Barcelona’s hard techno scene is preparing for one of its biggest weekends of the year as DURO Festival XXL takes over Espai Can Guitet in Montmel\u00f3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two-day event brings together an international lineup featuring Klangkuenstler, Kobosil, Ben Klock, Vendex, Fatima Hajji, Novah, Rooler, Chl\u00e4r and many more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With three dedicated stages and a program spanning multiple styles of techno and hard dance, the festival aims to deliver an intense experience for fans of the harder side of electronic music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organizers have reported that 98% of the festival’s total capacity has already been sold, highlighting the strong demand for this October edition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Klangkuenstler Leads an Impressive International Lineup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the most anticipated performances comes from German techno heavyweight Klangkuenstler, who is scheduled to deliver a special two-and-a-half-hour DJ set on Saturday, October 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Known for his powerful, fast-paced techno and uncompromising approach to the genre, Klangkuenstler has established himself as one of the defining artists of the contemporary hard techno movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunday’s program will bring another impressive selection of international talent, including Kobosil, Vendex, Onlynumbers and WINSON.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lineup also includes a series of special back-to-back performances, with Andr\u00e9s Campo joining Future.666 and Spanish electronic music figures Fatima Hajji and Buenri sharing the decks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three Stages Exploring Different Sides of Techno<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

DURO Festival XXL features three stages designed to showcase different styles and approaches to high-energy electronic music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main Duro Stage hosts some of the festival’s headline performances, while Black Hangar focuses on a selection of underground techno artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Hangar’s program includes Ben Klock, Alarico and Chl\u00e4r on Sunday, alongside Saturday performances from Novah, Sant\u00f8s and Cera Khin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Cargo Stage brings harder sounds into the spotlight with artists such as Kruelty, Rooler, Krowdexx, So Juice, Anderex and Toxic Machinery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The combination of established techno names and artists associated with contemporary hard dance reflects the festival’s increasingly diverse musical direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Official Afterparty Extends the Experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For attendees looking to continue the experience after the festival’s closing sets, DURO has also organized an official afterparty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scheduled for Sunday, October 11, from 11 PM until 6 AM the following morning, the event will take place at Terminal Sabadell, formerly known as Waka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located approximately 15 minutes by car from the main festival site, the venue will host an additional night dedicated to hard techno.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The afterparty operates as a separate event, with its own ticketing arrangements, including special admission options for DURO Festival attendees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hard Techno Continues Its Expansion in Spain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The return of DURO Festival XXL reflects the growing visibility of hard techno and harder electronic music styles within Spain’s festival circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artists associated with industrial techno, high-BPM productions and contemporary hard dance are increasingly appearing on large-scale festival lineups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DURO’s format brings these different sounds together in Montmel\u00f3, offering audiences the opportunity to experience both established international performers and emerging names across a full weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a nearly sold-out edition, three stages and a lineup spanning several generations of electronic music, DURO Festival XXL is set to make Montmel\u00f3 a major destination for hard techno fans this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The festival takes place on October 10 and 11, 2026, at Espai Can Guitet in Montmel\u00f3, near Barcelona, Spain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
