Festival in Europe: Saturday Night Fiber

Madrid, Spain

Info from organizers:
It is our great pleasure to introduce you to Saturday Night Fiber, a very special event that will take place in Madrid on July 19 at the Juan Carlos I Auditorium in the Campo de las Naciones, and which will feature a choice selection of artists from the FIB Heineken line-up.

Saturday Night Fiber is the name we have chosen for this urban celebration that is here to stay. The idea behind this venture is to geographically diversify the cultural offering and entertainment of its brother Festival, bringing part of the excellence of its programming and production values to a city like Madrid, not to mention the hedonistic and festive spirit that has made FIB Heineken a benchmark of fun worldwide and one of the main cultural attractions of continental Europe.

For several years now Maraworld has been searching for the ideal location to develop another event similar to what has been taking place year after year in Benicàssim since 1995, placing all its bets on Madrid as the best place to organise what will come to be the first step in that direction. The excellent and unbeatable facilities of the Juan Carlos I Auditorium, with a capacity for 12,000 people, fully live up to the high standards of quality set by the Maraworld production team, and that is why they have been chosen for the first edition of Saturday Night Fiber. A first and decided step, which in the future may become a multi-day festival with significantly more concerts as well as other cultural and entertainment activities designed to interact with the great offering of one of the most fun-loving and cosmopolitan cities of Europe.

Just months before its unveiling, Saturday Night Fiber represents an ideal opportunity to spend an unforgettable weekend in Madrid, enjoying history-making bands and artists like My Bloody Valentine and Siouxsie, generational emblems like Babyshambles and Mika, and up-and-coming bands like The Rumble Strips.
