The Portalblau Festival was born in summer 2008 in the village of L’Escala. Throughout all its editions, it has offered a wide range of high-quality cultural proposals and has counted with the participation of artists from all over the world. Music, dance, theater, and days of debate and reflection have been part of the festival's program since the beginning.
La Mar d'en Manassa and the Roman Forum of Empúries will be the stages that will host the 2020 edition of the Portalblau Festival. Scenarios of great historical and landscape richness.
The cultural program that we present, with a smaller format due to the current situation, maintains the conceptual axis that characterizes the Festival: the promotion of the values of the culture in the Mediterranean.

Programme
'Bàrbars' show with Jordina Biosca and David Garcia
Barbarities elevated to the umpteenth power. When the contents go straight to the soul and in return they pinch the mind. When the subtle tone of a verse unleashes storms and drowns the senses, everything that happens written in ink becomes one's own flesh, a mirror of oneself. Recited, narrated. Sense.
A la Llum del Dia: Poetic and musical encounter by the hand of Kavafis
Participants: Josep Tero, Carme Callol, Jaume Comas and Eusebi Ayensa.

GEMMA HUMET – “Petit Univers”
Gemma Humet is one of the voices with the most light and personality on the current Catalan scene. One of the artists who has most clearly permeated her work with the essence of the author's song. Her new album will be released in 2021 and will have a renewed sound that mixes the rhythm box and the synthesizers with the melodies of Mediterranean airs and the warm voice of Gemma.
Maria Jaume - Presenting her first album
Acoustic folk and independent pop in its most intimate sense, are the hallmarks of Maria Jaume, a young Mallorcan singer-songwriter who presents herself with a handful of close and sincere songs, and with the essence of the Mediterranean. Winner of the last edition of the Sona 9 competition, she is currently preparing her first album.
ALESSIO ARENA AND GIANCARLO ARENA - Presentation of his new album Dummèneca
The two singing brothers mix their repertoires born between Italy and Catalonia, including family mythologies and stories of a deeply transcultural and Mediterranean childhood. With a stamp of delicacy and originality, Alessio Arena and Giancarlo Arena offer us original pieces and reinterpretations of "author's word music".
LAS MIGAS - Presenting their latest album Cuatro
BuyLas Migas is the quartet formed by Carolina Fernández (vocals), Marta Robles (guitar), Alicia Grillo (guitar) and Roser Loscos (violin). They stand out for being different and similar at the same time and the fusion of cultures so wonderful that they create when they are together. This year they are celebrating their 15th anniversary by presenting their latest album Cuatro.
Mou el cos in a special format
BuyDàmaris Gelabert presents a varied proposal ranging from Mediterranean music to country, rock, rumba and bossa nova. With a repertoire that becomes an optimistic cry for life close to nature, learning to enjoy the moments and gifts it offers us.
ELS AMICS DE LES ARTS – Els dies més dolços
Els Amics de les Arts will present Els dies més dolços. A repertoire that will sound like they presented it on their YouTube channel during confinement. This opportunity, totally circumstantial, gives the public the opportunity to experience a unique show that will remind us of the beginnings of the band and where their most beloved songs will be revisited.
