Catalonia is known for its festivals and outdoor activities—so much so, that some of them aren’t even just for adults. Just northwest of Barcelona, the ‘Petits Camaleons’ festival for little ones sold out this weekend at the town of Sant Cugat del Vallès.

‘Bonus Track’

The festival’s name translated to ‘Little Cameleons’ in English. Its edition was called ‘Bonus Track,’ picking back up where the festival had to leave off on October 1, canceled due to the country’s political situation. In the morning on February 18, the little concert-goers enjoyed the ambient music of Joan Miquel Oliver, the disco stylings of Fundación Tony Manero, and reggae made for children by The Penguins. Later, in the afternoon, one of the most anticipated acts—Txarango, local Catalan fun-in-the-sun music—took to the stage.

Joan Miquel Oliver

The artistic director of the festival, Albert Puig, explained to the Catalan News Agency (ACN) that him and the organization are very satisfied because they “were able to save this edition of the festival” after everything that happened on October 1, albeit in a “much smaller version.”
