In short
- Sonido Almansa goes from two to three days in its second edition: it will take place on 4, 5 and 6 June 2027, once again at the Recinto Ferial de Almansa.
- The discounted pass costs €45, €46.75 with fees, only until 30 October; as of 17 October, 236 were left on the official ticket sale.
- It is a blind pass: no artists have been announced, but the festival is sticking with rock and roll, blues, soul and garage.
- The first edition featured La Perra Blanco and Nitrogods on the line-up, along with a last-minute change: Lagartija Nick pulled out and was replaced by Corazones Eléctricos.
Sonido Almansa is growing in its second edition. The Albacete rock and roll, blues and soul festival will take place on 4, 5 and 6 June 2027 at the Recinto Ferial de Almansa, one day more than at its debut, and is already selling a discounted pass for €45 that will only be available until 30 October.
The dates and the pass appear on the official website and on the poster the festival used to launch the offer on its social media in mid-September. There are no names yet for the 2027 line-up.
Sonido Almansa 2027: three days in June
The second edition will run from Friday 4 to Sunday 6 June 2027, returning to the same venue as its debut, the Recinto Ferial de Almansa. The first edition, in 2026, took up only the Friday and Saturday, so the festival is adding a full day in its second year.
The schedule for each day and the distribution of the concerts have not yet been published. The Sonido Almansa festival page will be updated with the announcements.
Discounted pass for 2027: €45 until 30 October
The festival is currently selling the ‘first-phase discounted pass’ on TicketTailor, the ticketing platform linked from its website. It costs €45 plus €1.75 in booking fees, €46.75 in total, and the offer poster sets its deadline at 30 October 2026. On Saturday 17 October there were 236 available, with a maximum of 20 per purchase. For now, the sales page shows only 4 and 5 June, while the official website and poster announce all three days.
The official ticket sale presents it as the festival pass, but its listing does not set out day-by-day access in writing; it is worth checking with the organisers before buying if you are only interested in one day. Prices for the next phase have not been announced either. For reference, in 2026 the launch pass also cost €45 for two days and the second phase rose to €58 plus fees, according to La Tinta de Almansa: the starting price stays the same with one more day of festival.
Sonido Almansa 2027 line-up: what we know
No artists have been confirmed. The ticket sale itself calls it a ‘blind pass’, and the festival has only revealed the ground it will cover: rock and roll, blues, soul and garage, as well as country, hard rock, roots and punk rock, with alternative activities. It describes itself as an ‘independent, international, inclusive and sustainable’ festival.
This is in line with the idea championed by its director, Enrique Hernández, at the debut: a festival ‘built on musical quality’ that does not aspire, in his words, to mass-market line-ups.
How the first edition went
Sonido Almansa debuted on 5 and 6 June 2026 with bands from Spain, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands and the United States. On Friday the stage hosted Sara Gee & Ramblin' Matt, Yo Diablo, Barcelona Big Blues Band with Elvez, Alejandra Rueda, The Phantom Four and ELVANA; on Saturday, HRNDZ, King Sapo, Ian Kay, Deaf Devils, Danny & The Champions of the World, Nitrogods and La Perra Blanco.
There was one major change: Lagartija Nick, one of Friday's main draws, pulled out due to health reasons affecting its singer, Antonio Arias, and the festival brought in the Valencian band Corazones Eléctricos. The organisers have not published attendance figures for that first edition.
