Mare Llengua Festival in Alghero

Overview

The second edition of the Mare Llengua Festival was scheduled to take place in Alghero from October 8 to 11, focusing on singer-songwriter music performed in minority languages to celebrate cultural and linguistic connections.

Initial programming highlighted Lluís Llach as the guest of honor for an October 10 tribute intended to bridge the Nova Cançó tradition with contemporary music. The festival also planned to honor Italian composer Rachele Colombo for her work in Venetian folk music.
