325 euro is currently £280 so not wildly out of whack with UK prices given substantial inflation

glastonbury is £340

primavera porto is however 140 euro so if thats any good, could be a decent alternative…,.

I'm looking at this as a back up. Flights are considerably cheaper. 

Failing that I'll just pick up a resale ticket closer to the time for Barcelona.

You're only a proper Indie band if you've been addicted to opioids for at least three years

 

jokes aside, I like the Libertines, but they are notoriously unreliable and their live qualities are highly questionable nowadays. Wouldn't be booked at PS surely

Week before. Would love Numan, Interpol, The Beth’s and Echo and the Bunnymen!

[Quadrophobia]

Echo And the Bunnymen is a name I'd expect, Interopol wouldn't play two years in a row.

 

[DDave]

Primal Scream for the Wednesday? If the Wednesday is still a thing?

Damn, I was at weekend 1 last year and had completely forgot they played the 2nd weekend

[kaytee...]

What day do people try to arrive in Barcelona for the festival? I've only done the two weekends this year so what day to the gigs in the city typically start before the festival? 

[FindTheGhost]

Finally made an account as this is actually quite exciting. Re: the pricing, I've never been to Primavera before. Once the lineup is announced, will there be 1 day tickets? Or can you only buy a ticket for the whole festival? Thanks, I hope you all get some names you're waiting for! 🙂

Surprised you reckon Travis, Kendrick and Rocky could be there. I know they've moved slightly more in a hip-hop direction but I'd be shocked if they got 3 headliners. Add Darkside and Floating Points to your list and I'd be buzzing though.

^As for Interpol, that would be 3 editions in a row. Zero chance of them I think.

I usually do Tuesday - Monday.. leaves at least a little time around the festival

flights might determine your decision - i usually fly back on the monday but that day is silly for flight prices now, so coming back tuesday which is still cheaper with a another night in Barcelona's costs added on!

Primavera twitter said today that as well as weekend passes, there will be day tickets on sale from Dec 1st

I hope it's just a poster drop this year and not the craziness of 2019, or maybe it was 2020 when they had the names being drip-fed for hours.

Yeah I was looking at Tues-Mon but flights are ridiculous! Even flying out on the Monday bank holiday is cheaper, just means spending more on accommodation. I got my first week hotel this year for 400 euros, same place now is nearly 2k 😳

Except for this year, we always did Tuesday (evening) - Monday, so we can comfortably enjoy the free Wednesday concerts. But after this year when we spent 13 days (Wednesday - Monday) in Barcelona, the original setup suddenly felt quite insufficient, so for next year we're taking a Monday flight and hopefully for the first time ever we'll catch some pre-festival Monday/Tuesday ciudad shows.

It'll be a video and then the poster. RPS is hosting a session talking about the line up so no drip-feeding
