Festival Cruïlla 2026 has just announced the first names on the line-up for its 16th edition, which will take place between 8 and 11 July at its usual venue, the Parc del Fòrum in Barcelona.
The standout acts in this initial wave of confirmations are undoubtedly the American bands Pixies and David Byrne. We last saw the band led by Black Francis at Low Festival 2024 a couple of years ago, and they will be performing at Cruïlla 2026 to celebrate their 40-year career. Meanwhile, the former Talking Heads frontman will be returning to the festival after his incredible 2018 concert to present his latest album. Who Is The Sky? (2025).
In terms of international artists, the other confirmations include Two Door Cinema Club, Bomba Estéreo, Polo & Pan, Argentina’s Yami Safdie, Italy’s Mind Enterprises, Sampa The Great from Africa, and Mexico’s Son Rompe Pera with their fusion of cumbia and punk. Meanwhile, Mishima and Dan Peralbo i El Comboi are the two Catalan music scene representatives confirmed today.
Two- and four-day passes are now on sale on the festival’s official website. Prices are €120 (+ booking fee) for the weekend pass (including Friday 10th and Saturday 11th) and €145 (+ booking fee) for the full four-day pass.
