Spanish alternative rock band Arde Bogotá proudly represented their hometown of Cartagena with the release of the first single from their long-awaited third album, and they have chosen none other than the Costa Calida municipality as a location to film the music video. The filming of the video was created in collaboration with the Cartagena City Council’s Film Office, and was directed by acclaimed creative director from Barcelona, Guillermo Aliaga.
Putting an important Cartagena heritage hotspot in the spotlight
The main location of the shoot was the old Navy optics workshop located in Los Barreros, an industrial building that belongs to the City Council and forms part of Cartagena’s architectural heritage. The building is a multi-storey tower that was previously used for submarine periscope testing, and is now one of the most recognisable industrial spaces in the urban landscape of the city. It is considered an important part of Cartagena’s landscape, as well as a significant heritage landmark for the city and for its people, including the members of Arde Bogotá.
The choice to film in this location reflects the band’s commitment to their Cartagena identity, going back to their roots not only through their music, but through their visual imagery as well.
Who are Arde Bogotá? A hometown rock band with an international audience
The band members of Arde Bogotá, Antonio García, Dani Sánchez, Pepe Esteban, and José Ángel Mercader, represent Cartagena with pride with a production that will reach all parts of Spain and beyond.
Arde Bogotá is a popular rock band, having headlined the Cartagena Suena Festival 2025 and drawing nearly 40,000 people to the city’s El Batel Auditorium over two exciting days of concerts. Their first two albums, La noche and Cowboys de la A3 saw great success on both a national and international scale. The first release of their new album, Instrucciones, showcases the band’s powerful rock side, including wild guitar solos and catchy choruses.
The Costa Calida: The filming location of choice for major audiovisual works
This is far from the only major audiovisual work being filmed on the Costa Calida this year. The Region of Murcia is quickly becoming the filming location of choice for many audiovisual productions. Recently, it was announced that five Murcian municipalities will host a new filming of the Movistar Plus+ original series, “Todo lo necesario” (“All That’s Necessary”), in collaboration with Lastor Media. The series will have three episodes and is a thriller inspired by the negotiations for the release of three Spanish aid workers kidnapped on the border between Mali and Mauritania by Al Qaeda in 2009.
The Region of Murcia is a hotspot not only for tourists and visitors hoping to enjoy some of the best beaches in Spain, it is also the location of choice for film crews for short films, feature-length films, series, and of course, music videos.
