Special Guest

The 17th edition of the L’Estartit Beatles Weekend festival will feature the participation of Pete Best, the original drummer of the Beatles. Pete Best, known as the man who set the beat for the band, was part of the group from 1960 to 1962. Born in India and raised in Liverpool, his mother owned the Casbah Club, where the Quarrymen, John Lennon’s first group before forming the Beatles, used to perform. Best joined Lennon’s original trio, along with George Harrison and Stuart Sutcliffe, and together they shaped the beginning of the legend.

Although Pete Best was replaced by Ringo Starr in 1962, his legacy in the history of the Beatles is undeniable. During the Beatles Weekend, the Pete Best Band will perform on the stage of Plaza del Molinet on Saturday, July 8th, offering attendees the opportunity to enjoy their musical talent and relive unforgettable moments from the Beatles era.
