[lighthouse]

Arcade Fire, Sigur Ros and Nine Inch Nails will surely play Primavera 2023.

Yep I’d say they all look pretty likely, and goddamn what a three acts to have looking likely already.

Yeah I’ve been thinking those three, Rosalia, Lizzo and maybe The xx if they’re back. Would certainly be a strong year if they got most of them.

The Rosalia album is insane.

If we just keep predicting them, one of these years it’ll be true…

Due to a recent break up *sad face* I have a spare Weekend 1 ticket up for grabs for £175 (face value).

 

If anybody knows anyone get in touch and I can transfer immediately

 

Thanks!

I will date you now. Will you take me as your lawfully binding Primavera partner?

Will your father bless this arrangement?

New Arcade Fire album out in May. Kind of weird that they're not on the lineup of any major festival this year (at least till now)

Oh yes, I can feel it!

This is honestly such a huge loss, it’s gonna be difficult for them to ever match his energy on stage :(

[r55N]

sorry if this was discussed earlier... but have "Turnstile" canceled Primavera? They're no longer in the poster:///

They're on the Thursday

[purplecowz]

Have to wonder if NIN is a 2nd weekend backup headliner, those dates are perfectly aligned to keep them open on W2.

[purplecowz]

or a replacement for a canceled headliner that we don't know about yet...

Sorry for not clarifying,  I meant the in-between festival thingy. They were supposed to play on the 7th but no more in the line up there. We're going to W2.
It's a busy summer though, I'm sure we'll catch them somewhere else:)

As for the NIN comment above - no. Yesterday's announcement clearly showed the parameters of the Hellfest exclusivity deal. Not only there no other dates in (continental) Europe, but all UK shows are in small venues/places with Brixton Academy (5k capacity) being the biggest - means they were tied on that front as well. Anyway congrats to Hellfest for bringing NIN to Europe in the first place. They would never come only for the Apollo in Man or the Academy in Glasgow which is super-super small. Still those of you who manage to get tix for those will be in for a threat. When else you'll see Trent in such a small venue nowadays...

Nah, but they’ll almost certainly (I hope, anyway…) be there next year.

Yeah. No real sense in burning a Band like NIN for a sold out fest. 

As for the other guesses, I wouldn't expect as many "classic" PS acts since we are down to one weekend again.

Disappointing. I'm arriving that day & hoping to catch them.

It was spotted before ... 
 

But midweek gig is still listed on their page, so ...

portishead were a strong maybe for a while for 2023 weren't they? (apologies if someone's already started a PS23 chat elsewhere()

Much like every year, all comes down to whether they’ve got their new album and/or tour ready, but I imagine they’ll be incredibly likely the moment that happens.

yeh definitely - thought there was something a little more solid though, like geoff had said something, but might be my memory

[Gregorick]

So people can stop asking…

[scatteredscreens]

Portishead always get mentioned every prediction as @FloorFiller said. But often it's just baseless, I don't think Geoff has ever mentioned anything other than when he was on Zane Lowes show on Apple Beats for the anniversary of Dummy which he basically just said yeah it'll happen one day. Pretty sure atm he's just busy with Beak>.

Edit: As in he hopes a new album will happen eventually but they're in no rush.
