Mercat Música Viva de Vic 2016

If you love music and want to explore the coolest local sounds, you should head to the central Catalan town of Vic for its annual autumnal festival. The 'Market of Live Music' celebrates its 28th edition this year, and if the line-up is anything like the 2015 edition, it'll be well worth the trip. Over 50 acts took to the stage including La Pegatina, an ensemble group renowned for its energetic ska and rumba performances, Núria Graham, one of the most promising young Catalan acts around, and Pxxr Gvng, Spanish trap pioneers riding high after their 2015 appearance at Barcelona's Sónar electronic music festival. The Market was set up for industry pros to seek out new stars from Catalonia and Spain, so why not follow their example for an unforgettable four days of live music.
