María Becerra, "La Nena de Argentina", new big confirmation for BIGSOUND Torrevieja 2026

BIGSOUND continues to solidify its position as one of Europe's leading urban and mainstream music festivals and has announced a new lineup for its first edition in Torrevieja . On July 25th and 26th, 2026 , Antonio Soria Park will host the festival's debut in the city, with Maria Becerra headlining, joined by Chema Rivas , Metrika (DJ Set) , and Inazio .

These new names join the already announced Myke Towers, Ana Mena, Juan Magán, Omar Montes, Leire Martínez, Ptazeta, Marc Seguí and Paula Koops , forming a program that reflects the talent, diversity and energy that define the DNA of BIGSOUND.

Authentic, powerful, and with an unstoppable international impact, Maria Becerra , known as La Nena de Argentina , will land at BIGSOUND Torrevieja 2026 with a show that promises to be one of the festival's highlights. Having become the most listened-to Argentine artist in the world , her career—from digital phenomenon to stadium sell-outs—is one of the most solid and impressive rises in recent Latin music.

With his unique blend of reggaeton, pop, R&B, trap, and electronic music, he has produced global hits such as “¿Qué Más Pues?” , “Miénteme” , “Automático” , “Ojalá” , “Corazón Vacío” , and “TE CURA” , in addition to collaborating with artists like J Balvin, TINI, Camila Cabello, Becky G, Enrique Iglesias, Duki, and Pablo Alborán. His impact has been recognized with Billboard, Gardel, MTV MIAW, Lo Nuestro, and LOS40 Music Awards, as well as Latin Grammy nominations. His performance in Torrevieja will be a unique event in the province of Alicante .

Alongside the Argentinian superstar, Chema Rivas will bring his fresh and direct sound to the lineup, a style that blends Latin pop, urban rhythms, and light electronica, designed for live performances and the festival environment. Since his breakthrough with tracks like “Mil Tequilas” and “Entre Tú y Yo,” he has established himself as one of the most consistent names in Spanish urban pop, with a career marked by his connection with young audiences and an increasingly frequent presence at major festivals.

Metrika , one of the most unique and powerful voices on the Spanish urban scene, will arrive at BIGSOUND Torrevieja in a DJ set . Her style, which fuses trap, rap, and autotune with an uncompromising attitude, has made her a leading figure for a new generation of artists who value authenticity, their own unique voice, and a strong visual identity. Her releases and live performances are characterized by raw energy and a narrative that breaks the mold within the national urban music scene.

Completing this lineup is Inazio , one of the most prominent emerging voices in the new Spanish urban pop scene. With a stylish and contemporary sound, carefully crafted melodies, and relatable lyrics, he has connected with a young audience seeking catchy songs with personality. Tracks like “Lo Que Haga Falta,” “Norte,” and “Sálvame” position him as one of the names to watch within a generation that is redefining the pop sound in Spain.

The Councillor for Youth, Domingo Paredes, declared that “it is extraordinary news for Torrevieja to announce the addition of an internationally renowned artist like María Becerra to the BIGSOUND Torrevieja 2026 lineup. We are talking about one of the most influential figures in contemporary Latin music, with a tremendous connection to young audiences, and her presence places our city firmly on the circuit of major European festivals.” Paredes also affirmed that “BIGSOUND’s debut in Torrevieja represents a firm step in our commitment to a modern, diverse cultural program designed for new generations.”

For her part, Rosario Martínez, Councilor for Tourism, highlighted that “this festival is not just about music; it’s also an opportunity to revitalize the city, generate economic impact, and strengthen Torrevieja’s image as an attractive destination for youth and cultural tourism. The collaboration between the City Council and BIGSOUND is an example of how to combine efforts to offer top-tier events.” Furthermore, Martínez Chazarra concluded, “the special discount for residents demonstrates a clear commitment to our residents, especially the young people of Torrevieja, who will be able to enjoy a large-scale festival at an affordable price.”

Since its inception in Valencia, BIGSOUND has attracted over 300,000 attendees and generated an economic impact exceeding €200 million , establishing itself as one of Europe's most important urban and mainstream music festivals. Its expansion to cities like Pontevedra, Seville, and Barakaldo has confirmed its ability to revitalize local areas and attract both national and international audiences.

EXPANSION, AWARDS AND RECOGNITION

In just five editions, BIGSOUND has surpassed 300,000 attendees , establishing itself as the largest music event in Valencia and one of the top five festivals in the Valencian Community.

Tangana, Lola Índigo, Ozuna, Duki, Nathy Peluso, Sebastián Yatra, Quevedo, Bad Gyal, Amaia, and Mora , among many others.
