SXSW 2020 brings together around 15,000 professionals and hosts 2,000 concerts during the week of the festival.
In recent editions, SXSW is no longer exclusively working with Pop-Rock proposals and it is now hosting other music genres that incorporate artistic innovations and originality.

Spain provides original talent that, together with gastronomy, turns the participation of Sounds from Spain into a showcase of creativity and excellence of our music industry.
