The performances will take place in the sky cocktail bar Eclipse, located on the 26th floor and from which you can enjoy a 360 degree view of the city. Also in the WET Deck pool, with views to the Mediterranean, the W Lounge or the Frequency Stage.
The WET Deck will be one of the locations of the festival.
“We wanted to move our Whatever/Whenever® mentality with which we take care of our guests and clients to the recording artists through concepts such as the recording studios in our W SOUND SUITES and the innumerable musical performances in the W Living Rooms. Everything to bring people closer, the music they love, regardless of the fact of being in a hotel. Now, we launch our innovative series of WAKE UP CALL festivals around the world, bursting, once again, into the music scene in a unique way: hosting our own festival in a hotel, something uniquely possible at W Hotels” highlights Anthony Ingham, Global Leader of W Hotels Worldwide.
Music and more
But there is not only music in this festival. The W Hotel in Barcelona will entertain the event with a multitude of activities.

The funniest and most unusual option? The temporary tattoos of the Catalonian firm Geometric Vibes.
In addition, the hotel mixologists experts have created a cocktail menu for the festival. The perfect option to accompany the special menus that will be served during the event.
