Guess what, prog fans? The nerdiest festival on the block, BE PROG! MY FRIEND…, is back for 2025! Mark your calendars (or consult a mathematician to decode those prog-time signatures) for September 27-28 at Barcelona’s La Carpa – Poble Espanyol. This year’s lineup? Ten whole bands! Because why settle for normal human attention spans?
TESSERACT (fun fact: their name refers to a 4D shape – because 3D riffs are for peasants),
THE PINEAPPLE THIEF (no, they don’t steal tropical fruit – though their 2003 debut did go bananas),
WEATHER SYSTEMS (newcomers making stormy atmospheric rock), and
THRESHOLD (active since 1988 – they’ve outlasted three Star Trek captains).
Full lineup’s on the flyer below. Bring your thinking caps – this ain’t a TikTok dance party.
