Rio Babel Festival 2023

    Information

    Following the success obtained in its previous editions, the Río Babel Festival is back from 30 June to 2 July 2023 at the Caja Mágica to celebrate its fifth edition.  It is a heterogeneous Ibero-American music festival that will feature leading national and international artists, in which Morat, Juan Luis Guerra 4.40, Bomba Estéreo, Julieta Venegas, Guitarricadelafuente, Macaco or La M.O.D.A., and many others have already confirmed their participation.  

    Great names from Ibero-American and international music will come together in this latest edition. One of the premises that Río Babel follows is to continue building bridges with Latin America, which is evident through the presence of references, such as the Dominican singer-songwriter, Juan Luis Guerra who is currently focusing his musical career on his group, 4.40; the Colombian Latin pop band, Morat; the Mexican singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Julieta Venegas; or the Colombian musical group that combines electronic music, rock and reggae, Bomba Estéreo in the line-up.

    The festival also boasts a leading international line-up, such as the British funk and acid jazz group, Jamiroquai, and there will also be first-rate national names such as Guitarricadelafuente, Macaco, Alizzz, Sen Senra or La M.O.D.A., among many others.

    There is also room for rock in the programme, with proposals like that of the Argentinian group,  Conociendo Rusia, the new group with Leiva on the drums; The Guapos; Arde Bogotá, one of the bands that is currently all the rage; or the references in Colombian rock, Aterciopelados.

    There will also be combined rhythms and combinations of styles, such as the glam bolero of Daniel, me estás matando, the combined rock of Eskorzo, the musical proposal of the Californian group with Mexican origins, La Santa Cecilia, the reggaeton of Tremenda Jauría, or the combination of classic rock with electronic music by Peces Raros. The urban touch in the line-up is brought by 31 FAM and Mr. Kilombo, Colectivo Panamera and Balkan Paradise Orchestra who will fill the space with energy.

    Like in previous editions, Río Babel is still committed to bringing together several artistic and cultural disciplines in the same venue, going beyond music.  Comedy, performing arts and gastronomy round off the programme of this festival that has become a regular date in Madrid’s cultural agenda.

    The Río Babel Festival is an event that was created to connect national, Latin and international music through a wide variety of artists with new musical proposals, ranging from Latin jazz or folk to Indie or reggae.
