In 2010 when the first edition of the music festival was held, the city was in the midst of an unprecedented drug war, thus resulting in a turning point for the local scene, a cultural shift. The first edition of Festival NRMAL began as a space for music and contemporary art, under a curatorship that reflected a combination of well-known projects from the independent scene with emerging proposals on the way to becoming the next big thing.

From early beginnings, NRMAL has been more than a festival, it is a community that transcends borders and dogmas, that seeks new ways to feel and connect, and is proud to have music as a catalyst for diversity.

The art line up was made up of key collaborators:

- Nuria Mora

- MANO4814

- SIXE

- ELTONO

- Los Contratistas: Fidencio, Huizar, Screw

- Pablo Moreno (PM!)

- Carlos Olvera

- Colectivo Zezontle: Blast, Dose, Sanez

- Project Projections
