Colleiteiros Son Festival

Colleiteiros Son Festival: Music, Wine, and Tradition in the Heart of Ribeiro

The Colleiteiros Son Festival was born in the summer as a tribute to the land, the people, and the wines that make Ribeiro a vibrant and diverse region. Organized by the Galician Association of Artisanal Viticulture, the festival took place on Fridays and Saturdays in July and August, from 9:00 PM, in wineries and vineyards of local colleiteiros.

This first edition aimed to bring the public closer to limited-production wines, crafted with respect for the land and native grape varieties, and to offer a direct experience with the colleiteiros. At each event, visitors could talk with the producers, taste unique wines, and enjoy local music and gastronomy in a relaxed, sunset setting, among vines and scenic landscapes.

The festival combined live music with tasting of local products, creating authentic encounters that showcased Ribeiro’s artisanal and cultural character. Each winery became, for one night, a small stage where wine, music, and friendship came together.

A Meeting with the Soul of Ribeiro

The Colleiteiros Son Festival is more than a series of concerts: it is a journey through the valleys of Ribeiro, a way to discover the region through wine and music. Every glass tells a story, every song accompanies a memory.

The colleiteiros of Ribeiro invite locals and visitors to keep celebrating life among the vineyards, recognizing in the hands that work the land the true soul of a heritage that remains alive, authentic, and proudly Galician.
