The Mad Cool 2026 festival takes place on 8–11 July 2026 at Iberdrola Music, Villaverde, Madrid — and the Mad Cool 2026 tickets are sold from per day (GA) and for 4 days (madcooltickets.com, 2026). This isn't just any festival. 2026 is an anniversary edition — 10 years for Mad Cool — and to mark this milestone, they built a lineup that silences arguments: Foo Fighters, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Florence + The Machine, Twenty One Pilots, Kings of Leon, Pixies, Pulp, Lorde, Teddy Swims, Charlie Puth and 70+ additional artists (madcoolfestival.es). All Mad Cool Festival tickets are available at TikTik — here you'll also find what's left and what's already sold out.
Mad Cool was founded in 2016 at Caja Mágica in Madrid (Wikipedia, Mad Cool Festival). Within just two years it was already breaking records: in 2018, 240,000 visitors attended over three days (Wikipedia) — a number that ranks it among the largest festivals in Europe. After the COVID break (2020–2021), the festival made a big comeback and in 2023 moved to its new venue — Iberdrola Music in Villaverde.
The Iberdrola Music It's a completely unique venue: 185,000 sq m of leisure and cultural space (globalmusicvibe.com), with a capacity of more than 100,000 people and is powered by 100% renewable energy — the largest green space of its kind on the continent (globalmusicvibe.com). The address: Laguna Dalga, 28021, Madrid (esmadrid.com). Mad Cool 2026's daily capacity stands at about 50,000–55,000 visitors per day — lower than the venue's physical maximum, to keep the experience a bit more breathable (esmadrid.com).
The 2026 edition is the 10. Pearl Jam, Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Muse, The Cure — and now the 10th is here with a lineup that might be the best ever. If you've always said "one day I'll go to Mad Cool" — This time it's happening.
As of April 2026, GA tickets are still available. But some tickets have already sold out — and that's not going to change. Mad Cool Festival 2026 tickets — at TikTik for details and up-to-date prices.
70+ artists spread across 4 days and 2 main stages — the Region of Madrid Stage and the Orange Stage. Each day is a festival in its own right, with a different headliner in style and generation. Here's the full day-by-day breakdown (NME, set times May 2026; The Loud Magazine):
Foo Fighters are one of the biggest bands in rock history. Their headline performance at Mad Cool is considered one of the festival's peak moments. For fans who want to catch them outside Mad Cool too — All Foo Fighters concerts 2026 including European tour packages at TikTik.
Thursday is a day split between worlds: Florence + The Machine are a force of nature live — among the most beautiful performances Mad Cool has ever seen. Alongside them, the Orange Stage with Charlie Puth and Teddy Swims draws a completely different crowd. Thursday is also the perfect setup for Friday.
Tip: If you can only come for one day — Friday, 10 July, is the winning value. Three effective headliners: Pixies (the alternative band that defined a generation), Kings of Leon, and Twenty One Pilots closing at midnight. There's no ticket that's worth more than this.
Nick Cave is one of the greatest artists there is. His performance is an experience with its own emotional weight — which is what connects it to Jarvis Cocker's Pulp, closing out the night at 00:40. Saturday is the day that will leave you with memories that last long after you're back home.
