BBK Bilbao Music Legends Fest
Date:6/14/2024 - 6/15/2024
Time:July 14th-15th
Where:Bilbao Arena
The well-established “Legends” festival will once again fill the city of Bilbao with music that year after year brings together a wide range of audiences and artists of international, national and local scopes, gathering music lovers of all ages in Miribilla. This festival comes from the natural evolution of the blues, rock, folk, soul, reggae and R&B cycle of "Music Legends", which has been held at the Sala BBK in Bilbao since 2011.
On the 14th, headliners, The Pretenders with more than four decades behind them and hits like "Back on the Chain Gang", "I'll Stand by You" and "Don't Get Me Wrong" hit the stage. The Pretenders first emerged as part of the new wave scene, evolving to new sounds right up to today. The Jayhawks, some of the best country rock in American popular music, The Screamin’ Cheetah Heetah Wheelies with their southern rock and the power trio Susana Santos, with Susana herself leading the best blues-rock band, will all be performing at the festival.
On the 15th, Deep Purple, creators of the great rock classics, and who have built up a legion of fans spanning several generations, will perform, as will legendary blues-rock/boogie band Canned Heat, Blues Pills, and Basque rock outfit PETTI.
With free admissions up to the age of 14 (included) and an atmosphere designed to cater for different generations, the festival has now become a cornerstone of the cultural and social enrichment of Bilbao, an integral part of the city’s vibrant cultural scene.
Environmentally conscious as ever organisers of BBK Bilbao Music Legends Fest, will implement the Erronka Garbia-Evento Sosteniblemethodology designed by Ihobe. The certificate awarded by this entity has been granted to the festival for its commitment to ensuring the reduction of the environmental footprint of "Legends", and for helping to raise the awareness of the people attending to take care of our environment with small gestures.
