Miki Núñez will close the first weekend with a new tour in which she will present the songs from her new album yet to be presented, as well as the hits from her previous works. She will also present Rosario’s album, which will interpret pieces from Te lo digo to y no te digo na, her first work in five years in which she mixes styles such as rumba, ballads, blues, reggae and, of course, flamenco .
A new album is also brought by Els Amics de les Arts, who return to the festival on the 22nd to present Allà on volia. Others that repeat are Taburete, which will perform on the 24th presenting Matadero 5, with collaborations by artists such as José Mercé, Omar Montes or La Húngara. A new song is what Pablo López will bring under his arm, who returns with the song Quasi after a year of silence. For his part, the children’s audience will enjoy the performance of Dàmaris Gelabert, who this year celebrates his 25th anniversary on stage.
The president of Grupo Clipper’s, Juli Guiu, emphasizes that the festival will bring “the great artists of the moment to the Cerdanya area” with an offer that will include an expanded offer of the Village space managed by White Summer, responsible for the festival of the same name in the Empordà with ten years of history, a gastronomic offer that will be accompanied by live performances by emerging artists and visual shows. For his part, the mayor of Puigcerdà, Albert Piñeira, has highlighted that Summerfest Cerdanya expands the region’s leisure offer “and is an element of tourist dynamism”.
