The Miravet Castle will be the stage for the second edition of the Riu de Veus festival on June 27th, an event celebrating Catalan linguistic diversity through music.

The Riu de Veus festival returns to Miravet Castle this year on Saturday, June 27th, offering a night of music and heritage that highlights the linguistic richness of Catalan and the sounds of the Terres de l'Ebre.
The initiative, promoted by the Catalan Agency for Cultural Heritage and the Miravet City Council, will feature three prominent artists: David Carabé (leader of Mishima), musician Xarim Aresté, and singer Meritxell Gené. Together, they will present a concert created exclusively for the occasion, under the artistic direction of Miravet musician Èric Vinaixa.
The performers will showcase representative songs from their repertoires with a musical ensemble composed entirely of musicians from the Terres de l'Ebre. The format will blend individual performances with shared moments, creating a unique evening. "It's a unique concert that can only be seen here," stated Vinaixa, emphasizing the festival's aim to showcase the region's diverse accents.
The event will commence at 9:30 PM at the castle, with a limited capacity of 250 people. A bus service will be provided to facilitate access, with departures at 8:00 PM and return at 12:00 AM.
Tickets are already available for 10 euros in advance through the activity's website and at the castle's visitor information point. On the day of the concert, the price will be 12 euros.
Carme Bergés, head of the Monuments and Sites Area at the Catalan Agency for Cultural Heritage, highlighted that the second edition maintains "the commitment to artistic quality and to making the accents and dialectal variants of our language dialogue with the musical sounds of the Terres de l'Ebre".
The Miravet Castle, one of the most significant examples of Templar architecture in Europe, is a key monument in the Terres de l'Ebre. Its fortified structure, originally built by the Muslims and later expanded by the Templars, preserves much of its history.
Recently, the castle has updated its museographic offerings, incorporating new audiovisual resources and immersive experiences to delve deeper into the history of the site.
