Cuban music took center stage, tempered by the presence of artists from the United States, Spain and Colombia, whose presence offered an opportunity to enjoy and, in many cases, discover their art, but also to measure the quality standards between the national and international.<\/p>\n<p>Josone took on several challenges this year: expanding to seven days of performances; giving greater presence to urban music, specifically to \u201creparto\u201d; changing companies and, for the first time, being accompanied and supported by the National Center of Popular Music.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, other obstacles always arise along the way of such a major event, from the small ones that only its production team (in the masterful hands of Four Wives) can handle and resolve, to the less manageable ones, such as the rain that wreaked havoc three times this week.<\/p>\n<p>It was precisely the inclemency of the weather that created the most unforgettable night of the Festival. Last Friday, more than seven hours of rain made it seem like the planned activities wouldn\u2019t be possible.<\/p>\n<p>But the audience had the last word and, with no fear of the water, mud not being a problem, and with all the patience and discipline that is sometimes unthinkable, especially for such a young audience, more than 3,000 people made it possible for three of the five planned concerts to take place, providing the unforgettable experience of watching the sunrise amidst the euphoria of music.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_327896\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-327896\" style=\"width: 1140px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-327896\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1140\" height=\"815\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1-1024x732.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1-120x86.jpg 120w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1-350x250.jpg 350w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Wampi-Josone-1-1-750x536.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1140px) 100vw, 1140px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-327896\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Josone dawned this Saturday with a spectacular Wampi concert that the audience eagerly awaited despite the rain. Photo: Courtesy of the Varadero Josone Festival.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI thought the weather would affect everything, but it was quite the opposite. Everything was super special. I\u2019m very happy with the opportunity to be in Josone for the second time and to have the love and support of an audience that waited until 5 a.m., and we saw the sunrise Josone. But we had a good time, and that\u2019s what counts,\u201d said Wampi, who closed the day\u2019s performances, preceded by Formell y Los Van Van and Spanish singer Big Lois.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the musical excellence enjoyed on stage with the quality of the cast carefully chosen each year by Isaac Delgado and his team, the audience is the fundamental star of the Varadero Josone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s most significant is how the audience at this Festival connects with everything that happens on stage. There\u2019s no thermometer or scale where you can say that this might be more appealing than that, because the audience has a knack for absorbing everything the stage offers. Even when we\u2019re just starting out, there might not be enough people, but when you say the first \u2018good night,\u2019 they start appearing from all over, from all over the park, and suddenly there\u2019s an atmosphere where the energy of two hundred people is equal to, but multiplied by, the energy of the three or four thousand people who fill the park,\u201d says Edith Massola, the Festival\u2019s artistic director, who, along with Marlon Piju\u00e1n and Barbaro Mar\u00edn, took over the stage presentation each night this year.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_327897\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-327897\" style=\"width: 1140px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-327897\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1140\" height=\"815\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1-1024x732.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1-120x86.jpg 120w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1-350x250.jpg 350w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Escenario-y-publico-Josone-2025-1-1-750x536.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1140px) 100vw, 1140px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-327897\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Varadero Josone Festival concluded its fifth edition this Sunday. Photo: Courtesy of the Varadero Josone Festival.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For its closing, the Festival featured a lineup that explored many musical directions. Rumba by Mu\u00f1equitos de Matanzas opened the evening, followed by Colombian salsa by the Manyoma Brothers, one of the pioneering groups in the development of the genre in that country, now in its second generation from a family dedicated to music.<\/p>\n<p>The closing triad featured the voice, energy and power of rapper Telmary, the Cuban timba of Alexander Abreu and Havana D\u2019Primera, and urban music with Charly and Johayron.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fusion with youth is the most important thing about this Festival, being able to give the opportunity to young people, who have earned it,\u201d said Alexander Abreu in an exclusive for OnCuba<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DOEQtP4Ckbu\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> an exclusive for OnCuba<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When we asked Johayron how he would define this event, he called it an \u201copportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot everyone has the best judgment or opinion about the urban genre, so I think our participation is super important. At the same time, being able to share with other genres allows us to gain audiences of other ages who enjoy timba and rumba, and who can listen to what we do here, and I think they might also enjoy it,\u201d says the singer.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_327899\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-327899\" style=\"width: 1140px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-327899\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1140\" height=\"815\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1-1024x732.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1-120x86.jpg 120w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1-350x250.jpg 350w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Charly-y-Johayron-Josone-1-750x536.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1140px) 100vw, 1140px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-327899\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Charly &amp; Johayron, one of the most popular duos in the lineup, performed at the final concert of Josone 2025.
