Darkside yesterday were insane. Im thinking to skip Blur to see them again tonight.
-
My tickets got returned as well, even if i have 2 festival tickets under my name.
Very problematic system finally. And they didnt communicate the limitations clearly.
They force me to cancel the remaining tickets as well, since i dont want to go alone.

what's wrong with this? makes it more fair so people can see a show at least. more than one could end up with people getting multiple venues and some people getting none.
Maybe I misunderstood, but will it be possible to book 2 tickets at once for the same show, for me and my friend (both ticketholders)?
-
One booking per venue and day for Primavera a la ciutat. This sucks. They could had maximum 2 bookings per person, provided both of them to be ticket holders.

Remember that happening with Rodriguez a few years ago. That was a big bummer,
well, my friend, that was a decade ago 😲

With only 2 headliners each day, kinda massive but different from each other, I believe this year the Mordor setting will have only one stage for a huge crowd.

Doing my 10th (and final) Primavera Sound Barcelona next summer and still looking forward to the lineup release like a kid on Christmas. I like that we dont have any leaks so far.
Btw, Primavera Sound in Buenos Aires was concidentally the same week I went there for vacation a couple of weeks ago. Argentinians are so much fun at festivals, the vibe a bit different to the more chill Barca crowd (even with a 3(!!!)beer max limit at the festival site). First time seeing a mosh pit at an Interpol concert, and the crowd singalong at Mitski, Lorde and Arctic Monkeys was maybe the loudest Ive ever heard at a festival. Didnt bother seeing Travis Scott, and fingers crossed he doesnt play Barca edition in 2023. Mitski was the biggest positive surprise, hope I get to see her again in June.
It ll be also my 10th this year, and also the last one. End of an era..and different priorities from now on..

hi all, first weekender here, just recovered from covid.
We had great time once again (9th), and i have to say that almost all gigs we attended were superb.
It is obvious that artists love privamera and it is probably their favourite festival.
On the other side, i have to admit with heavy heart, that the festival was dangerously oversold this year.
There were queues everywhere, like never before (auditori, bars, metro/tram/bus). It was kinda stressful.
I couldnt believe my eyes, when rayban (cupra) was almost full during early afternoon shows (faye webster) - used to be half empty at previous editions at that time. Auditori was never queued at 17.00 before (Kim Gordon).
During Dinosaur Jr, we couldnt find a single spot to be able to watch the stage, and it is an amphiteatre! That was crazy. I cant remember having this issue also with rayban before.
I dont know if the magic is lost, but after many years we re not gonna buy an earlybird, and maybe skip next few editions and try
something different.

Have they had tickets for these shows before? Or are these a new thing for this festival? Always assumed first come, first served.
They had tickets for Suede and I think also Spiritualized. I believe it wont be necessary for Low at that time.

The idea of a load of people standing on scaffolding. Creeps me out.
True. I think thats why the capacity seems very limited, in order to have things under control.

It seems that the small VIP area (not the setaed area in the back) is more like a balcony. Limited capacity, but impressive view.

I'm with you - I've never been to Primavera but have had to adapt my approach to Glasto similarly in the last few years!
What is Flatstock? Seen a few people mention it.
It is a poster exhibition. I'm not sure if they mentioned sth for this year, but i believe it ll happen again.

I have stayed several times in Auditori without it being cleared. But it will depend if there is a big queue for Autchere. I remember that sometimes is cleared between big acts.
You can stay in Auditori for the next act. It is cleared, only if the next act is ticketed (ps Spiritualized )
-
I think that the best way to enjoy the festival, is to have a relaxed schedule between the gigs, and leave some free space for exploring the area, meet people and have some drinks/meal, visit flatstock etc. I used to run like crazy from stage to stage and be anxious about finding a good spot, but this is not for me anymore.
Also for those who ll make a very tight schedule, please have in mind the distance between the stages.. It might take ages to go from Mordor to the Bits area..

I'm genuinely concerned that The National clashing with Parquet Courts could cause some irreparable tension between myself and the girlfriend.
🙂 🙂 in our occasion, we ll have some drama if there's a clash between Beck and Low..

This will be my 9th Primavera & I've never had any issue with people chatting in the crowd - only time was PJ Harvey after getting there late post Drive Like Jehu (what a set!) & being stuck out near the back & as expected people were chatting - otherwise whenever I've been down near the front / middle, no problem.
I also remember the 2019 crowd being incredible, so diverse & everyone so up for every band I saw. 3 years since the last edition & I can only imagine what people are going to be like this year.
Seriously excited now!!!
OH - and any new Primavera people, make sure you don't miss the Auditori stage, so beautiful & great for some early shows on the Friday / Saturdays - & like others have said, people do love a nap in here.My 9th as well , and i couldnt agree more about Auditori. Half of my personal highlights were there. I was so disappointed when they said that for 2020 edition was unavailable..

I like the idea that local residents can join, who would love to attend but don’t have enough money for a festival ticket.
I also like this idea, but this could be accomplished with a free day in an open area (as Wednesdays used to be), and not clubs with very limited capacity. We ll see how it ll work.
-
Im not sure, but I think the ciutat tickets (15% of the capacity) are available for everyone, and not only ps ticket-holders. And of course with the same price.
This doesn't seem 100% right, imo.
-
Since the festival is 2 weekends, they will definitely have grass in the mordor

I don't think Bjork was replaced in 2012, but she cancelled with about a month to go. They offered day ticket refunds. Doubt they would do that now.
I think they added St Etienne, but probably not as a Bjork replacement
