1. Las Rozas' Fiestas de San Miguel
Las Rozas opens its autumn calendar with a nine-day town festival split across two venues on the edge of Madrid. From 25 to 27 September, ticketed shows at the Centro Multiusos bring in Spanish pop name Pablo López, before the programme shifts to free concerts at the Recinto Ferial fairground from 1 October. Expect rides, food stalls and open-air bars alongside the music, typical of a fiesta patronal just outside the capital.

2. CaixaBank Madrid Live Experience
Gran Teatro CaixaBank Príncipe Pío turns into a week-long concert festival for its sixth edition, running family-friendly daytime shows alongside evening concerts. The line-up crosses genres, pairing Spanish pop-rock name Bebe with Italian blues-rock artist Zucchero, plus sets from folk duo Perotá Chingó and pianist Riopy. Each artist plays a separate date, so it works more like a run of standalone concerts than a single festival night.
