Editors recall the festival’s 2018 edition when a British band returned to Benidorm, ready to deliver a show that would echo through the set with a selection of familiar tracks. The night expanded into an Ocean of the Night experience, a sprawling sonic landscape that kept the crowd hooked from the first chord to the last encore.

Barcelona’s own Dorian, among the city’s most influential acts, stands out for blending new wave and electronic music in a signature style that transforms live performances into vibrant, moving dance floors. Their presence adds a nocturnal pulse to the lineup, inviting fans to move with the music as the visuals and rhythm fuse into a singular moment on stage.

Lewis OfMan is another name fans won’t want to miss. The French producer brings a debut album’s worth of sonic poetry to Benidorm, complemented by a danceable EP that leans into electronic textures, funk undertones, bedroom pop vibes, and lo-fi aesthetics. The crossover energy of his music promises a set that sits between introspective melodies and contagious party energy, preserving a balance that keeps festival-goers entertained from start to finish.

White Man will explore provocative themes in his set, including the idea of what is in the glass and the fantasies that accompany it. Pablo Cobos’ project blends ’90s house and techno with contemporary urban sounds, creating a hybrid that nods to the past while pushing toward a modern, nightclub-ready atmosphere. The result is a live experience that feels both nostalgic and forward-looking, inviting audiences to reevaluate how classic club textures can breathe in a new context.

The latest iteration of Dora, known for its influence, presents itself as the voice of a generation where genres blend and morph fluidly. On stage, listeners can expect tracks such as Snake Eyes, Hoy, and Oxenaamong others, delivered with the band’s characteristic energy and a sense of communal immersion that makes the audience feel part of the music’s evolution.

BiFanna teams up with the Portuguese psychedelic rock band, Liquid Dances, to deliver an album that traverses Capri and Salty. The live dynamic fuses lysergic tropics, garage, and psychedelia with the boldest sounds of the sixties, creating a multi-layered experience that rewards attentive listening and free-spirited dancing alike.

Close This Tour is reigniting the crowd with a band that had taken a seven-year pause before returning to the stage. The Memphis ensemble brings a refreshed vitality with A Little More Time, presenting their Sovereign Voice as part of a second album with Merge Records. The set becomes a retrospective journey while keeping a contemporary edge, offering both nostalgia and new textures in equal measure.

Three-day passes remain available at lowfestival.es and datos.com, with tickets priced at 70 euros until 23:59 on Sunday. The accessibility of the pass tiers makes it possible for a broader audience to experience the festival’s diverse lineup and the evolving soundscape that defines the event this year.
