Spring Festival Returns to Alicante with a Stellar Lineup

The 2024 Spring Festival marks its second consecutive year with official approval to expand the poster and bring international flavor to the event. The Swedish rock act Mando Diao, led by Björn Dixgård, was announced by the organizers this Tuesday. Having previously impressed at the Low Festival, the band now joins the lineup for the festival set to take place in Germany and Alicante, with Rabasa Multispace hosting events in Alicante on May 31 and June 1.

Alongside Mando Diao, the Spring Festival roster already includes notable acts such as Long Live Sweden, Arde Bogotá, Dani Fernández, Dorian, Iván Ferreiro, Varry Brava, Belén Aguilera, Cariño, Ladilla Rusa, Samurai, Sexy Zebras, and Siloé. The organizers continue to refine the final approvals to complete the lineup. Note: festival producers confirm ongoing negotiations and contractual details as of today .

Mando Diao released their first LP Bring Them In, a record that helped them achieve gold status not only in Sweden but also in Germany and Japan. This achievement marked the first major milestone in a long career rooted in indie and garage rock, and it ignited their presence on Europe’s premier festival stages. The Swedish band issued their latest album I Solnedgången in 2020 and, for the Alicante edition, they will perform live on unfamiliar shores for the first time. The 2024 event aims to ignite the Spring Festival scene like never before, inviting audiences to experience a coastal cultural convergence that blends music with the city’s vibrant arts milieu .
