How long would I have to wait for a good spot for a headline spot? Would it be worth skipping father john misty for a good spot for the national

20 mins maybe though depends how you define a good spot. Not IMO, I really rate Father John Misty as a performer.

[kingcrawler]

Depends on the headliner too, Arcade Fire was pretty busy half an hour before their set last year but didn't seem too bad for Bon Iver around that time. I think I'll watch Father John Misty from nearer the back and get a good spot for The National around 15/20 minutes before their set, can't see it being too busy then.

Sound - generally excellent (occasional issues on the main stages).

People talking - getting worse every year (worst on the main stages)

Thanks Shame about the people talking but I guess that will never be avoided. Glad to hear the sound is generally good.

Yeah not one of my favourites from the album to be honest, maybe a song like Saint might have gone over a little better. Also I know Bjorks recent gigs were very Utopia heavy but based on setlist fm she does seem to give slightly more hit friendly sets for festivals.

Se has not really played any festivals since Utopia though, and short time since Utopia, so I would not be so sure about that.

Well it'd be pretty hard to hide so that answers that then. Thanks

Well... full bottle in hand, lid in the pack at the entrance might just work. Take it apart right before and put it together again behind the entrance and you have a perfectly working, filled water bottle.

There are a couple near the food area if I remember correctly, though they tend to run out of water before the end of the night.

Yes. But the water tastes like shit.

In order to access the Spiritualized concert on Wednesday 30th May at 8:00pm in the Auditori Rockdelux you will need to show your full festival wristband, and to have purchased a reservation ticket.

The tickets can be bought on the same day of the show, from 3:00pm on the ticket offices at the entrance of the Parc del Fòrum site. The price is 2€ per ticket and each person can only purchase a maximum of two tickets.

I wonder when will be the proper time to get in line for Spiritualized. A friend of mine was sold on PS based on this gig.

Before 6pm I'd guess? If desperate, before 4pm?

I meant for the tickets. They start selling tickets at 3.

i highly doubt that 1500 people will show up there until 3 and buy all tickets. i think if someone show up around that time, he will get a ticket.

[xxialac]

Yes and that’s the question I answered. No chance they’ll all sell out at 3pm.

 

[ghostdancer1]

is there anything to do close to Parc del Forum for 2 hours after you buy your ticket around 3pm? Holy Bouncer don't start until 5pm.....

should have made it either much earlier in the day (11am-1pm), so that people can leave and come back later, or have it at 4pm, so that there isn't a long wait until the music starts....

Hi everyone!
Anyone interested in a full PRO Ticket?

It's like the ordinary full ticket plus some extras, like:

-Fast access without queues to the Forum

-Fast access without queues to the Auditori, Apolo etc..

-Welcome kit

-Access to the Night PRO Area and the Press Longue (with working areas, lockers and press sets)

-Access to all the Day PRO conferences, concerts, workshops, reunions etc

I have an extra ticket that I'm not going to use it, I paid 215€ for it, but I think that 200€ is fair enough (It's a good bargain since ordinary tickets are sold out and they costed 215€ each... and VIP tickets and saturday tickets are also sold out and where even more expensive in comparison)

contact me if you are interested!

Strictly for media people though, isn't it? Not sure it's transferable.
