ECOS is a festival made possible by the support of numerous institutions and companies. It stands as an example of a public-private partnership that has resulted in a cultural and tourism product bringing the name of the Region of Murcia and the “Sierra Espuña Territory” to many corners of Europe.
The organisers are committed to the festival’s sustainable growth, aligned with the resources pledged by the organising entities and the continuation of central and regional government support through cultural industry funding programmes.
The Ministry of Culture, through the National Institute of Performing Arts and Music (INAEM), has renewed its support for the festival, increasing its funding compared to previous years and recognising ECOS as an event that champions cultural decentralisation and territorial uniqueness. However, the Government of the Region of Murcia has yet to confirm its support for the 2025 edition and, in the last edition, reduced its contribution by more than 60% compared to 2023.
This reduction in financial resources has caused delays in organising the event, leading to its postponement until November. Even so, work continues with all partners to secure stable and sufficient resources to guarantee the festival’s future.
Corporate sponsorship from companies such as El Pozo, Iberchem, and Autocares Espuña has also been essential for the festival’s consolidation. Thanks to this support, albeit with some adjustments, the ECOS Festival will remain committed to offering high-quality, sustainable tourism in the “Sierra Espuña Territory,” with innovative programming rooted in the area’s identity and natural heritage, while also stimulating the local economy.
We want to build a community of people who love early music and nature around the Sierra Espuña area.
We’re looking for friends, collaborators, volunteers, micro-patrons, artists, artisans, and more, to receive early information, participate in exclusive events, and get personalized offers.
The Regenerative Culture ECOS project (Early Music Project Association) has received funding through the “Competitive Grants for Expanding and Diversifying Cultural Offerings in Non-Urban Areas, from the Recovery, Transformation, and Resilience Plan (PRTR)” provided by the Institute of Cultural Industries and Arts of the Region of Murcia.

This plan has helped boost various activities aimed at stimulating cultural dynamism in rural areas, focusing on sustainability, diversity, modernization, internationalization of the Region of Murcia’s brand, and addressing demographic challenges.
ECOS is much more than a festival: it’s a gathering of sensations and sounds that, set against a stunning natural and historical backdrop, becomes a unique experience.
