Primavera Sound 2022

I believe return ticket option will only become available once the festival sells out.

 

but I’m not sure what the process is for people who bought tickets for 2020/21 festival and want a refund?

I think it's one of those insurance policies that is just a bit of a rip-off as you need to have very specific circumstances to be able to claim. That said, it is just 15 euros so maybe worth it.

It does says this on the ticket page:

Some are worth the cost, if they f.e. just require a doctors statement that you're sick. Others, you'll have to get sruck by lightning while being runover by a truck to claim

There will be a refund form available sometime today (or tomorrow possibly)

Yeah I think the way it works is you can return your ticket to Dice by using the 'return ticket' option, who will then offer it to somebody on the event waiting list. But more often than not, this option hasn't been available to me when using Dice. Not sure whether it only becomes available when the event is sold out? I'm sure somebody else will have a better idea.

Edit: @beatkeeper seems to have confirmed this - cheers!

The amount of confusion around this year's festival, previous tickets, upgrading, installments, refunds, VIP etc etc is something else. They've never exactly been known for their incredible customer service or communication, but they really should have had a bulletproof list of answers for these when the lineup got released.

haha yes, exactly this - and there's always a tiny bit of trepidation when i turn up to get my wristband on the first day that something won't have worked properly...

Yeah it makes sense that it would need to sell out first... which I'm sure it will? For weekend 1 at least?

VIP Weekend 1 for us. As we bought ours at early booking price (250€ Per ticket) it makes absolutely no sens to upgrade for 400 bucks just to have an extra 3 days with weaker line-up

I'd have guessed so - I saw the sold out message pop up briefly for 'weekend 1 + refund' which suggests there aren't loads left. But it's difficult to say given they're in new territory with the double weekend setup, and of course the ongoing covid concerns.

on twitter the PS team are saying the refund protection tickets "Sold out within seconds," as some people were complaining.

For the Ciutat gigs, if everyone wants to queue up for Beck, Jamie XX, King Gizzard, Megan etc so I can sneak in to MIKE, Lost Girls, KeiyaA, Hailu Mergia without a problem then that would be much appreciated!

If you don't want to make the detour through the dropbox excel file, the specific club splits for the midweek shows are back on the website

Anyone switch from weekend 1 to weekend 2 and now their dice app is saying they have tickets to both? That's currently what's happening to me, not the worst problem mind

[Hip Priest]

I feel PS are downplaying the significant increase in capacity in order to build FOMO in ticket buyers. It's hardly been mentioned, here or elsewhere.

MIKE, Lord Apex, Flohio, KeiyaA for me! (and Kero Kero Bonito but i imagine that would be rammed)

Haha sounds like you should stay quiet and try and get away with it

Even the priority access could‘t convince us

Oh yeah, totally get that but it is an upgrade 'perk' for some.

I remember Sunday nights at the Apolo where there was a big queue a couple of times and priority could skip the whole thing.

Fuck it I've just bought Weekend 1 tickets in a moment of madness! Argh! Am excited and also slightly concerned that I've bullied my other half into it (who is struggling to picture himself at any kind of gig or festival). But I have a year to talk him round!

My first time with a great line-up so am really excited to have something to look forward to (for a reaaaally long time) and a line-up to explore. It's been too long! Definitely makes up for not having Glasto tickets too.

Weekend 1 close to sold out 

[xxialac]

Patti Smith's European dates suggest she could be a good candidate to be added.

Weekend 1 tickets bought and hotel booked

Excellent stuff! You been before?

Total newbie question: why is the date on the ticket confirmation from the Wednesday? Does it start on Weds or Thurs?
