The open secret is already a reality: Oques Grasses says goodbye to the stage. The Catalan band, one of the most beloved and successful of the Catalan music scene, has officially announced its last concert, which will take place on October 10, 2026 at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Barcelona.
The news, confirmed through an emotional video posted on Instagram, has generated a huge reaction among their followers. In the images, the seven members of the group appear running around the track of the Olympic Stadium (the same stage that hosted the 1992 Olympic Games) with their naked torso, while a sign reviews the passage of time: “2012 – 2026”, the beginning and the end of a musical history that has marked an entire generation.
A farewell full of emotion and gratitude
In the message accompanying the video, Oques Grasses addresses his fans directly with words of gratitude and nostalgia. “To you, who have always been there, we come to tell you that this is coming to an end. Beautiful things sometimes have to end to remember them forever more like this,” begins the text.
The group, led by Josep Montero, reviews their beginnings and the moments that have defined their career: “We will never forget when it all started and we toured endlessly, when we first heard your screams before going on stage, your voices singing these songs that have changed our lives”.

The message continues with an emotionally charged tone: “There are not enough words to thank you for the love you have given us. Thank you for being there, thank you for being part of Oques Grasses.”
And he concludes with a sentence that sums up the essence of the group: “These 14 years will remain forever. There have been very good moments and harder moments, but we know it has been worth it. For love it began and for love it ends.”
When tickets will be on sale for Oques Grasses’ farewell concert?
The tickets for the farewell concert will go on sale on Wednesday, November 12 at 3:00 p.m. through the group’s official channels. The event is expected to be a sold out in a matter of hoursconsidering the huge fan base that Oques Grasses has accumulated over the course of their career.
In fact, if the forecasts are fulfilled and the more than 50,000 seats available are sold out, the concert will become the largest recital offered by a band that sings entirely in Catalan at the Olympic Stadium.
A milestone for Catalan music
The farewell of Oques Grasses will not only mark the end of a stage, but also a historic milestone for music in Catalan. In recent years, the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys has established itself as one of the most important venues in the country, hosting performances by renowned artists such as
To find a similar precedent (a massive concert by a group that sings exclusively in Catalan) you have to go back to October 6, 1990, when Sopa de Cabra performed in the same stadium along with El Último de la Fila and Tina Turner.
Further back in time, in 1985, the singer-songwriter Lluís Llach filled the Camp Nou with more than 100,000 people, a figure that still stands as the all-time record for attendance at a concert by an artist in Catalan.
A successful track record
Since its formation in Roda de Ter (Barcelona) in 2012, Oques Grasses has established itself as one of the most influential and beloved bands in contemporary Catalan music. With their unmistakable style, which mixes pop, reggae and soul with lyrics full of optimism, irony and sensitivity, the group has been able to connect with audiences of all ages.
Throughout their career, they have released six studio albums and accumulated numerous hits such as Sta guai per ke?, In the night, Petar-ho or La gent que estimo. This last song became an anthem for their followers and was performed by Josep Montero with Aitana in July 2024 during the artist’s concert at the Olympic Stadium, unknowingly anticipating her future farewell to the same stage.
Records and moments to remember
It will not be the first time that Oques Grasses set a record in Montjuïc. In January 2023, the band managed to fill the Palau Sant Jordi with 18,400 attendees, the highest official capacity figure ever recorded in the venue’s history. This achievement confirmed their status as one of the most powerful groups in the Catalan music scene.
With its final concert at the Estadi Olímpic, the band intends to close the circle: to say goodbye in a big way, on the same stage where so many international figures have left their mark, but from a deeply local and emotional point of view.
