I agree, I think it refers more to the marketing campaign and/or how are they going to reveal the line-up. Something spaceship related? Maybe a Rocketship shuttle countdown? I don't know... 

Of course, it's only marketing #PSAllStars

This is how they are describing the festival theme in Porto:

 

Quote

Setting off to discover #FestivaldeOutroMundo, this is how we face the journey to NOS Primavera Sound 2016. We depart from known land, with firm roots, to give wings to a festival that we want to be ever bolder. Bold in the details which make the difference, the difference that tells us that we must find #FestivaldeOutroMundo. We will carry on searching for an other-worldly line-up, the testimony to the timelessness of the great names that left their mark on iconic times and emerging projects ready to conquer their audience. It’s past, present and future in one single space, a complete plot which draws a continuous line that brings generations together. We won’t rest until we bring to life the site of another world, the place where music and nature complement each other, where each person’s comfort is privileged, to elevate to its maximum the pleasure of listening and being in music, within the unique context that is the festival. And all of this in a city ready to embrace a unique multiculturalism which promises to once again fill Porto on the 9th, 10th and 11th June 2016. We will travel as much as we have to, until we reach our goal. And when we finally land, we will set foot with the clear certainty that we are in #FestivaldeOutroMundo.

The latest tweet from NOS Alive would suggest they are going to drop the rest of their line up tomorrow. I'd have thought for marketing purposes the euro festivals would have avoided announcing on the same dates, unless it's being driven by the headliners.

But the line-up will be out by tomorrow. Field day and This Is Not a Love Song festival are revealing their line-up tomorrow and on Friday. These festivals share a lot of bands with PS; no way PS is not letting us know this year's line-up before them.

Could it be announced tonight? There's nothing out there pinning the announcement down to a specific date other than Gabi saying it's the same date as normal.

Just wondering because would they want it to get lost in the shuffle of the announcements of Field Day, TiNaLS and potentially NOS Alive as well?

On the other hand, they're not going to wait longer if we can already make the line-up when we're looking at other festivals. I think they'll want to beat the other festivals. There are four options left really:

1. Today, which I don't think will happen

2. Tomorrow, which is most likely if you'd ask me

3. Friday before Field Day, possible but least likely imo

4. Next week, possible

Field Day is announcing tomorrow rather than Friday.

Also, the Belgian Cactus Festival is announcing a name tomorrow, while hinting at Air. 

Oops my bad. Then it should be tomorrow before Field Day and Friday as options.

Anyway, something seems to be happening

EDIT: upvote Albert, this gif deserves it :D

Trying not to get my hopes up as everything I've heard has said Thursday but today would make sense with all the announcements from other festivals that are due tomorrow.

It's been Wednesday evening on the last two years but I think that was more because they were holding galas for the announcements.

Maybe the site is being updated with a countdown.

I can't get it to work for myself, but my brother is saying that the ticket prices have gone up to the full price now.

I believe it said that would happen on the day of the line up announcement?

They're at €183 according to Spanish Ticketmaster. That's the full price, isn't it?

I think so? I bought mine a while ago so haven't really been following the price changes, but when a mate looked earlier this month I'm sure he said it was €160ish.

Hopefully that means it's coming very soon!

That was until the 7th. Prices were raised after that, but I don't know how far

- 145€: From 19th June until the 4th November 2015

- 160€: From the 5th November 2015 until the 7th January 2016

- 175€: From the 8th January 2016 until the presentation of the line-up

- 185€: After the presentation of the line-up until 4th May 2016

- 195€: From 5th May 2016 until the start of the festival

It may be 175 + 8 for booking fees, so possibly hasn't changed after all.

hm, maybe the 183€ on ticketmaster are the 175€ price + fees/taxes/whatever?

I think he's probably just been thrown off by the addition of the booking fee.

If he's reading this, he should probably now be aware that he's in for an ass kicking next time I see him for getting my hopes up.

hahah, well maybe he just saw another source. Or Ticketmaster have corrected the 'mistake'. Anyway, it can't be long now
