Vilar de Mouros Festival expands to five days with YUNGBLUD and Ben Harper

The Vilar de Mouros Festival has launched an expanded five-day edition, marking a significant change for the oldest music festival in the Iberian Peninsula. The event features a diverse lineup including British artist YUNGBLUD, who headlined the first day, and Ben Harper, who returns to celebrate his 25th anniversary at the festival.

Other scheduled performers include Body Count, Dropkick Murphys, Kasabian, The Hives, and Ugly Kid Joe. The festival's director, Paulo Ventura, noted that the extended duration was partly necessitated by YUNGBLUD's specific touring schedule. The programming also highlights rising British acts such as The Molotovs and Tom A. Smith.
