Chile’s Festival Fauna Primavera has long provided a necessary middle ground between the massive scale of Lollapalooza Chile and the indie vibes of Festival Neutral. The sixth installment of Fauna Primavera, scheduled for Saturday, November 12 in Santiago, is packed with seminal foreign acts and buzzy newcomers all sharing a bill for a day of epic fun in the spring sun. International headliners include the likes of Primal Scream, Courtney Barnett, and avant-garde Irish singer Róisín Murphy, as well as Latino talent in the form of Chilean rocker Camila Moreno, local production duo Roman & Castro, and Colombian rave powerhouse Mitú.

The lineup has been broken up into two separate events. First, a Day festival at Espacio Centenario in Santiago’s Vitacura district will cater to a more rock-oriented crowd. In the evening, a Night festival at Espacio Riesco in Las Condes will spotlight electronic music. Fauna Primavera’s overall lineup is represents the alternative-leaning talent organizers tend to favor, managing to also include young experimental acts like Los Barbara Blade, Concepcion’s Lia Nadja, and local DJ Andrea Paz.
