For Those Who Listen To Everything: Audición Fest Debuts In Asunción

A new music festival is set to debut in Asunción, bringing together different artists in a celebration of musical diversity. Audición Fest will hold its first edition on 12 September 2026 at Casa Argentina, offering audiences a programme that crosses genres, generations, and artistic styles. Created for listeners who enjoy discovering music beyond traditional labels, the festival aims to create a space where established and emerging artists can share the same stage.

Artists sharing one stage

The inaugural edition will be headlined by Argentine artists known for pushing the boundaries of contemporary music in Latin America. Juana Molina is widely regarded as one of the region’s most influential alternative musicians. Her work blends folk, electronic music, art pop, and experimental sounds, earning international acclaim and a devoted following around the world. Joining her is Taichu, one of the most distinctive voices of Argentina’s new generation of artists. Known for combining trap, electronic music, pop, and performance art, she arrives in Paraguay during a particularly successful period in her career.

The festival will also showcase a diverse selection of Paraguayan talent. The line-up includes Camigo, a Paraguayan singer-songwriter based in Buenos Aires whose music explores alternative pop and Latin American R&B. Urban artist Oudi, who has built a strong following within Paraguay’s independent scene, will also perform.

Other acts include Radio Bolivia, led by Lucas We, which will bring tropical rhythms to the event. Audiences will also be able to enjoy the contemporary jazz and folk fusion of Joaju Cuarteto. Additionally, the energetic performance of Ripe Banana Skins, one of Paraguay’s most recognised independent bands, with more than two decades of musical history.

A festival built around musical curiosity

Audición Fest is the latest project from Buenos Oídos. The cultural platform was founded by Vidal Delgado to promote music without prejudice or genre restrictions. After years of attending major festivals around the world and building a community of passionate listeners, Vidal is now launching its own event in Paraguay.

According to the organisers, the festival seeks to encourage discovery and connection by bringing together artists from different musical backgrounds. The programme combines emerging voices with established names, creating opportunities for audiences to explore new sounds and perspectives. The event is produced by Rocksi Music and is expected to become a new addition to Asunción’s growing cultural calendar. General admission tickets are available through Ticketea for ₲150,000 (approximately US$24), plus service charges. More information and updates can be found on the festival’s official social media channels.
