Viña Rock 2011's artist roster included artists such as Rosendo, Raimundo Amador, Habeas Corpus and Los Delincuentes and uncooperative weather did not stop more than 30,000 music fans from attending the Festival's upbeat three days. D.A.S. Aero Series 2 line array systems provided the sound for two of these stages, the Metalika and the Babilonia, which stood up to the weather brilliantly.
May's SOS 4.8 festival saw some 80,000 music revellers taking in performances by artists like Suede, Patti Smith, Lori Meyers, Vetusta Morla and These New Puritans. D.A.S. systems were found at the large Jägermeister stage, the Modo Sonoro Auditorium, and elsewhere around the fairgrounds. D.A.S. Audio and local company J. Ramírez Sonido joined forces to install the Aero sound systems at both the Jägermeister and SOS Club by Ron Barceló stages and in the Auditorium.
One of the most popular festivals in Europe, more than 150,000 fans descended on the 17th Benicàssim International Festival (FIB) to watch their favourite bands on the four different stages. This year, the FIB Club Stage was the showcase stage for the wide spectrum of music options at the festival, with a particular emphasis on prominent pop and electro artists and groups. D.A.S. Aero Series 2 systems provided the sound for the acts playing on this stage, which included Anna Calvi, Dorian, The Undertones, O Emperor and Zombie Zombie, to mention just a few.
