Sidecars

Summer in Valencia doesn’t truly begin when the temperature rises — it begins when the lights come on in the trees at Jardines de Viveros. And in 2026, the moment arrives once again with the return of the beloved open-air concert series Nits de Vivers. For several magical nights, one of the city’s most beautiful green spaces transforms into a meeting point for music lovers, food enthusiasts and anyone who understands that some concerts are meant to be savoured slowly — under the sky, with friends, surrounded by the quiet rustle of summer trees. This isn’t your typical concert series. Nits de Vivers has built its reputation on atmosphere as much as music. The concept is simple but irresistible: live music, great gastronomy and a relaxed open-air setting, all woven together in a way that feels less like a gig and more like a summer ritual.

And this year, the opening night promises to set the tone perfectly.

Kicking off the 2026 edition on May 28, Spanish rock favourites Sidecars take to the stage to present their new album Everest. With nearly two decades of career behind them, Sidecars have grown into one of Spain’s most dependable and beloved rock bands. Their songs — melodic, heartfelt and built for singing along — have filled arenas across the country while maintaining the emotional honesty that made fans fall for them in the first place.

Live, the band have a reputation for turning concerts into shared emotional journeys: big choruses, heartfelt lyrics and that rare sense of connection between artist and audience.

Despite its towering name, Everest isn’t about conquering peaks. It’s about the climb — the songs that soundtrack life’s highs and lows, the moments that linger long after the final chord fades. Those themes feel particularly fitting for an outdoor show at Jardines de Viveros, where music drifts into the night air and every lyric seems to travel a little further. Hearing those songs beneath the Valencian sky, surrounded by trees and summer energy, is exactly the kind of experience Nits de Vivers was created for.

For many in Valencia, Nits de Vivers marks the unofficial beginning of the season — the moment when evenings stretch longer, the city slows down and live music takes centre stage. With more artists still to be announced and the promise of unforgettable nights ahead, the 2026 edition is already shaping up to be another highlight of the city’s cultural calendar. But it all begins with one night - May 28 - Sidecars - Music under the trees.
