Bad Gyal, one of the artists of the moment, performs today Thursday 18 May after her spectacular sold outs in Barcelona and Madrid with her new album, “La Joia”. Black Eyed Peas is also one of the highlights of the Mallorca Live Festival 2023. The Los Angeles trio, winners of six Grammy awards and authors of anthems like ‘Where Is The Love?’ and ‘I Gotta Feeling’, will headline the second day of the festival on Friday the 19th of May, in what will be their first date in Spain in 2023 and their first visit to the Balearic Islands.
Quevedo will visit Mallorca for the first time
The latest phenomenon on the national scene, Quevedo will perform for the first time in Mallorca on 19 May. The most listened to national artist of 2022 has released big hits such as “Cayó la noche” to follow with the remix of Ed Sheeran’s ‘2step’. After a stint in the studio of Argentinian producer Bizarrap, Quevedo made history and created an anthem with ‘Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol.52’, better known as ‘Quédate’. The track made him the first Spanish artist to reach number one on the worldwide charts and positioned him among the 100 most listened to artists in the world. Quevedo debuted with ‘Donde quiero estar’, the most listened to album in 24 hours in Spain.
On Thursday 18 May, Ginebras, a young band that has caused a revolution on the Spanish pop-rock scene, will take to the stage.
Festival line-up
The Chemical Brothers will be their first live visit to the islands.

They will present their latest album, “Cable a Tierra”, for which they received three nominations for the Latin Grammy Awards. Meanwhile, South Korean DJ Peggy Gou, one of the most acclaimed DJs in the world, is once again taking pride of place on the line-up of the Mallorca Live Festival 2023.
