I've been checking how the predictions were... let's have a look:   A total of 35 artists were correctly predicted, including 6 of the big names proposed, missing only LCD Soundsystem from t

OK we get it, you are a straight male that likes guitars and drums. You don't seem to like pop music very much. Fine. We get it. You don't have to keep telling us. We don't all have to think the same

No way they are satisfied with 2 festivals. Clear intentions to keep expanding and capitalise on brand and ability to batch buy bands.

 

Pretty sure they will announce another one in Europe before long.

 

Yeah unfortunately this is just the Primavera mindset now. 

 

I expect Italy will be next, there was some rumours of that C2C Turin collaboration. And then maybe they'll look into that Primavera London one again, I know that this year they extended the Victoria Park licence.

Wow. What is the reason ? They usually have incredibly strong line ups

 

In my opinion, there are two main points.

 

First, the Chile factor. We're not in Europe or the USA, so bands come here and only play 3 to 5 shows, so we need all countries to help with the costs. After problems in the first year with the local organization, Barcelona broke with Santiago and the festival did not take place there, and was not planned that year either.

 

Second, I don't know how the negotiations were going so here is my guess. The producer moved here last year, and got a master sponsorship from Banco do Brasil, in addition to other beverage sponsorships. Perhaps this sponsorship would not be repeated this year, which would make the festival very unfeasible (here I'm not just talking about South America, but production costs are absurd all over the world, see the cancellation of Desert Daze and the tickets of mega artists like Taylor Swift or now Oasis costing 150 pounds on a stadium pitch).

 

One last point, this being more romantic and thinking that nothing above happened: I believe that one of the headliners was QOTSA - they were at Corona Capital -, since, around here, it will always be necessary to have big headliners to attract a large audience.

NIN were never on the 2020 or 2021 line up…


But Gabi said in an interview that they were planned for any of those years iirc. That‘s why I always assumed they‘ll definitely be playing once they come back to Europe. 2022 was an exclusive deal with Hellfest so doesn‘t count.
