The newly formed Andalucia Big Festival has announced an impressive, illustrious line-up for its very first event ever. The festival will take place on September 8th, 9th and 10th in Málaga, Sacaba Beach. Tickets can be purchased here.
The staggering line-up for Big Festival’s inaugural event includes Rage Against The Machine, Muse, Jamiroquai (exclusive show in Europe), Glass Animals, Years & Years, Vetusta Morla, Biffy Clyro, Nova Twins, Sylvie Kreusch, Morgan, Los Planetas, Lucy Dacus, Michael Kiwanuka, Paolo Nutini and Aurora.
Rage Against The Machine, one of the most exciting additions to this already sensational line-up, recently reunited for the second time, announcing dates for a worldwide “Public Service Announcement” tour in February of 2020. The tour was, as expected, rescheduled for 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, however it was rescheduled once more in April of 2021, and is now set to take place in the spring and summer of this year. The band will be accompanied by hip-hop duo Run The Jewels.
Rage Against The Machine’s appearance at Big Festival will mark their first appearance in Spain in twenty-five years, and will be one of two Spanish dates on their world tour, the second being a headlining slot at Mad Cool Sunset in Madrid. The band will, of course, tour North America extensively, with plenty of dates in both Canada and the US. For any UK fans, the band will be making three stops; one at Edinburgh’s Royal Highlands Centre, and Reading and Leeds festivals. More tour and ticket information can be found on the band’s website.
Andalucía Big Festival is part of the Andalucía BIG project, which aims to be the largest cultural event in Andalusia and includes two other major events, Andalucía Live, a series of free concerts that will take place in the different provinces of Andalusia in the weeks prior to the festival and Andalucía Music Forum, the meeting for music industry professionals. These three new events make up a new way of internationalizing the Andalusia brand through quality tourism, which will provide the added enjoyment of music and all the activities linked to the enjoyment of the southern area, the climate, the gastronomic and tourist offer of the area. This project has the collaboration of the Tourism Council of the Andalucía Board.
