I could see The Cure at all points east but there'd have to be other dates in the UK, for example Scotland and Ireland. I could not see it as their sole UK date. I think they'll just do their own shows over here as it makes more sense for them to do so. Agreed. If they do APE I can't see it being their only UK show. When they headlined Glastonbury in 2019 they also played Glasgow Summer Sessions & Malahide Castle and that was only 12 months after selling out BST. Their live stock has only grown since then and they 2022 UK Arena tour was one of the biggest in the band's history. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scatteredscreens Posted October 3 Report Share Posted October 3 Would keep expectations in check though. They book a lot of mid size acts for headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diancieprince Posted October 4 Report Share Posted October 4 (edited) don't see Aurora in primavera 2025 tbh (especially considering that she has been releasing music since 2016 and has never been given a spot at the festival even when she has been active in europe during early summer) but we will see Edited October 4 by diancieprince 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diancieprince Posted October 4 Report Share Posted October 4 I would keep an eye on the lineup for the Unsound festival located in Poland, which is currently taking place. There's always a handful of names that appear there and perform the following year at Primavera. It seems that part of the booking team of PS has a good relationship with the organizers of Unsound, or at least they seek inspiration there. This is understandable considering it’s one of the most important european festivals in the field of electronic avant-gard or at least non-commercial music. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it though. I'd imagine they would do a few dates there and then festivals in mainland Europe. I'm skeptical of that supposed leak but we'll find out soon.

The reason I kind of believe the leak is it would be easy to just put a 7 day gap between the two Primaveras if it were fake but the specificity of The Cure playing in Barcelona on the Saturday and the Porto on the Thursday legitimises it a bit for me. Also, The Cure playing All Points East vs BST to me makes sense considering their shunning of premium and dynamic pricing on their last tour, BST is pretty much all VIP tiers if you want to get close to the band, All Points East is one fixed price pretty much. And Ticketmaster isn’t the main ticketing partner of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Ticketmaster isn’t the main ticketing partner of it. I mean BST and APE are both owned by Goldenvoice. APE also has VIP. Plus, the last time The Cure played BST they simply removed the golden circle and it was first come first serve for a wristband on the day. FWIW I don't think they'll play either BST/APE and just do their own shows in the UK. It's very rare for them to play festivals in the UK these days. Festivals elsewhere, who knows.

festivalguy97 Posted October 4 Report Share Posted October 4 Donald Glover just cancelled all his tour due to illness and he’s gonna undergo a surgery, so I guess he’s out of Primavera. And even if he decides to tour again, it will be probably to reschedule all the arena dates again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that he’s not coming back anymore. I mean, why bother? It was already his last tour as he’s not very interested in music and is more focused in cinema, TV and writing.

Daniel Ferreira Posted October 5 Report Share Posted October 5 Yesterday I met someone linked to Primavera Sound Porto and I asked about The Cure and he replied “they didn’t want to…” I didn’t understand the rest of the sentence, whether they didn’t want a tour or they didn’t want Primavera Sound.

joselito Posted October 5 Report Share Posted October 5 Bob is the Cure manager... I think the only reason is if he wants or not play festivals. Since their last album, they always sell well arenas in any Europe City. But, playing Primavera as a headliner is a plus nowadays, like Depeche Mode did 2 years ago. With a new album, i think they are 90% in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, i don´t think he will burn one year of promoting this album doing dj sets, while producing another XX album... So, i don´t expect a XX album until late 2026 or 2027...
