Bilbao BBK Live festival is back with confirmed dates, ticket offers and a world class headline act! The sixth edition of the Bilbao BBK Live festival will take place from the 7th-9th July and we are proud to announce that the first headline act will be Coldplay.
With this first line-up announcement, Bilbao BBK Live remains faithful to its commitment to base the festival on world class headline acts. Previous editions of the festival have included headliners such as Pearl Jam, Depeche Mode, Faith No More, Jane’s Addiction, RHCP and Primal Scream.
The festival is running a promotion on the first 1,000 three day tickets, which are currently on sale, for just £75 including camping. Hurry, they are selling fast!
Bilbao BBK Live is a three day festival that takes place in the outskirts of Bilbao. The festival site, located on top of a hill and surrounded by mountains, offers breathtaking views over the city of Bilbao.
This fuzz free festival, with an uncomplicated layout and easy access from the city and the airport, has proven to be a huge success with national and international festival goers. The two main stages and the schedule, guarantees that acts never overlap, so you get everything you have paid for!
While in the festival, take the opportunity to visit the city, just 10 minutes bus ride from the festival site. Bilbao is a modern city famous for its architecture, museums and gastronomy, and it’s just a stone’s throw away from the beach.
