What's the Screamin' about?
Imagine spending a week by the Mediterranean, surrounded by people who share your passion for 1950s music and culture.
Monday and Tuesday are our Warm-Up Days — the perfect time to arrive, settle in, meet old and new friends, and start soaking up the unique Screamin’ atmosphere. Both evenings feature our traditional Meeting Time gatherings, the ideal way to kick off an unforgettable week.
From Wednesday to Sunday, the festival comes alive from morning until late at night. During the day, enjoy live bands, DJs, pool parties, vintage shopping, dancing, special events and a fantastic atmosphere at Hotel Balmes, while still having time to relax on the beach, by the pool or explore the beautiful seaside town of Calella.
When the sun goes down, the action moves across the festival venues with spectacular live rockabilly, rock ‘n’ roll, rhythm & blues and country concerts, original vinyl DJs, dance nights and much more.
Since 1999, Screamin’ Festival has welcomed visitors from more than 20 countries, becoming one of Europe’s most international celebrations of 1950s music and lifestyle.
