Overview
- The festival held its eighth edition at Estadio Fray Nano and, for the first time, spanned two full days, reinforcing its standing in Latin America’s alternative scene.
- Pavement made their Mexico debut and opened with PA problems before pushing through a set of fan favorites, including the TikTok-resurgent “Harness Your Hopes.”
- The Horrors’ return stood out as a festival peak, blending new Night Life material with signature tracks like “Still Life” and “Sea Within a Sea.”
- Day two emphasized psych and experimental heavyweights: Spiritualized delivered an immersive set, Deafheaven impressed despite reported sound issues, coverage split on Dinosaur Jr.’s uneven execution, and Motorama’s closer faced audio and guitar troubles.
- Japanese Breakfast earned a warm reception, Austin TV took a prominent hometown slot to perform Indra in full, and outlets noted tickets are already on sale for a ninth edition.
