Thoughtfully designed lineups have always been one of the festival’s greatest strengths, and this year proved no exception. From Maribou State’s opening performance—setting the tone from the outset—to Folamour’s soulful finale that encapsulated the weekend’s collective energy, audiences enjoyed a wide-ranging showcase of acts blending established artists with rising talents.
Marlon Hoffstadt delivered a powerful live set that became an instant highlight, while Klangkuenstler’s Outworld captivated with his intensity and audiovisual artistry. Róisín Murphy mesmerized the crowd with her unmatched stage charisma and hypnotic soundscapes, while DJ Gigola’s 360º techno session stood out as one of the weekend’s most memorable moments. Other highlight performances came from Nina Kraviz, Chris Stussy, Chloé Caillet, Adriatique, Marco Carola, Patrick Mason, Maceo Plex, Anetha, and Loco Dice—each raising the energy to the highest levels.
Equally significant was the Open Stage by Von Dutch Loves, which in its second year showcased 21 emerging DJs selected through an open call. This initiative not only allowed new talent to perform before thousands but also reinforced Brunch Electronik’s values of inclusivity, diversity, and community engagement.
Beyond the music, Brunch Electronik distinguishes itself through a strong focus on responsibility and sustainability. It’s B!HUB platform promoted mindful practices such as reusable cups, recycling points, and safe-space policies. Initiatives like Punto Lila (gender violence prevention), the LGTBIQ+ hub, Music For All (supporting people with functional diversity), and Fiesta Segura (providing on-site psychological support) further underlined the festival’s role as a safe and inclusive environment.
Sustainability also took centre stage. Partnering with Repsol, the festival powered its generators with 100% renewable fuel—significantly cutting its environmental impact and setting new standards for eco-conscious practices in large-scale events.
At the same time, Warm-Up Electronik returned for its second year, blending fitness and sound. The event brought together 1,000 participants for a workout led by Nike trainer Mireia Borrás, paired with a live DJ soundtrack—an innovative crossover between music and urban lifestyle.
Brunch Electronik also expanded the experience with official afterparties at iconic city clubs, including INPUT, La Terrrazza, and Sala Upload, giving attendees the option to extend their celebration till the early hours of the morning.
Following the success of the 2025 edition, anticipation is already growing for Brunch Electronik Festival 2026. A limited round of Super Early Bird tickets has gone on sale.
With flawless production, top artistry, and a strong social mission, Brunch Electronik Festival has cemented its reputation not just as a summer cornerstone in Barcelona but as an international cultural reference point, embodying the city’s cosmopolitan essence and reinforcing its place on the global festival map. Now the event continues to evolve, becoming a movement that unites music, culture, and community.
