 2026 festivals in Spain that have already published their line-up, venue and ticket sales, with the prices shown on their official sales pages this Tuesday, 20 October.

Madrid: house in Villaverde, Charlotte de Witte at Fabrik and hard techno in Leganés

Halloween Takeover is the one that starts earliest. elrow, Brunch Electronik and Industry City share three stages at the Recinto Iberdrola Music, in Villaverde, on Saturday 31 from 14:00 to 02:00. Headlining are The Martinez Brothers, Maceo Plex and Kölsch, on a line-up of more than 40 names ranging from house and tech house to the fast techno of DJ Gigola and Fatima Hajji, and the organisers expect more than 30,000 people. The early entry ticket costs €45, but is only valid for entry before 17:00 (after that you have to pay €20 more at the box office); general admission costs €58 and VIP Gold €154. Tickets are sold exclusively through Enterticket and all tickets are for over-18s only. Stages and entrances are covered in our Halloween Takeover guide.

At Fabrik, in Humanes de Madrid, Hallowfest brings the club's five brands together in a single night for the first time, from 17:00 to 06:00, with a morning session on Sunday 1. The main room is headlined by Charlotte de Witte, joined by Nastia and Future.666; the Nexus room is for the hardstyle of Brennan Heart, Sickmode and D-Block & S-te-fan, and other areas are reserved for schranz, house and the remember sound of La Resistencia de Raúl Ortiz. The organisers are also adding a horror walk-through with more than 100 actors. General admission is on its ninth price tier, at €55, with a last-tickets warning; the Early Ticket, at €40, only allows entry from 17:00 to 19:00. Tickets are on sale at Hallowfest 2026 on Fever. ModoFestival may receive a commission if you buy through this link, at no extra cost to you.

The Purgatory, the Blackworks Halloween event, is the only one of the three that runs over two nights: Friday 30 and Saturday 31, from 18:00 to 06:00, at La Nueva Cubierta de Leganés. It is hard techno, with a different line-up each night: Friday centres on the live set by 6EJOU with SNTS, and Saturday adds Angerfist, one of the leading figures in hardcore, alongside Dexphase, the promoter's founder. It is also the one leaving the least room for manoeuvre. The pass, at €70, and the general day tickets, at €40, all carry the warning "very few left", including Friday's, which did not have it two days ago. Tickets are in the holder's name and for over-18s only. The line-up by day and entry rules are in our guide to The Purgatory.

Choosing between the three is, above all, a choice of sound and schedule: Halloween Takeover suits an afternoon-and-evening plan, as it opens at 14:00 and closes at 02:00; Hallowfest changes style from room to room until 06:00, and Blackworks offers twelve straight hours of a single sound, the hardest of the three.

Outside Madrid: Oro Viejo in Valladolid and Charlotte de Witte in Valencia, already sold out

Oro Viejo, the brand under which DJ Nano revisits three decades of electronic music, holds a special edition at Arroyo Esfera, in Arroyo de la Encomienda, next to Valladolid, on Saturday 31 from 17:00 to 00:30. Nano shares the bill with Cristian Varela, Frank Trax, Óscar de Rivera, Ramiro López and Sergei Rez. It has the most manageable hours of the night: it finishes before 01:00. The first three ticket tiers are sold out and the cheapest available ticket costs €25 plus €2.50 in fees; it does not allow re-entry. Tickets are sold on the official Oro Viejo Halloween website, and the line-up is in our article on Oro Viejo in Valladolid.

In Valencia, Charlotte de Witte has her own Halloween night at Marina Sur on the same Saturday 31, but it is no longer an easy option for anyone without a ticket: general admission has been listed as sold out since mid-September and the event website has opened a waiting list. On 20 October only seven general tickets at €70 and 14 backstage tickets at €200 remained; VIP Platinum is sold out. The Belgian DJ also appears on the Hallowfest line-up that same night, and neither organiser has published what time she plays. Full details of ticket availability are in our article on Charlotte de Witte in Valencia.

No electronic music: three days of punk in Reus and Andalusian pop for €10

PintorRock is the longest festival over these dates and the first to get going: it runs from Thursday 29 to Saturday 31 at the Parc de la Festa in Reus, with 30 punk, street rock, ska and hardcore bands for its 15th anniversary. The stage times have already been published and the concerts do not overlap. The Toy Dolls play on Thursday at 23:10; Friday features Boikot (20:05), El Drogas (21:50) and Narco (23:35) back to back, and on Saturday Soziedad Alkoholika take the stage at 20:00, before Segismundo Toxicómano and The Baboon Show. All three days close at 03:30.

The three-day pass costs €76, and day tickets cost €35 on Thursday, €45 on Friday and €50 on Saturday. Children under 10 get in free with authorisation, and camping, which is paid separately, costs €15 per person for all three nights. The only official ticket seller is Enterticket. The full line-up by day is in our article on the PintorRock stage times, and the site facilities are on the PintorRock festival page.

In Alcalá de Guadaíra (Sevilla), PanarraFest has the cheapest ticket of the night: €10. The municipal festival, postponed at the time because of the weather forecast, takes place on Saturday 31 on the esplanade of the Auditorio Riberas del Guadaíra, at the foot of the castle, headlined by Nebulossa and Ladilla Rusa, with Carmen Xía, Karmento, Tú Peleas Como Una Vaca and local DJs Luis Jiménez and Josan Fame. The municipal ticketing portal sets doors at 18:30 and the start at 19:30, and warns that the audience will be standing. The date coincides with Halloween, but the line-up is the same one announced before the postponement, as we reported in our article on PanarraFest.

Getting home: from the Fabrik bus to camping in Reus

Hallowfest is the only one selling its own transport. Buses leave from the Templo de Debod from when the event opens until around 01:00, and return to the Príncipe Pío roundabout from 04:30. Each journey costs €6, and a return €10; they can be bought online until 12:00 on the day of the event, and after that only on the bus itself, at a higher price and in cash.

Halloween Takeover finishes at 02:00, when the Metro has already closed, and so far neither the organisers nor the venue have announced shuttle buses. The nearest stations are San Cristóbal and Villaverde Alto, on line 3, and San Cristóbal Industrial, on Cercanías; for the journey home, the options are taxis, ride-hailing cars and night buses. In Leganés, The Purgatory ends at 06:00, when the Metro reopens, and its page does not announce shuttle buses either. Oro Viejo closes at 00:30 in Arroyo de la Encomienda, with no transport information published.

In Reus, PintorRock has cancelled the buses it had announced from Barcelona, Lleida and Girona, so you will need to make your own way there. On the other hand, the campsite has 2,500 places a minute from the venue and the area for vans and motorhomes is free.

The rest of this month's festivals are in the October festival calendar, and what comes after the bank holiday weekend is in the November one.
