More than 35,000 people celebrated Iberdrola's 125th anniversary in Madrid at a charity music festival featuring top artists

  • Lenny Kravitz, Manuel Carrasco, Ana Mena, Álvaro de Luna and Lola Bozzano performed at the Iberdrola Music Festival
  • Proceeds from ticket sales will support projects tackling cancer and hunger, helping vulnerable young people, assisting families affected by the storm and promoting the employment of people with disabilities or at risk of social exclusion

More than 35,000 people gathered in Madrid for the Iberdrola Music Festival, enjoying over seven hours of live music as part of the celebrations marking the company’s 125th anniversary.

Europe's largest sustainable venue for leisure and cultural events, Iberdrola Music, came alive with performances from leading Spanish and international artists. Opening the festival, Lola Bozzano, Álvaro de Luna, Ana Mena, Manuel Carrasco and Lenny Kravitz delivered a series of standout performances, creating an electric atmosphere and a strong connection with the audience throughout the day.

Cristina Boscá, co-host of Anda Ya on LOS40, hosted the festival and introduced each act, while fellow LOS40 presenter and DJ David Álvarez kept the energy high with music sets between performances.

Festivalgoers also enjoyed a wide range of entertainment throughout the day.

The event also had a strong charitable purpose. Proceeds from ticket sales will fund social projects led by five non-profit organisations: the Spanish Association Against Cancer, Action Against Hunger, Fundación Tu Techo, Betania and Fundación Integra.

A nationwide celebration

The Iberdrola Music Festival in Madrid has become one of the flagship events of the 125 Light Years programme, which celebrates the company's anniversary throughout 2026 with events across Spain.

The Madrid festival follows the celebration held in Bilbao on 12 June, where nearly 40,000 people enjoyed performances by Juanes, Antonio Orozco, Rigoberta Bandini and Süne, culminating in Spain's largest-ever drone show, powered entirely by renewable energy.

The music programme will continue in Valencia on 28 November, with performances by Estopa and Mafalda Cardenal.

Alongside the music festivals, the 125 Light Years programme includes exhibitions, community events and the illumination of iconic landmarks. Together, these initiatives celebrate Iberdrola's 125-year history of innovation, its commitment to people and its role in driving progress through electrification, while looking ahead to the future and strengthening its ties with the communities where it operates.
