Festival ADAR 2026
ADAR returns to rural Asturias for its sixth edition: two weeks of chamber music, site-specific performance, and visual-art residencies set in churches, hórreos, mountain villages, and the auditoriums of the region.
The 2026 edition builds around three threads - a chamber-music core with international guests, a touring sub-programme ("ADAR en Ruta") that brings concerts to small Asturian towns, and a series of micro-concerts in unconventional spaces.
