Music like los waves

The Sudoeste Festival (Portuguese pronunciation: [suˈðwɛʃtɨ]), currently named MEO Sudoeste for sponsorship reasons, is a music festival that takes places annually since 1997, in August, in Odemira, in the southwest of Portugal. It is organized by live entertainment company Música no Coração and is currently sponsored by the Portuguese telecommunications company MEO.

The festival started as a rock festival. Over the years, it has featured a considerable variety of headliners, like Marylin Manson, Blur, Sonic Youth, The Cure, UB40, Massive Attack, Kraftwerk, Oasis, Daft Punk, Björk, Faith No More, Snoop Dogg and Kanye West. It had a stage dedicated to reggae music from 2005 to 2013. In the early 2010s, it gradually changed its musical focus to mainly hip-hop, mainstream pop and electronic dance music.
