Aúpa Lumbreiras!!

Holy hell, it’s happening. The beast is back. After years of silence, Aúpa Lumbreiras!! — Spain’s most legendary, beer-soaked, pogo-fuelled punk rock festival — is clawing its way out of the grave and returning to Villena like a blast from a squatted amp. This isn’t just another comeback. This is The Return — three days of unfiltered chaos, sweat, rebellion, and music that punches you straight in the face with a grin.

From August 13 to 15, the Polideportivo de Villena will transform into a punk paradise: four stages, over fifty bands, camping under the trees, a shimmering pool to cool off the rage, and enough decibels to register on the Richter scale.

The first lineup drop already reads like a battle cry: Soziedad Alkoholika, El Drogas, Narco, The Toy Dolls, Boikot, Los Segis, Talco, Los De Marras, Reincidentes, Def Con Dos, Sons of Aguirre & Scila, Porretas, El Último Ke Zierre, Sínkope, Envidia Kotxina, Kaos Etiliko, Gritando En Silencio, and the gloriously unhinged Me Fritos And The Gimme Cheetos — with plenty more to come.

And the setting? Pure Spanish summer madness — Villena in August, guitars screaming against the dry heat, punks diving into the pool between circle pits, and beer cans crunching under Doc Martens as the sun goes down. It’s the kind of festival where you lose your voice by noon, your inhibitions by midnight, and your mind somewhere in between

.

Run To The Hills, S.L. and the Villena city council are pulling out all the stops with over a million euros of investmentand the full technical muscle of Leyendas del Rock behind it. Translation: it’s going to sound massive, look stunning, and feel like home for every misfit who’s been waiting for the Lumbreiras flame to burn again.

The first 5,000 tickets drop Thursday, October 30 at noon for a ridiculous €49 + fees. They won’t last long — because everyone who ever screamed “¡Aúpa!” into the night knows this is more than a festival. It’s a resurrection.

So dust off your boots, tune up your attitude, and circle that date in red. Aúpa Lumbreiras!!

The Return isn’t just back — it’s coming for your summer. Watch this space for all the updates!
