Mad Cool Festival announce 2025 day splits
The Madrid festival has now confirmed that metals titans Nine Inch Nails will also be joining this year’s bill.
Madrid’s Mad Cool Festival are starting the year with more big news! The fest has announced their next wave of acts for 2025, as well as confirming this year’s daily schedule.
And it’s an event that’s already shaping up to be a big one, with recent additions like enigmatic experimentalist Geordie Greep and Irish alt-folk outfit Kingfishr joining girl in red, Glass Animals, Bloc Party, Finneas, Kaiser Chiefs and loads more in the Spanish capital this Summer.
Topping the bill on the opening night will be indie stalwarts Kings Of Leon, while other big-hitters like Gracie Abrams, Weezer, and Iggy Pop are set to help kick things off in style. Friday night will see the newly announced ’90s icons Nine Inch Nails take to the festival’s main stage alongside Noah Kahan, Alanis Morrisette and Benson Boone, while pop monolith Olivia Rodrigo is closing the show on Saturday evening.
What’s more, Mad Cool have also revealed that Brunch! Electronik will be hosting a special day of electronic music on Sunday for the very first time, giving over the dancefloor to anyone who wants to keep the party going.
Mad Cool 2025 will take place in the heart of Madrid this summer, from 10th to 12th July, with Brunch! Electronik x Mad Cool happening on Sunday 13th July. Head over to the Mad Cool website to grab tickets, and check out the full line-up so far below.
