A night of rumba, pop and rock that united generations under Marbella’s stars
Starlite Occident 2025 experienced a truly unique evening with the return of the Gipsy Kings ft. Nicolas Reyes and the debut of Walls on the Sessions stage. Two different worlds, united by one language: the power of live music.
With over 25 million albums sold and a career spanning the five continents, the Gipsy Kings proved why they remain a global phenomenon. Led by the unmistakable voice of Nicolas Reyes, they delivered a setlist filled with timeless classics that ignited the audience from the very first chords. “Djobi Djoba”, “A tu vera”, “Allegria” and “Un amor” were sung passionately, while the band shone with fresh instrumental arrangements. The finale with “Bamboleo” and “Volare” turned into a joyful celebration that had the entire quarry on its feet.
After the classics, it was time to look at the present with Walls, one of the most promising voices in Spain’s new music scene. The artist from Murcia, who began in freestyle battles, has crafted a personal style blending punk, pop and rock with lyrics reflecting the emotions, struggles and hopes of his generation. His live performance, enhanced by a full band and striking visuals, was a true statement of intent: “Quédate, mi corazón”, “En los huesos”, “Malavida”, “Haz lo que quieras conmigo” and “La Sole” paved the way for an explosive finale with “Nápoles”, “Perro callejero” and “Mi nena”, all sung in unison by an electrified crowd.
Among the attendees were Dr. Marián Rojas, supermodel Valeria Mazza and actress Cayetana Guillén Cuervo, who enjoyed this unforgettable night under the stars.
Starlite Occident 2025 reaffirms its status as the world’s leading boutique festival, bridging generations, styles and emotions in a one-of-a-kind setting.
