That's a bit too early to drop the lineup no? As far as I remember it was always coming in the afternoon and the earliest is like like 12PM spanish time. But hopefully it comes at 10AM Spanish time, the earlier the better, don't want to be shocked during lunch 

Last year it was 11AM spanish time.

What could be the act that both Primavera and NorthSide are holding? As far as I know NorthSide is not into having very big international acts or very exclusive acts, out of the ones mentioned before idk what can it be? SZA? Lana? Travis Scott?

Cause the likes of The National, Janes Addiction, Pulp, PJ Harvey were already announced in other festivals.

They had the likes of Muse or Nick Cave the last couple years so I'd say they are looking at equally sized acts as PS. Could really be anything.

Northside used to have the same promoter as Hurricane/Southside in Germany and thus had synergy in booking, but has been independent from them for a couple of years now and has apparently looked at PS for booking what they bring to Europe in early June.

Or nothing. The release schedule is almost identical to last year's one, I don't think there's any embargo in play.

About female headliners:

What's with Bjork? Is she doing anything next year? As far as I remember her last time at Primavera was back in 2018 and this year she gave a Madrid concert but no Barcelona date was announced.

Regarding SZA, I feel like it's the most probable name we can get, although there are no European and only LATAM, I still feel like it's her.

Lana could be a possible addition, but I can't see any dates so no idea if she's touring.

Karol G for me is 95% in, but I doubt they will add her as headliner.

Royel Otis sound like a nice little late afternoon set with some pleasant War on Drugs vibes here and there.

You cannot put Karol G anywhere but in the headline.

I think all of them are possible but I'd prefer Nelly Furtado to any (or all) of them.

it was a joke because Tool were fanatically discussed here, despite being a completele weird fit

I totally forgot about her, and after 2023 edition it wouldn't surprise if they brought her.

Another artist that I feel is a big possibility is Kylie Minogue, specially because of her new album, don't know if she can have a headliner status tho, but maybe she can.

The dates lined up and it seemed like a wild booking. 

It made for more interesting discussion than Karol G or whoever she is.

[Fleetwood_Mac_And_Cheese]

Just tried to get london AIR tickets but due to them playing a stupidly small venue was unsuccessful. 

Here's hoping they play Primavera huh

Bjork has recently said her current touring thing (cornucopia?) is finished now. I'm not expecting any new dates from her.

I can definitely see her doing the Wednesday night as per that fake poster

[NorthernSoul52]

Announcement time, you say?

[Memory Man]

Kylie at prima is hilarious

no chance

It would be amazing tho

[Boss89]

Air is selling out all their European shows in seconds... Crazy!

Hope to see 'em at sunset at Primavera

[NorthernSoul52]

I mean, it would be a hoot, but very much in the good sense.

why? I mean, currently there are no indications, but it would absolutely be possible. She has played much smaller fests than PS, I saw her at MELT in 2015 headlining alongside Alt-J and London Grammar

Air is selling out. 
so is the smile. 
 

i passed and didn’t bother getting tickets for neither of them. 
they better be on the line up 😅 

[NorthernSoul52]

Have The Smile shifted tickets that fast? I mean, I thought they probably would sell out - even without that many people caring about their tunes, it's Thom Yorke after all - but not necessarily straight out of the gate.

They're great live, the debut album was really good imo and as you said, it's Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood. I'm not surprised they're so popular. In fact I was very surprised they played Cupra last time as I thought they'd be too big - but it was perfect.
