Skate Love Music Festival bills itself as a global celebration of music, dancing and roller skating. It runs for four days at a beach event location next to the Mar Bella Sports Complex, and the organisers promise it will "bring together dancers, roller skaters and music lovers from all over the world to groove, roll, and connect. Filled with live sets by top European and US DJs, performances, and endless energy, all set against the stunning backdrop of Barcelona’s vibrant culture."

DJs on the impressively diverse European-American lineup include DJ Bart, Flo Real, Jitwan, KAPI, Megatronic, Willy Soul and many more. Most impressive of all is Sunday's special guest: the master of the Detroit techno/house hybrid sound, Moodymann, pictured. Final-release weekend tickets and individual day tickets are still available at www.skatelovebcn.com, and thankfully the organisers promise you "don't need skates to feel the excitement, just your five senses to enjoy as a spectator a world that will captivate you from the first moment".
