Noctámbula 2026 is coming to Santa Cruz de Tenerife on 12 September, with a festival format that aims to be about considerably more than standing in front of a stage for a few hours.
The Recinto Ferial will be transformed into a mix of music, food, entertainment, digital experiences, local creativity and plenty of places to simply relax and enjoy the day.
Doors open at 3pm, giving visitors plenty of time to settle in before the evening gets going.
More than just the music
One of the main ideas behind Noctámbula is that there should be something happening away from the stages too.
Visitors can dance, try traditional Canarian food from the various food trucks, relax in chill-out areas, explore gaming and digital experiences, or have a look around the local fashion and craft stalls.
Enrique Camacho, producer of Noctámbula Art & Music, says the festival has been designed around the audience rather than simply the artists on stage.
The idea is that you can enjoy the festival in your own way, rather than spending the entire day watching the next act.
A festival divided into different worlds
The venue will be split into several areas, each with its own atmosphere while sharing the same overall artistic style.
The Terrace will be the main outdoor welcome area, with food, drinks and a more relaxed atmosphere. It will also be where the music starts, with early performances from Tay de León and Claudia Rutten.
As daylight fades, the action will gradually move towards the indoor areas.
The Experience will bring together gaming and digital entertainment, connecting electronic culture with interactive activities.
There will also be a Market KM0, giving local designers and artisans the chance to showcase their work.
Three stages and a big finale
Music will be spread across three main stages: The Terrace Stage, 360 Stage and Main Stage.
Each one will have a different role as the festival moves from afternoon into the evening.
The night will culminate with Symphony of Unity, which will make its only appearance in Spain in 2026 at Noctámbula, alongside performances from artists from the Canary Islands.
VIP and Ultimate experiences
There will also be options for those who would rather experience the festival with a little more comfort.
The VIP area will include an exclusive dining and relaxation space close to the main festival action.
The Ultimate experience goes a step further, offering personalised service and more premium dining.
