Enough with calling it “back to school”: it’s back to the living room. September is the month of the tabula rasa, of starting over (again) by premiering live bands. In September 2025, classics from the 2000s (such as the comeback of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah) or just classics, such as The Offspring, return to Madrid.
But also concerts with the darkness of C.O.F.F.F.I.N., Twin Tribes or Eddie Dark, the firecracker of Locomía, Chimo Bayo and Rebeca or the contemporaneity of Madrid’s Rusowsky, who left such a brilliant Tiny Desk for posterity.
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah (September 11)
They celebrate nothing more and nothing less than twenty years on stage. To Clap Your Hands Say Yeah we owe infinite dances with that song that everyone, but absolutely everyone, has heard at least once in their lives (The Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth, with that intentionally off-key voice). Now, they come to review their greatest hits and to present their latest album New Fragility.
Tickets: from 25€.
Where: Lula Club, on Gran Vía. Lula Club, at Gran Vía, 54 (Downtown)
C.O.F.F.F.I.N (September 11th)
After their performance at Azkena Rock Festival, C.O.F.F.F.I.N starts their tour in Spain (Zaragoza, Madrid, Valencia, Barcelona) to leave everything on stage with their chaotic punk and those contagious and catchy rhythms.
Tickets: from 20€.
Where: Sala El Sol, Jardines street, 3 (Sala Sol)
Twin Tribes (September 13)
The fact that they were born in Texas, where the sticky heat and the stories of swamps and serial killers stir on our collective imagination, gives them prestige. Twin Tribes are pure dark wave or gothic rock, if you prefer, but whatever you choose, you will find in their live show: darkness, eighties rhythms, a stage presence that absorbs your soul as Nosferatu would.
Tickets: 30€
Where? Sala Mon, in the street of Hilarión Eslava, 36 (Chamberí)
A festival with rock night, young night and remember night (from September 11 to 13)
The Joaquín Sabina Auditorium in Fuenlabrada is hosting one of the last festivals of the summer, with three nights and three different themes: the first, pure rock with bands such as Rage, Leo Jiménez, Sakata and Iron Savior (September 11); the second evening, with Recycled J, Las Ninyas del Corro, Selekto & Susana Montaña; and the third day, a big “Yo fui a EGB” (I went to EGB) party with Boney M., Locomía, Rebeca, Ku Minerva, Whigfield and Chimo Bayo, with Leticia Sabater as host.
Tickets Noche Joven and Noche Rock: freeTickets Yo Fui a EGB. The party: 10€ for registered in Fuenlabrada; 20€ general admission.
Where: Joaquín Sabina Auditorium Joaquín Sabina Auditorium (Parque Recinto Ferial Fuenlabrada)
Biig Piig (September 17)
The Irish boom is a reality (in truth, it always was). The bands that come out of this glorious island come with fresh, innovative, vindictive proposals that do not know what silence is. This is the case of Jessica Smyth who with her project Biig Piig explores the margins of hyperpop, trip-hop or house. She will present her album 11:11 on September 17.
Tickets: from 22€.
Where: Sala Mon, at 36 Hilarión Eslava St. (Chamberí)
Floodlights (September 20)
They are called Floodlights and in their new album (Underneath) they appear submerged in a swimming pool. Immersed in exciting sounds, new, closer to art-rock, intense, daring constructions… bravo.
Tickets: from 16,20€.
Where: Sala Wurlitzer Ballroom, 12 Tres Cruces Street (Gran Vía).
Damiano David (September 22)
Damiano David (singer of Måneskin, band that in 2021 became winners of the 65th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest) released in May this year his first solo album (Funny Little Fears) that he now presents with an ambitious world tour. After his passage as headliner of Bilbao BBK Live, he now arrives at Movistar Arena to present this new facet.
Tickets: from 50,50€.
Where: Movistar Arena, at Goya Street, 90 (Salamanca neighborhood).
Giorgio Poi (September 23)
Giorgio Poi‘s music, with its unmistakable Mediterranean pop, transforms any venue into an authentically Italian experience. Poi will present his fourth album on September 23rd at Sala Villanos in Madrid.
Tickets: from 18€.
Where: Sala Villanos, at 18, Bernardino Obregón St. (Embajadores)
The Happy Fits (September 24)
The Happy Fits. The Happy Fits. The Happy Fits? We don’t think this is the true translation of a name that hides an ambitious and daring project. Calvin Langman sings and plays the cello in songs that are continuous surprises, script twists, absolute somersaults: you don’t know where this quartet will take you, in each live performance.
Tickets: from 16,20€.
Where: Sala El Sótano, Calle de las Maldonadas, 6 (La Latina)
DroneArt Show (September 25, 26 and 27)
A string quartet will perform great classical music scores (such as The Four Seasons by Vivaldi; The Swan, by Camille Saint-Saëns; or Swan Lake by Tchaikovsky), with more than 20,000 thousand candles at their feet and hundreds of drones in the sky.
💸Tickets: from 29€.
Where. Avenida del Padre Huidobro, S/N, A6 KM 8 (Moncloa – Aravaca)
Rusowsky (September 25)
Ruslán Mediavilla is from Fuenlabrada and is a scoundrel: he mixes R&B with techno and reggaeton and explores jazz and gives it a hip hop base. In his madness, his greatness. Rusowsky will fill Movistar Arena, location that has just expanded tickets for this event.
Tickets: from 28€.
Where: Movistar Arena, at 90 Goya Street (Salamanca neighborhood).
The Offspring + Simple Plan (September 26th)
The dream of every millennial hooked on MTV, we can say. Californians The Offspring are coming to Madrid as part of their Supercharged Worldwide Tour to present their eleventh studio album, Supercharged. They will do so in the company of the Canadians Simple Plan.
Tickets: from 40 ¤.
Where: Palacio Vistalegre Palacio Vistalegre, at Calle de Utebo, 1 (Carabanchel)
Eddie Dark (September 26)
Is he a vampire? That’s how we would like to imagine it, because that’s how the enigmatic and dark Eddie Dark appears on stage. Nikolas Petsitis is quite a character, who devotes himself body and soul to the sensuality of EBM and the melancholy of underground synth punk.
Tickets: from 15€.
Where: Goya Social Club, Goya street, 43 (Salamanca neighborhood)
Yung Beef (September 26)
Fernandito, Fernandito, how dangerous you are, Fernandito. Yung Beef closes cycle saying goodbye to his “Day of the Beast” era. He will do it with “trap, fire and pure attitude” at Autocine Madrid.
Tickets: from 40€.
Where? Autocine Madrid, at 2, Java Island Street (Fuencarral-El Pardo).
