Puwerty comes back to La Casa for Christmas. The second encounter with young culture takes place on 19 December with a full day’s programme of music and celebration.

We say goodbye to 2020 by ending the fourth edition of Puwerty in style. If ever there was a time to demonstrate the power of puberty, it has to be now. From morning until night, La Casa Encendida will turn the spotlight on creative talents under age 26.

To start the day rolling, we have the sixties rhythms of the band Adiós Amores, followed by the presentation of the Bonus Track project, winner of the Puwerty 2020 Inbox competition.

The afternoon programme includes two workshops: the Desmusea collective explores a new form of knowledge in What Good Are Songs?, while Ana CSC of @proyectoGalaxxia shows us how to make super-subversive stickers. Dance is represented with the first-ever kiki ball held at La Casa Encendida, courtesy of thekiki.exe, the most free and easy version of the ballroom scene. Kiki is more than a competition, more than a performance. The kiki scene is a culture that silences the hegemonic stereotypes with voguing.

The night session begins with the Martian diva of new European dark pop, Vigo performer Sila Lua, and Puwerty 2020 ends by embracing the futuristic PC Music of Rakky Ripper and Eurosanto and hoping we can keep on dancing in 2021.

The three concerts and the kiki ball will also be live streamed on La Casa Encendida’s YouTube channel.

This fourth edition of Puwerty is curated by Ángel Aranda and María del Río and supported by the Creative Youth Production Grants programme at the Instituto de la Juventud (INJUVE) to visibilise the work of young artists in different fields of contemporary creativity.
