Performances were held in the unique settings of Puebla de Don Fadrique and Almaciles. Musical acts included Luis Fercán, Pedro Pastor, DJ Doctor Fli, Repion, Colectivo Panamera, La Regader, and Las Hienas. The festival also featured multidisciplinary programming, such as the clown show 'Lilibú' by Salva Riquelme and art therapy workshops.
