Two years after his last visit (in the context of the Primavera Sound edition held in Madrid), Fred again… returns to Madrid to offer one of the most awaited concerts of the autumn.
This Friday, October 17, the British artist lands in IFEMA Madrid with his new and ambitious project: “10 weeks, 10 songs, 10 cities”. In Hall 6 of the fairgrounds, some 9,500 people will experience a night that is expected to be historic, both for the technical deployment and for the ephemeral and exclusive nature of the show.
From 10:30 p.m. to 6:00 a.m., Fred again… will offer a DJ set accompanied by artists Skin On Skin, DREA and Toccororo, three names that reinforce the clubber bet of this edition. Beyond the setlist or the staging, the great attraction of the event lies in the fact that one of the ten unreleased songs of the tour will be premiered in Madrid, created specifically for the occasion and linked to the moment, the space and the audience of that night.
A groundbreaking tour: ten cities, ten new songs
Fred again…’s approach to this tour, it could be said, goes beyond the traditional concept of a tour. Each city visited – including Glasgow, Brussels and now Madrid – becomes the epicenter of a unique creation. As the artist himself has stated, “these will be ten of my dream parties, in every sense”. The idea is as simple as it is powerful: a new track every week, composed along the way, and premiered in a set that will only happen once.
Tickets, pre-registration and recommendations for attendance
Tickets will be available on Tuesday, October 14, exclusively for those who completed pre-registration between Sunday 12 and Monday 13 through the AccessTicket platform. The price is over 70 euros plus booking fee, and given the expectation, everything points to be sold out in minutes.
Mobility plan of the City Council
The concert will be held in Pavilion 6 of IFEMA and it is strongly recommended to arrive by public transport. The Feria de Madrid Metro station (Line 8) is the closest, and there are several EMT and Cercanías lines for easy access. For those arriving by car, IFEMA’s yellow and purple parking lots offer some 3,800 parking spaces (for a fee).
In addition, the Madrid City Council has designed a special mobility plan with police reinforcement, occasional traffic cuts on Avenida del Partenón and areas set aside for cabs, VTC and accompanying vehicles (“Kiss & Ride” zone). The use of cell phones will be restricted during the event -stickers will be provided to cover the cameras- and re-entry to the venue will not be allowed once inside.
