El Sol

    Information

    Since 1979, this venue has been thriving and standing the test of time. El Sol is a classic Madrid venue founded during Madrid’s “Movida” movement era and has hosted the best pop and rock artists from the national and international scene. Artists like Alaska y los Pegamoides, La Unión, Radio Futura have all performed here, the same as up-and-coming bands hoping to be discovered as the next big thing by the music industry.

    With gigs almost daily, at El Sol you can enjoy concerts from international tours, intimate sets by major Spanish bands, and new names on the indie music scene making a name for themselves. Although rooted in pop-rock, this venue also showcases urban, folk, and more avant-garde music proposals. At the weekends, the late-night programme at El Sol explores the latest trends in electronic music.

    As you step inside the venue, a circular staircase takes you down to the lower level. This spacious room has two bars, a DJ booth, stands, a gallery section… The open-plan layout is also ideal for hosting all kinds of events in the world of culture, such as book launches, record launches, awards ceremonies, or even film or music video shoots. And all just a stone's throw from Puerta del Sol.
