Mojacar Rockabilly Weekend 2018
Mojácar Rockabilly Weekend 2018 will be held in the coastal Almería town this weekend (April 27 to 29 2018), where there will be music and much more for everyone, but will be of special interest for avid followers of 50’s music and lifestyle.
This is the first edition of this special Mojácar event. With Pike Calvero as master of ceremonies introducing national and international acts, the highlight will be on the Saturday night, with performances by AJ & The Rockin’ Trio, Kick’em Jenny, Marcos Sendarrubias and Mario Cobo. Advance tickets for this event cost 25 € or 30 € on the door.
There is also a full programme of free activities, including performances by top rockabilly stars such as Al Dual (recently awarded Best Rockabilly Soloist at the prestigious 2018 Ameripolitan Music Awards) and Diego Cruz, both on the Friday from 10.00 p.m. The Radions and Saint Peter Square will also perform on Saturday from 2.00 p.m. onwards and, Sunday afternoon’s beach party will include a guitar show by Mario Cobo and Daniel Álvarez.
The Mojácar Rockabilly Weekend, following the success of last year’s Almeria’s Desert Wind Festival, is a musical event not to be missed which also includes a Flea Market where you can find 50’s clothes and accessories. Bars, terraces and restaurants will be open with dance classes by Al Swing and Al Cabo. The best DJs will also be there, including the classic sounds and skills of Juke Box Johnny, Zapata, Bob Hop and Rhythm Boy Dam.
