Louis Tomlinson today announces the return of his highly successful festival ‘Away From Home’ this year.

Following the huge success of the festival’s 2021 debut, the 2022 one day festival will be held at the stunning Marenostrum Fuengirola, Malaga, Spain hosting 17,000 fans on Saturday 27th August.

Conceived and curated by Louis himself, the Away From Home festival was first held in 2021 at the UK’s iconic Crystal Palace Bowl and witnessed an audience of over 6,000 people.

This year in Malaga the stellar line-up includes English Indie-rock band The Vaccines who over the past decade have established themselves as one of Britain’s biggest and most loved bands.

Madrid based Indie band Hinds also take the stage fresh from supporting The Strokes, along with Sun Room who bring their infectious energy following their support slots on Louis’ global tour. Exciting Northern British Alt-punk band Stone will be on the bill bringing their exciting sound to Spain for the first time. In addition, the line-up will feature special DJ sets from The Libertines’ very own Carl Barât.

Louis will be performing a full special headline set to close out the day.

Born in 2016, Marenostrum is quickly establishing itself as one of the most spectacular outdoor venues in Europe, with its proximity to the sea and view of Sohail Castle, offering the perfect location for The Away From Home Festival España 2022.
