On Friday 28th and Saturday 29th June – BIGSOUND Festival returned to ‘La Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències’ here in Valencia. Without a doubt, it is one of the most beautiful venues for music events in Valencia and the perfect location for a family feelgood festival weekender. The event was sold out over days and 22,000 partygoers were treated to musical performances from top pop artists across two stages and partied on into the early hours.
Those that were not lucky enough to get tickets partied on the bridge that overlooks the venue and created their own mini-festival. The atmosphere both inside and outside of the La Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències was one of pure musical joy.
Fridays highlights included performances from Enol, Henry Mendez, Cali Y El Dandee, Aitana and Juan Magan on the Turia stage, with Love Yi, Pimp Flaco, Orslok,cvSen Senra and Steve Lean rocking the BIGSOUND stage. There was also surprise guest appearances from King Africa and Chema Rivas.
The La Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències is an incredible place to visit at any time of the year. Not only does it host some of Valencia’s best music and cultural events, but is also home to the Science Museum, Oceanografic, Hemisferic, Les Arts and the Agora Building – all set in beautiful grounds and a visual feast of incredible architecture.
