Concerts are free for everyone who's got any kind of weekend ticket. You can do a research by venue on the website and discover who plays where (some things can change until June). I'm curious if they will do some kind of reservation system this year or it will just be "firsts who came enter, until the capacity of the venue". Having concerts by Beck or Interpol it could be crazy.

In 2019 the first announcement came on February 11th and it was a little bit earlier than their usual. I don't know if they're going to start earlier this year but I don't think so: they usually like to move later than the other big festivals and go ahead announcing names until a few weeks before the festival takes place.

and have a US show in August. 99% ruled out.

Soulwax and Explosions in the Sky from 2020 program, please

Giving that 25 international acts have been announced, that usually 9 bands play each day between the 2 main stages and that the first day should be only Portuguese bands, we're still missing 11 international acts plus a bunch of Portuguese names and eventually some surprises. I wouldn't expect big big names from this one. I'm expecting a couple of quite big ones and some smaller ones (Fleet Foxes and BCNR could be good shouts as they would fit the festival tastes imo, but it's a small festival, Fleet Foxes would probably be a headliner and they already headlined the 2018 edition, so I don't know). We can rule Mac DeMarco out: despite of what he was supposed to do in 2020-21, he'll be touring Europe in June and not in August. As well as APE, also Sziget, OFF, WOW/OYA/Flow, Rock en Seine already announced some names and are announcing new ones. Some news should come soon from Lowlands and Green Man too. usually a few later come Pukkelpop, La Route Du Rock and the other ones. PdC always share names with most of these ones. I'm expecting DIIV, James Blake and someone between BCNR, Low, Kurt Vile, Dry Cleaning, Squid, Yard Act... Let's see

A small contribution from me: with my band we've got 5 shows between 12th and 19th March, all in indoor venues in France, Germany and Czech Republic, all booked months ago and, after a few months full of total uncertainty, they're all been confirmed during the last two days and some the venues just started promoting them on social networks. I don't know if something in particular happened last monday but we started receiving official confirmations. One of them is a quite big venue (Supersonic in Paris) where we're the opening act for a band from Los Angeles. It will be on March 14th and the official Facebook event has been created yesterday evening, even if the show has been booked last September. I hope these news will make us all a little more hopeful 🙂 The crazy thing is that we're unable to book shows here in Italy at the moment but who knows, things change fast.

Also Mac DeMarco will be around during Primavera. Probably one of the most likely names for a replacement/surprise.

It was 2020-21, not 2022... We're losing count 😭

Never been to Rock Werchter but I've been at Pukkelpop several times and also attended a few concerts in Belgium and I would say, also reading the infos on past editions RW website, that shuttle buses linking festival grounds to city centre are always very efficient in Belgium, so I would recommend you the Option 1 as it's obviously cheaper than Option 2 and still comfortable.

Thank you everybody, they showed me they paid my refund on September 21st. Maybe for some reasons it takes time to see the amount on my card.

Still nothing here... Does anyone else have news regarding refunds?

one minute before

+ Dead Can Dance at Auditori on May 30th (with their own ticket)... It's becoming a one month long Primavera...

Crazy lineup for 80€

I'm tempted too for 2021 as Wizzair will start with very cheap flights to Reykjavik from my closest airport in a few weeks. Never been to Iceland at all but I'd love to. Nice lineup (and many names to discover) for me, giving the festival tastes and the general situation. Mammùt's last record has been one of my favourite ones from last year (band from Iceland). For what I know it's a small, very folkish and picturesque festival, in case I'll let you know.

So five days PdC! Seriously thinking to finally come for my first time! I'll let you know in case I will
