+ You Can't Win, Charlie Brown

Sounds alright, but I wonder whether there are some international acts in store for us...

It would be amazing ! I notice that Gogol Bordello have a hole in their calendar on 7th July. It would be ace !

I´m actually going by myself  for the two first days, has anyone else in here ever done that?

Last year we had a merging between the couchsurfing and the camp unknown group. I went by myself but met some very nice people

I need more loud rock. Only foo fighters and Royal Blood imo... 20 indie bands it's enought to get bored and go to sleep early

Check out The Cult mate  Benjamin Booker plays rock'n'roll too. 

So according to the line-up stage by stage on the website, I guess there's another name coming for Palco NOS stage on 8th July, and another name for Palco Heineken stage on 7th July, isn't it ?!

What about You Me At Six ? They wanted to come back this year : https://canoticias.pt/entretenimento/you-me-at-six-anunciam-presenca-no-nos-alive-17/

I think The cult it's more classic rock and Benjamin Booker it's rock & roll.

I really want something like Biffy Clyro (they 're going to repeat at FIB Festival this year), Frank Carter, Lonely the brave antd You met at six as well

[neontiger8]

I'd be happy with any new name at the moment. It's been quiet lately...

[Incpdc]

I'm worried about it... Hope not another portuguese band for palco nos or heineken (with all my respects), need something top.

This is Sold Out according to their Instagram.

Good, hope it will encourage them to announce some of the final acts....time for some heavy rock bands 

[Incpdc]

I think their answer for people like us who want Loud rock is:

A special ticket for Foo fighters at Mad Cool and next day Nos alive

Well done guys, well done...

I don't know much about what's going on, but what's up with that band competition they're having? Is it anual that a new Portugese band gets to play the festival if they win that competition and when and where are they placing that band? I'm guessing that band will open the Heineken on the 6th but idk.. 

Amount of names to be expected and guesses:

July 6th:

Heineken (1): a Portugese band?

July 7th:

Heineken (1): Foster The People? The Jesus & Mary Chain? Solange? Jake Bugg? G-Eazy? idk, something stronger than Warpaint

July 8th:

NOS (1): a strong dance act to close the fest, Royksopp? Soulwax? Moderat? MIA?

[arcuse]

Announced for the EDP Fado Café; Miguel Araújo, Mário Pacheco, Carminho, Janeiro, Tasca Do Cisco and every day a Blues 'n Swing  

Guess that'll be the full line up for that stage, no?

I want to say here that last night's Eurovision winner Salvador Sobral is awesome !! I usually watch Eurovision for fun (Epic Sax Guy and WTF bands), but I think this is the first time I seriously love an artist ! I looked at his calendar, he plays in Lisboa on 2nd July but he has nothing on 7th July. Is there a chance to see him at NOS Alive ?? Or his sister Luisa Sobral ? 

I wish I could see other powerful Portuguese artists this year at NOS Alive ! Very satisfied with Tiago Bettencourt. Do you recommend some artists ?

I honestly want him to see aswell, he made such an awesome performance last night with his breakable and emotional song. I would loveee to see him at NOS!

Do we think there's anything left to come or is this it now?

[neontiger8]

I'm hoping they are not announcing a few decent acts so they can lead the announcement with the full line-up. However, my feeling says this is it....

[Steve O.]

Bought four 3 days tickets but one of our group cannot attend. So one ticket available at cost. It would be a cash for paper ticket exchange in Lisbon as I am traveling from Oslo. Let me know if you are interested.

They have not announced any acts for the clubbing stage. So there is that.

[davidthefly]

Seems to be have quiet for too long , did we not have stage times at this point last year?

[duhud14]

looking to buy (1) 3-day pass to NOS Alive. e-ticket preferred, but hard ticket transfer also possible.  

[Richard & Julie]

It's our first festival outside the UK.

Was interested to know from others who have been to NOS Alive what time of day does the music start.  I've heard it's a lot later than what you'd expect in the UK.  Was thinking of doing a bit sightseeing & chilling early in the day then off to the festival.

Kind of want to know what to expect and be prepared!  Any guidance appreciated.

Cheers

Festival goes from 5pm till 4 am I think so yes enough time to explore a bit of the city or go to the beach etc

[neontiger8]

Is NOS Alive always late with announcing the acts and schedule? With just 3 weeks to go it seems there is so much to be announced yet...

[frankburns]

Last year the timetable was published 16 days before the festival started.
