22nd of July

Not too bad. I think Primavera and Lowlands posted like 2 weeks prior...

 

As I bought a day ticket for the strokes, I only want to know if I can also catch m83 before/after. But I'll be happy with strokes eitherway

Extremely unlikely to clash as both on main stages surely and they dont overlap.

That's good news! I wonder if m83 are gonna play before or after, so I know if I should reconsider the shuttle back I booked (2:30am)

I'd say after but never can be sure

I reckon The Strokes, then M83, then Underworld but not sure on the order. Unlikely to clash though - as the biggest acts that day.

Just back from BBK Live. M83 Played early on one of the main stages. Think it was half 9.

Sure but BBK has a far stronger lineup with more competition for spaces.

There are three slots to be filled on the main stages at the end of the night and the Headliner last year took the first of those ending in a strong dance act (which is surely Underworld). And M83 have definitely gone on late at other festivals, if not BBK.

That said, it could be M83->The Strokes->Underworld.

M83 goes better at night for sure. I remember at Nos Alive ‘16 something like Arcade Fire —- M83 on the Main Stage…what a great combination it was!

When are they going to announce our one final big name?!

We're missing Blur, Prodigy, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Aphex Twin - they owe us one more...

Especially because Underworld and M83 were replacements and not additional names it would seem!

7 weeks to go!

Where is everyone staying and how are they getting there each day?

The prices in Mijas are too high and getting there from Malaga city takes too long, so gonna try glamping this year.

[Sarahw2]

Los Amigos Beach Club is not far away with plenty of taxis all the time cost us around 11 euro to get to the festival last year. 

Prices for these apartments are very reasonable IMO. 

[Daniel Comino Royuela]

Airbnb 10 min away with taxi to the festival.

Booked in january at a reasonable prize.

A flat in the center of Fuengirola. Very reasonably priced.

[Drums Please Fab]

I better get cracking booking something.

I was Primavera and Madcool focused.

An apartment in Fuengirola.

Getting there seems to be easy enough by train/bus/taxi. I'm still a bit unsure about getting back though, without the timetable it's impossible to predict what time to book the shuttle bus back for. It's a shame you need to do this so specifically, rather than just a regular service.

[gingerevans84]

Those folk staying in Fuengirola, you getting the local bus/trains to Mijas? And a taxi back?

It isn't a line of shuttle buses that depart when full to bring you back? They have to be booked? Ah Jesus

How much is a taxi?

[Daniel Comino Royuela]

Things are moving now, not long before timetable is out…
