It will be a special day, green lighting the three-day festival but the Welcome Party will have its own eclectic and spectacular line up, integrating 16 bands varying between indie pop, hard rock, flamenco, trap, and post-punk. Headlining the day will be Rosalía and Bring Me The Horizon, there will also be unmissable performances from Lykke Li, Metronomy, Viagra Boys and more!

In previous editions, the opening party was held in Madrid’s city centre, but now Mad Cool 2019 will open at the festival site itself, in Valdebebas. The line-up for the WELCOME PARTY will be divided into 4 different stages and artists will perform to a limited capacity of just 50,000 people. This extra day means the fans who are able to secure one of the limited number of tickets for Wednesday 10^th July can enjoy the Mad Cool Festivalexperience in the special space, getting the most out of the facilities, without the crowds of the festival proper, as a unique and one-off event.
