Mika to return to Barcelona's Les Nits Occident music festival on July 2

The Lebanon-born, London- and Paris-raised artist Mika will return to Barcelona's Les Nits Occident music festival on July 2.

The organization announced the addition of the international musician on Monday, as well as the Spanish artist Raphael.

Mika will perform on July 2 with tickets already on sale, and Raphael on July 9.

The artist played at the Les Nits de Pedralbes in July 2024.

Aside from Mika and Raphael, the music festival had already announced other national and international artists, such as Sting, Il Volo, Diana Krall, Rosario, and Judit Neddermann.

The festival will be headlined by Sting, the singer and bassist of iconic band The Police, who returns to Barcelona for the first time since his last visit nine years ago.

The concert will be part of his new 'Sting 3.0' tour, which has been recorded for an album that revisits his greatest hits, both from his solo career and with The Police.

Diana Krall, one of the most acclaimed and beloved figures in contemporary jazz, will perform at the festival on July 17.

The festival will take place at the Jardins del Palau de Pedralbes in Barcelona in June and July 2026.
