For me personally it has always been the quality and the variety of the undercards that has brought me to Primavera every year since 2016 and that makes this festival unique. Very seldom spend any time in Mordor except for a couple of concerts each year. Hopefully they will be able to put together a great collection of undercards next year as well.

Fred Again.. confirmed for Way Out West. Surely tbc for Sziget after those hints here.

no hints whatsoever for long so let me please bring up my roman empire. should I move on? probably will I? never

You and me both mate Blimey, instead of trying to stretch themselves so thin to sell as many tickets as possible, they should just sell your Ts if they’re that desperate for the money. Brilliant that mate

I don’t think there is any chance for a RHCP hat trick but if that were the case I’m probably the only one here that wouldn’t cry over it (especially considering most of the names I hear lately). And to be very honest if the alternative is someone like Ed Sheeran, bring me RHCP again and again and again… If I had to pick one returning big name from last year though, that would be QOTSA.

Would be brilliant if they managed to get Blink, Avril and Limp Bizkit.

So it begins…

I know we’re not supposed to admit this, but that Brand New set is the best headliner that never was for Trees.

The Gossip teasing a comeback. Would be perfect on Cupra.

Told ya 😎

‘But, we all know what happened next, the world changed and I ended up putting out three albums instead, and I thought, ‘f**k that farm’.

We simply don't know all the names available yet. There are three names (PJ Harvey, Pulp, Kali Uchis) that could be headline level (if maybe not in the #1 spot) in the mix as of now. Many fests like Rock Werchter, Pinkpop, Down the Rabbit Hole, Best Kept Secrret or We Love Green haven't yet announced anything at all. There are gonna be many more names coming up. Also, PS is often one of the first festivals to announce certain big names, f.e. The Cure have been rumored to play Europe in 2024 before and would be a good fit for PS as well as the aforementioned fests. And

fronted by an abuser playing a festival that is supposed to be inclusive and offer safe spaces? I really hope not https://www.bigissue.com/culture/music/primavera-sound-misogyny-and-sexual-harassment-uk-festivals/

apologies its a bit secondhand so ill quote ... Taylor Swift unlikely to ever happen at Pilton as although a fee was previously agreed , all other demands made by her and her management company were so ridiculous it caused disagreement with them and GFL .... I trust the source

I have info from a reliable source Šumski are the third headliner.

I feel like reading the same things again and again lol king have said on Reddit not touring Spain interpol are elsewhere at the exact same dates of Primavera. another 2/3 weeks before all these chats go away lol though I’m enjoying reading

Or King Gizz have formally acknowledged Catalan independence and thus refuse to call their PS date a Spain show

I don't think the booking proces has specific boxes like that to tick. If no legacy band like Descendents or Bad Religion is around, there simply isn't gonna be one. Still, its early and many bands that'll be touring next summer haven't been announced anywhere yet. I can see PS bring Bane, Incendiary or Gel in terms of Hardcore/Punk, but apart from that, I don't see many fitting bands around. However its not really a core genre, so they could sip it alltogether.

JB15 for president.

He was so annoyed by the amount of people camping for RHCP... and when they brought a guy to play the drums in a RHCP shirt I couldn't stop laughing

As with Arcade Fire, Brandon Flowers wasn't exactly thrilled by the audience last year, but I doubt it means much. They play where their agents tell them to play.

I don’t think they’ll do the hat trick but The Killers just announced a new album for the end of this year so they may be back sooner th an we expected

No problems apologies, it just rubbed me wrong way!

Don't need patronising comments. I know promoters are trying to sell tickets, but clearly something has gone a miss given they released a record, did a handful of UK dates (that had a horrible atmosphere in the aftermath of the allegations) and largely fell off the map. Clearly a lot of promoters probably thought they weren't worth touching. Unfortunately they'll get booked again for stuff over time yes you're right, but some people won't forget.

Headlined Cala Mijas last year and it was incredible. They also done a 2 stop tour before playing Bilbao BBK and Nos Alive (I think?) so they basically tour when they want. If they wanted to come UK, they'd still hold a very healthy crowd.

Ditto, there's always a great alternative in the tent - on this topic I'd love Idles opposite Duran Duran, they'd be a riot in the tent

Announcement tomorrow 8am.

Few issues with that leaked poster is as I said above it states Pantera first UK show in 20 years when it would be 23 years (I think) and Lonely The Brave have hinted they are being announced whilst they ain’t on the poster, and some of the order of the bands names are wrong, I think the poster last year that got leaked looked more legit as it had draft all over it and wasn’t as clear as this one now, guess we’ll see soon enough anyway.

You are making this so complicated

So quite possibly it's Sam Smith and Fred Again so far, while former Sziget-bands like The Kooks, Flogging Molly and Rise Against are also available. Though I feel Rise Against to be a little bit unlikely, but I definitely expect The Kooks and maybe Flogging Molly to turn up.

I love The National, Slowdive and Idles and think KG are amongst the best live acts out there, but I must say I find it somewhat comforting that PS apparently isn't going for (all) these low hanging fruit.

Huh, that’s odd. Seems like one of the the easiest ways they could make money. Thanks for the reply 😊

Ah that's even better, sounds like there won't be a huge mad rush to get from the headliners/last band to get the train back. That is excellent info as well, thank you so much!

Smashing pumpkins are playing together with interpol on the 24 in Austria. So SP will definitely not be playing on the first day and Interpol got very likely to play Inmusic as well

They don’t do early bird so it’s just what it costs. I’m only 20 mins from the site but only went in 2017 for the first time. Been every year since though, it’s a great festival!

Was great until the sideways rain!

I'm still hoping for Paul McCartney. Would be fitting now with all the buzz around Beatles "new" single.

Fred Again has got to be a contender https://www.facebook.com/100064940731984/posts/pfbid0D4xciuXCd32emyiusXsGSgT1LxCNKmTFFatsYWPpQ12zkBQrn1Zuk55cbqMXkpU6l/

He would be but there is also a slot 3rd down on Saturday they could give him in an extended slot they have done before. I could see Coldplay, female pop act, Sting with a 1hr 15 minutes set in 3rd place or simply just give him a sub slot.

More of an interesting fact than good news but Glastonbury is EAST of Edinburgh….

If they book hozier to headline as well as Duran Duran they better have some top tear in the tent at the same time so I can avoid both 🤣

I worked Reading this year, must say I enjoyed BabyQueen.

Her averaged out 2023 setlist (Would be quite different from most other Legend performances): Outside The Rain Dreams If Anyone Falls Stop Draggin' My Heart Around Fall From Grace For What It's Worth Gypsy Wild Heart Bella Donna Stand Back Soldier's Angel Gold Dust Woman I Sing For The Things Edge of Seventeen Free Fallin' Rhiannon Landslide

Nothing but Thieves

Ordered lots of light panels

@Sziget2024_Leaks any more info?😊

Here is a screenshot of the evidence required for a PA ticket in 2023, this could change. If you have any doubt about getting one buy a ticket. This can always be refunded at a later time. 🙂

My understanding is your friend needs to first get a ticket when they go on sale and once they have secured their ticket they can apply for a person assistant (PA) ticket. The website states: "Once you (ie your friend) have secured your Festival ticket please contact the Festival’s Access Team to request the link for the online Access Application Form. This will then be emailed out in December. Customers wanting to apply for a PA ticket and/or needing to use any of the access facilities during the Festival must submit their Access Application Form by the 30th April 2024"
