Mad Cool Festival share huge updated line-up

Mad Cool Festival have shared the final additions to their 2023 line-up, ahead of the annual Madrid fiesta on 6th-8th July. Among the new names announced are Maximo Park and Belgian band dEUS, while organisers have also confirmed that M.I.A. will replace Janelle Monáe as one of Saturday’s headliners (who can no longer perform due to reasons beyond the festival’s control).

M.I.A. joins an already stacked list of co-headliners across the weekend, full of big names ranging from Lizzo and Sam Smith, to The Prodigy and The Black Keys. Elsewhere on the lineup, festival goers are still spoilt for choice, regardless of whether they fancy headbanging with Nova Twins and STONE, or dancing the night away with Honey Dijon and The Blessed Madonna.

The festival will be held at a new site in Madrid’s Villaverde District for the first time this year, in a move that organisers hope will make things more accessible for attendees travelling from further afield.

Weekend tickets are completely sold out, but you can still get one day tickets here.
