The story

Festival de les Arts in Valencia

A spring music festival held on Valencia's Marina Real, the marina complex built for the city's America's Cup sailing events, since 2016. Its urban waterfront setting and indie, rock, electronic and pop lineup mark it as a design-conscious alternative to the beach-camping festivals common along the rest of the Valencian coast.

Festival de les Arts opened in Valencia in 2016 on the reclaimed marina grounds built for the city's America's Cup sailing events a decade earlier, giving the festival a striking waterfront setting of concrete piers and modern architecture unlike the parkland or rural sites hosting most Spanish festivals.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Its setting inside the Marina Real Juan Carlos I, built specifically for the 32nd America's Cup and including the distinctive sail-shaped Veles e Vents grandstand, is a specific architectural backdrop unmatched by other Spanish festivals, most of which use parkland, beaches or repurposed urban squares

02

The mystery stays covered

The compact single-site marina layout, letting attendees stay in the city rather than camp, is also a deliberate structural choice distinct from the sprawling camping-festival model common along the rest of the Valencian coast
