BAM 2024
By Charlotte Stace
Just when you thought the music festival season was coming to a close, we get a new edition of BAM Festival - “Musical Action Barcelona". One of the city’s most important music festivals of the past two decades, it brings city dwellers the opportunity to discover new talent in the worlds of dance, electronica, rock and pop. What better way to bring summer to a close?
The festival selects acts based on their alignment with BAM’s core mission: a desire to explore new sounds and aesthetics, and give a voice to diverse and underrepresented communities that have been previously overlooked. So, you can expect over 40 groups to descend on the city and fill a number of stages across the city with a unique mix of concerts.
And, if you didn’t already know, the festival coincides with La Mercè, the city’s patron saint festival. In this way, BAM also acts as a musical celebration of our city.
