As the Costa Blanca welcomes autumn, the local live music calendar is heating up with “Rocktober,” bringing a heavy dose of high-octane energy to venues across the region. At the centre of the buzz is Dead Francos, the international punk-rocking trio renowned for their raw, high-powered performances and relentless, passionate stage presence.
Dead Francos’ ‘Rocktober’ brings live music back with a bang
On Sunday, October 11, Dead Francos will take over The Soul Bar in Benidorm for a rare early afternoon session starting at 2:00pm. Taking over the daytime slot, the trio will perform an intimate and explosive matinee gig. As the show from the previous day has already sold out, the room is expected to be packed to the brim: a close-quarters setup filled with true rock fans and a tight-knit community.

Comprising Tom, Dougie, and Jarno, this international power trio delivers a 100 per cent live show driven by fast-paced guitar riffs, thumping basslines, and chaotic charisma. For local pub-goers and devoted rock enthusiasts, Sunday’s gig will offer a thrilling opportunity to catch the trio up close, turning standard weekend afternoon entertainment completely on its head.
How to rock out in October at The Soul Bar Benidorm
With the Saturday night show completely booked, Sunday at The Soul Bar stands as the premier destination for anyone seeking an authentic punk rock experience over the weekend. Concertgoers are strongly advised to arrive early, grab a cold drink, and secure a spot before the venue reaches maximum capacity. Diehard fans of Dead Francos can also book their spots by contacting The Soul Bar directly.
Following their Benidorm stops, Dead Francos will continue their Rocktober tour, including a show on October 16 in San Pedro del Pinatar, and culminating in a spooky Halloween show on Saturday, October 31 at the Sea View Cafe Bar in Playa Flamenca, starting at 8:00pm.
The end of summer does not mean the end of live music and fun, and Dead Francos are rocking Benidorm this October to ensure no one forgets it.
