Cap Roig Festival

Sting, Ben Harper, Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett, Blaumut, Passenger, Rosario, Julieta Venegas + more.

'The Glastonbury of Catalonia' may sound like an improbable epithet, but it conveys something of the stature of Cap Roig. For a month and a half, the world's pop-rock stars take turns on the stage in Calella de Palafrugell for their big Catalan summer date. Tickets are sold by the gig and the festival generates such anticipation that the big names usually sell out well in advance, so get booking quick if you want to catch the likes of Sting, Ben Harper or Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett duetting. There are also lots of big names on the local and national scene.
