Bilbao BBK Live completes 2022 line-up

The Basque festival returns to Kobetamendi, in the mountains of Bilbao, from 7-9 July.

Kelly Lee Owens, Nilüfer Yanya, the xx’s Romy and Snail Mail have been added to the bill. They join the likes of Four Tet, Caribou, Pet Shop Boys, Mykki Blanco and Bicep, who have been confirmed for the 15th edition of Bilbao BBK Live this summer. The line-up also features Bomba Estéreo, Stromae, LCD Soundsystem, M.I.A. and J Balvin.

The festival’s renowned Bosoa stage – focused on electronic music – returns, hosting sets from Identified Patient, John Talabot, Eris Drew and Helena Hauff. Elsewhere, the 100 BPM Lasai stage will feature Dinamarca, Clara!, Yu Su and a takeover from DJ Python on the Saturday, whose collaborative project Sangre Nueva – with Kelman Duran and Florentino – is also confirmed for the programme.

This July will see Bilbao BBK Live return after the 2020 edition was cancelled as a result of the pandemic. Tickets start from €60. Check out the full line-up and purchase tickets here.
