Polar Sound Occident 2026 has already kicked off (this weekend, March 13 and 14 in Baqueira Beret). Two days of fun in the snow and nights enjoying the best artists on the national scene await us. With passes and tickets sold out, let’s take a look at everything that awaits us at this year’s edition.
Lineup by day and performance times for Polar Sound Occident 2026
The Polar Sound Occident 2026 lineup is a mix of pop, rock, electrolatino, and urban music featuring some of the most prominent solo artists and bands on the national scene. Who will be performing on each day and in what order? Here’s the breakdown.
Meet the artists of Polar Sound Occident 2026
Several old friends of the festival will be performing at Polar Sound Occident 2026. For example, Taburete, who are taking the stage once again to bring the new show from their ‘El perro que fuma’ tour . If you witnessed what happened in 2024, you’ll undoubtedly be eager for a repeat.
Other “returning acts” include Siloé. The pop-rock band from Valladolid had such a great time at Polar Sound Occident 2025 that they’re returning for a live performance in 2026, playing tracks from their latest album, Santa Trinidad (including hits like “Todos los besos”) and great songs from their earlier days.
Lori Meyers
Joining them are true legends in their genres. On one hand, the more indie pop rock of Lori Meyers, the Granada-based experts in the art of crafting catchy choruses that are perfect for singing at the top of your lungs.
On the other hand, Juan Magán, the “king of Latin electro”—that fusion genre blending electronic music with urban beats—who will have us burning up the dance floor with tracks like “Bailando por ahí,” “Mal de amores,” and “He llorado (como un niño).” He will be in charge of closing out the 2026 edition with a stellar finale.
And let’s not forget a true diva: Leire Martínez has built a solid career as the lead singer of La Oreja de Van Gogh for 17 years, a phase that now gives way to her first steps as a solo artist.
Another powerful female presence is that of Paula Mattheus who, with her folk-inspired melodies and intimate lyrics, will tug at the heartstrings of the audience, proving that singer-songwriter music also has a place at a party-oriented festival.
Another singer-songwriter who will give it his all at Polar Sound Occident 2026 is Pavlenha, an artist who “didn’t want to be the typical guy with the little guitar,” as he stated in an interview with Nuevas Frecuencias, and who gradually—and almost without meaning to—became one of the new voices with a unique ability to connect with the audience at every live show.
They’re followed by some stage veterans like Sexy Zebras, an indie rock band with a 20-year career, during which they’ve released six studio albums and haven’t stopped touring the peninsula. Their latest album, Bravo, came out in April of last year.
Also Marlon, who have been on stage for over 10 years playing their rebellious, heartfelt pop rock. Their music draws clear influences from 80s pop (Los Ronaldos, Hombres G, Los Rodríguez…) and 60s British pop (The Beatles, The Rolling Stones…). From this blend, they’ve forged their own style, with catchy tracks like “Olvidé olvidarte” or their most recent single, “Confesarte.”
And the freshness comes from two young acts with great potential. On one hand, Hey Kid, a singer-songwriter (whose real name is Santi Vancells) ready to surprise us with his intimate and sincere live performance featuring songs like “Nuestra historia,” the latest single he released just a few weeks ago. On the other, Besmaya, a Madrid-based duo formed by Javi Ojanguren and Javi Echávarri, who play with that “relaxed pop” (as they call it) on their album, blending electronic and organic sounds.
And to top it all off, the party, the pomp, the madness—nothing beats a few great DJ sets well into the night. Friday’s closing party will be hosted by the iconic DJ Nano and the tireless Ardiya, while Saturday’s festivities will be led by Luigii Nieto and Caco Monteverde, essential fixtures at every Polar Sound Occident.
