Sete Sóis Sete Luas
Sete Sóis Sete Luas is an international festival that connects Tavernes de la Valldigna with a cultural network of towns and cities across the Mediterranean and the Lusophone world. Its proposal combines popular music, traditional roots, artistic encounters and a summer atmosphere closely linked to open-air spaces.
In Tavernes, the festival is experienced as an invitation to discover sounds, languages and flavours from other territories while staying connected to the local landscape: Clot de la Font, Sant Llorenç, the beach and the municipality’s meeting places.

A festival that fits Tavernes
Tavernes de la Valldigna is a particularly suitable setting for this festival because it brings together culture, landscape and shared experiences. Performances can be enjoyed as close, approachable experiences in spaces where music connects with nature, the beach or local heritage.
The festival helps reinforce the idea of Tavernes as an open Mediterranean destination, where culture is not limited to an auditorium but can also be enjoyed in natural sites, squares, hermitages and meeting places.
Clot de la Font
How the experience works
Although each edition has its own programme, the way Sete Sóis Sete Luas is experienced in Tavernes usually keeps the same essence: summer concerts, unique settings, artists from different backgrounds and a calm atmosphere for listening, discovering and sharing.
Check the current edition
Before coming, it is advisable to check dates, schedules, artists, venues and possible complementary activities for the current edition.
Choose the venue
The programme may be distributed between spaces such as Clot de la Font, Sant Llorenç or the beach area, depending on the year.
Complete the day
The festival can be combined with the beach, walks, gastronomy, gentle routes or a longer stay in Tavernes.
Venues with their own character
One of the strengths of the festival in Tavernes is its relationship with the venues. Clot de la Font offers a natural and very recognisable atmosphere; Sant Llorenç connects with local tradition and landscapes; and the beach area opens the programme to the Mediterranean atmosphere of summer nights.
This means that each concert is not only a performance, but also a different way to discover the municipality. The audience can enjoy international music while visiting places that form part of the identity of Tavernes.
Summer venues
Music, exchange and shared culture
Sete Sóis Sete Luas supports projects that bring together musicians, traditions and different audiences. Popular music, Mediterranean roots, fado, Atlantic sounds, percussion and contemporary languages can all appear within the same programme.
The value of the proposal lies in that mixture: artists who travel, audiences who discover other cultures and municipalities that join a wider cultural network. Tavernes participates from a position that is very consistent with its Mediterranean character.
Shared culture
