The fifth edition of the festival showed just how much this festival has grown in such a short time, attracting a record-breaking 100,000 attendees and creating stage designs that are more and more captivating.

The main stage was 35 meters high and in the shape of a modernized pyramid with extravagant lighting setups.

The Air Europa Stage had a more classic festival look being in the shape of a rectangle, but with impressive projection setups. The Live and Techno stage was inspired by the video game Space Invaders and had the game’s characters displayed. 

A Summer Story created an unintentional spinoff party

As the festival hs gained popularity and attracts bigger and bigger crowds, the road to Ciudad del Rock, overtaken by festival-goers, has become a sort of party in and of itself. 

This tailgate party culture has become almost an official part of the festival as people gather in the massive parking lot between the hours the festival runs (8 PM to 8 AM).
