A Coruña hosted a new edition of the Noroeste Estrella Galicia Festival this weekend, the thirty-eighth in a row, where 115,000 people enjoyed various concerts across the six stages throughout the city of Heracles. Five days in which up to 38 concerts were held, all of them free, with names such as Luar na Lubre, La Yegros, Mondra, P.P Arnold, Guadi Galego, Siloé or The Vaccines. These were the acts that 28,000 people enjoyed on Saturday night, while the Galician beach festival, with Carlos Ares, Luar na Lubre, and Grande Amore, brought together 30,000 people.

Azcárraga Square had one of the best Wednesdays sunsets in recent years, with almost 1,800 people in attendance for the concerts by J.P. Bimeni and Annie and The Caldwells. Albert Pla, with nearly 10,000 people, was one of the most successful acts at María Pita, and the Castillo de Santo Antón was completely sold out for the three days that music played inside the fortress.

The Northwest Record Market and the Harvest Market were two alternative proposals with a large influx of people from Thursday to Sunday.
