Music Festival at Denia Castle

Music Festival at Denia Castle

Denia is full of activity during the summer and music plays one of the greatest roles. The 15th Traditional and Popular Music Festival unfolds in a very special place, the Castle of Dénia that, together with the square named Plaza del Consell, becomes the privileged scene of the concerts in a gathering that is held each year with great success. These summer nights invite us to enjoy the shows offered by companies and performers from many different places both nationally and internationally.

The Music at the Castle opens on Tuesday 1st August with a passacaglia that parades from the port and the street called Marqués de Campo to the Plaza del Consell, where the percussion group La Banda del Surdo will perform. Later on Urbàlia Rurana and Romántica del Saladar will also play. Until 12th August the nocturnal performances of different music and dance styles will continue.
