This year, the third run of the Rustic Festival Lanjarón features the popular Dub Valle HiFi Sound System, bringing their bass music to the Chiringuito del Parque on the Saturday. Don’t miss it!
THE ECLECTIC Rustic Festival Lanjarón returns to the Alpujarran spa town from Friday 24 to Sunday 26 April, 2026, bringing a three-day programme of live music, DJs, walking trails, workshops, and cultural activity, to the Parque del Salado. The event is organised by local musician and promotor, Raul Soto Reyes.
The Rustic Festival Lanjarón features the most ‘fuerte’ day on Saturday, which is ticketed at 10e beforehand and 15 on the door.
The festival opens on Friday 24 April, with free entry and an afternoon-to-evening programme. Saturday 25 April is the main day – and who wants to miss Dub Valle? DJ Pablo Tito is also an attraction, playing the opening slot He has some banging drum and bass tunes.
Sunday 26 April returns to the free-entry format, closing the weekend with chilled activities.
This year’s line-up features a broad selection of Andalusian artists, representing different styles. Amongst the main names are: Muerdo, El Jose and Antonio Lizana. They are joined by artists including Makaú, La Plazuela, Muerd o DJs, DJ Coco, and Mëstiza-style electronic selectors, alongside a wider group of emerging performers from Granada and nearby. The programme combines live bands, singer-songwriters, and DJ sessions.
Third edition – refining the formula of Rustic Festival Lanjarón
Raul Soto Reyes says: “This year, the festival takes another step forward, reaffirming its commitment to local talent: the lineup will consist entirely of emerging Andalusian artists, with a special focus on the province of Granada, showcasing the art that is born and thrives in our region.
“Rustic Festival Lanjarón 2026 is committed to a more accessible and conscious experience, reducing ticket prices and offering free admission to two of the three days, so that no one misses out on this collective celebration.”
Dub Valle HiFi joins the lineup of Rustic Festival Lanjarón
Another appearance on the roster this year is the excellent Dub Valle Hi-Fi – a popular sound system from the Granada area, run by reggae and dub aficionados, Phil Vega and Daniel Dobson. Their sessions bring bass-heavy dub and reggae selections to a loyal crowd, and their system – developed over years -has hog scoops and one of the clearest sounds in the area. It excelled sound-wise at he Planeta Bass festival, last September, when it had just been fine-tuned! Get yer head in that bass bin!
Daniel Dobson says: “We are playing from 4.30pm until 7pm on the Saturday and then, after the ‘pasa calles’, until 11pm. It should be interesting to join this event.”
