North Festival 2026: the alternative rock festival in Maia, Portugal
Each year, North Festival transforms the Complexo Desportivo in Maia, near Porto, into a crossroads of international alternative and indie rock. This Portuguese festival celebrates experimental sounds and visionary artists in northern Portugal.
The 2026 edition features legends like THE CURE, new wave and gothic rock pioneers, Snow Patrol in alternative rock, and Mogwai in experimental post-rock.
The lineup explores rock's boundaries: noise pop, experimental rock, dance-rock, with a strong identity rooted in sonic innovation. The festival provides a platform for artists pushing the limits of rock and electro.
