After a stellar debut last year, KALORAMA Madrid is back—and ready to kick off the summer with a bang. The festival will celebrate its second edition on 20 and 21 June 2025, bringing two days of live music to the Caja Mágica with a limited capacity.
Following the great reception of its first outing, KALORAMA returns to the peninsula to mark the summer solstice in style. The full line-up has now been revealed, featuring a genre-spanning mix of international icons and homegrown talent. Artists including L’Impératrice, BADBADNOTGOOD, Boy Harsher, Model/Actriz, Maria Arnal, Alizzz, and PUTOCHINOMARICÓN join the bill—promising a soundtrack that’s as diverse as it is exciting.
The pre-sale waiting list is now open on the festival website, with tickets going on sale soon.
A new home, same spirit
Now firmly establishing itself as a must on the European festival calendar, KALORAMA Madrid returns with a fresh setting and a packed weekend of open-air performances. The new edition moves to Caja Mágica—an iconic venue that promises an upgraded experience for festivalgoers. With its carefully curated line-up, limited capacity, and focus on comfort and quality, KALORAMA is set to become the perfect launchpad for the holiday season.
Headliners to remember
Pet Shop Boys lead this year’s line-up with their era-defining pop and spectacular live show. As part of their ongoing Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live tour, they’ll deliver a performance packed with decades of chart-topping hits, theatrical flair and electronic energy. London’s Metro called their live show “a life-affirming, soul-reviving joy”—and KALORAMA Madrid will be no exception.
She opens the show with the incomparable Jorja Smith, whose unique mix of R&B, soul, and electronica has touched fans globally. With stunning vocal ability and delivery emotionally charged, she’s one of the most recognizable voices of her time.
Azealia Banks, never afraid to be irresponsible and rule-breaker, introduces her own hip-hop/house crossover and whip-cracking rhymes onto the stage. Add to that the snarky, dark humor of Father John Misty, Scissor Sisters’ glam-rock revival, and one-off special 20th-anniversary performance by The Flaming Lips, performing Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots—and you have a bill that is filled with unavoidable high points.
Global sounds, local voices
Beyond the headliners, KALORAMA continues to champion artists shaping the sound of today. From the genre-defying jazz fusion of BADBADNOTGOOD, to the hypnotic synths of Boy Harsher, and the sleek retro-pop of L’Impératrice, the international bill is bursting with energy and edge.
Meanwhile, Spain’s own scene is well represented. Maria Arnal brings a fresh take on folk traditions in her new solo chapter, while Alizzz delivers his unmistakable pop-electronic sound. Expect provocative performance and sharp social critique from PUTOCHINOMARICÓN, alongside spoken word-electronica fusion from Laura Sam, and indie brilliance from La Plata, Irenegarry, and El Buen Hijo.
