About Mad Cool Festival 2026

Mad Cool Festival 2026 runs 2026-07-08 through 2026-07-11 at Iberdrola Music in Madrid (Villaverde district) (55,000 capacity). Headliners include Foo Fighters, Florence + The Machine, Lorde, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Pulp and 3 more.

City festival — stay in central Madrid (Sol, Gran Vía, Lavapiés, Malasaña). Spain in July is HOT (often 35°C+) — plan for hydration. Foo Fighters' Spain-only show is the big draw.
