Bogotá’s Kaputt Club Launches Kaputt Festival Futuro for 2026

Kaputt Club in Bogotá is expanding from nightlife into festival programming with the announcement of its inaugural Kaputt Festival Futuro. The new event is set to take place April 24–25 at the Proyecto Kinder complex in Chapinero, marking a significant step for the club as it brings together performances and educational programming under a dedicated festival banner.

According to the announcement, Kaputt Festival Futuro will feature more than 80 acts across the two days. The program goes beyond performances, also including panels, workshops, listening sessions, and film screenings.

This kind of hybrid format reflects a wider development in electronic music culture, where festivals increasingly function as community platforms rather than only concert-style lineups. Panels and workshops can provide space for industry discussion, artist development, and scene-building, while listening sessions and screenings broaden the focus to music appreciation and the cultural context surrounding electronic genres.

Hosting the event at Proyecto Kinder in Chapinero places the festival within one of Bogotá’s best-known nightlife districts. Festival-style takeovers of multi-room or complex venues are a common approach for city-based events, allowing organizers to program different styles simultaneously and create varied environments—from high-intensity dance floors to spaces designed for conversation, learning, and film.

An 80-plus act lineup suggests a packed schedule likely spread across multiple stages or rooms, a format frequently seen in club-led festivals where breadth and discovery are central to the experience. Rather than centering on a small number of headliners, these events often emphasize the depth of local and regional scenes, giving attendees a chance to see many DJs and live acts in a condensed timeframe.

Kaputt’s move into festival territory also illustrates how clubs can leverage their booking identities and community ties to create larger cultural events. Clubs are often year-round hubs for electronic music—supporting touring artists, local residents, and promoters—and a festival can amplify that role by drawing wider attention and creating structured moments for exchange through talks and workshops.

With dates confirmed for April 24–25 and a program that combines performances with education and film, Kaputt Festival Futuro positions itself as a new addition to Bogotá’s electronic calendar, centered at Proyecto Kinder in Chapinero and built around a large, multi-format roster.
