Son & Mar Festival in Vigo

Overview

The Son & Mar Festival in Vigo commenced with opening nights at the Muelle de Trasatlánticos. Early programming featured electronic and pop dance acts, including a performance by the Danish duo Safri Duo and a night dedicated to 1990s nostalgia with artists such as Tam Tam Go and Amistades Peligrosas.

Following the initial performances, the festival scheduled a special event titled ‘A Movida Viguesa’ to honor the local musical and cultural movement that defined Vigo in the 1980s and 1990s. This segment of the festival includes artists linked to the original scene, such as Golpes Bajos and Killer Barbies. While presented as a public cultural offering, the event has drawn attention to the involvement of regional and provincial government branding and the use of public funds for the celebrations.
