The former Galician International Music Festival is being revamped this year as the Via Stellae festival, with 43 concerts spread around 20 towns on the various Caminos: Santiago, Ribadeo, Foz, Mondoñedo, Vilalba, Guitiriz, Lugo, Sarria, Portomarín, Palas de Rei, Melide, Arzúa, Ferrol, A Coruña, Betanzos, Cee, Tui, Pontevedra, Allariz, Ourense. There's an emphasis on Mozart for his 250th birthday.
I can't find a website for the festival, or even a list of concerts, but the press report is at

I know I'm an old cynic, but I can't avoid the suspicion that this is something else that has little to do with the Camino and is simply being rebranded in an attempt to clamber on board the bandwagon.
