Argentine indie pop duo El Zar will perform in Asunción on 15 February 2026 as part of the Heineken Sessions. The free, all-day event will take place at La Cuadrita, bringing together music, culture, and a relaxed summer atmosphere. Running from 11:00 to 23:00, the gathering promises live performances, social spaces, and an acoustic set from one of Argentina’s most popular indie acts.
A special acoustic experience in La Cuadrita
This edition of Heineken Sessions will transform La Cuadrita in Recoleta neighbourhood into a cultural meeting point for music lovers. The programme will feature multiple artists throughout the day, creating a festival-like environment in an urban setting. Alongside El Zar, the lineup includes Mr. X, Mocasinos, and Faro, offering a mix of sounds and styles.
The event is designed as a full-day experience rather than a traditional concert. Visitors will be able to move between spaces, enjoy live performances, and connect with the local creative scene. Entry will be free, encouraging community participation. El Zar’s set is expected to be one of the highlights of the day. Their acoustic format promises a closer, more intimate performance, allowing fans to experience their music differently.
El Zar: the duo’s connection with regional audiences
Formed by Pablo Giménez and Facundo Castaño Montoya, El Zar has become a key name in the new Argentine indie pop scene. Over the years, they have built a loyal following across Latin America through emotional lyrics and polished production. Their songs often explore relationships, nostalgia, and personal growth, themes that resonate strongly with younger listeners. Fans can expect to enjoy the acoustic versions of songs “La declaración” (The statement) and “El momento perfecto” (The perfect moment).
Live performances have played an important role in their rise. Having performed previously in Paraguay during Rock al Puerto and other occasions, the duo is no stranger to Paraguay. The duo is known for connecting easily with audiences, creating shows that feel both energetic and personal.
Summer energy at Heineken Sessions
Events like these continue to strengthen Asunción’s live music landscape. International artists are visiting the city more frequently, helping to create a more dynamic cultural scene. These gatherings also support local venues and bring people together through shared experiences.
With a full day of music planned at La Cuadrita, anticipation is already building. El Zar’s performance is expected to draw both long-time fans and curious newcomers. For many, the event will be a chance to enjoy live music in a relaxed setting and celebrate the growing connection between Paraguay and the regional indie scene.
