The sixth edition of the La Sub25 festival is taking place this Saturday at Madrid Río, in the Arganzuela district, offering a free program of music, dance, performance, and digital art for young talent.

The event, running from 8:30 PM to 2:30 AM, will feature the Explanada Negra Multiusos, the Nave de Terneras, and the open spaces of Madrid Río as its main stages. In collaboration with Madrid Orgullo (MADO), the festival aims to promote active audience participation and artistic experimentation in an accessible environment.
The dance and performance program will showcase pieces by creators such as EMPTY ROOMS, Llume Cía, and Colectivo D’elas, with musical openings by Sound Klau and festive closings by Colectivo Chipén.
The greenhouse's side path will host scenic proposals, recitals, and literary activities featuring young performers, poets, and collectives like MIAÜ, La Sussi, and Alma Dinamita, alongside participatory formats such as the “PowerPoint Party”.
The Nave de Terneras will be transformed into a digital art and technological experimentation laboratory, presenting installations, projections, 3D animation, and stage pieces that combine dance, image, and sound. It will also host a photographic exhibition and avant-garde musical sessions.
Additionally, the festival will include zones for collective creation, such as sustainable sewing workshops, astronomical observation, a sound caravan, and free expression murals. There will also be areas for creative makeup, hairstyling, circular fashion, inclusion activities, sustainability, circus workshops, and sign language.
