There is no day-by-day breakdown or timetable yet. With five days and several stages, that breakdown is what will decide which day is best for those not buying the pass.

Dates and venues in Torremolinos
The festival lasts five days, from Wednesday 3 to Sunday 7 February 2027. The poster lists five spaces:
- Auditorio Municipal Príncipe de Asturias and Fortuna Dancing Hall, at the Torremolinos fairground (calle Pedro Navarro Bruna). These are the stages for the evening concerts.
- Hotel La Barracuda, on avenida de España, and Hotel Pez Espada.
- Plaza del Remo (La Carihuela), next to La Barracuda.
For reference, at the 2026 edition the days started at around 12:00 at the pool and rooftop of La Barracuda, and the auditorium and Fortuna concerts opened their doors at 19:30 and went on until four or five in the morning. The 2027 timetable has not been published.
