I know it is a small issue but The Kooks are especially annoying to me. They must be UK's most-toured band in Spain in the last 20 years. Every €20 small music festival in Spain has them every year. That combined with Maneskin as headliners being just a glorified cover band, and many other acts that are alright but have been touring for the last two decades... It is just disappointing coming from previous years. I have got the full 4 days ticket and now thinking of skipping that Friday. Some good undercards there but not sure worth the effort.

Thought it was difficult to make the lineup more boring but they have achieved it. Price tag is still great though so it will be a sold out.

That's the case of pretty much every festival in Spain and imo makes more sense than a festival ending 3AM on a Monday morning.

No, it's not a mistake. It's fully on purpose. Whether it is actually the worst publicity stunt ever or an horrific communication of cancellation, we will see at/in 20:25

If this a trick to add hype it is a pretty stupid one. I was already looking at buying full festival ticket for Primavera Sound and potentially NOS after seeing MC's post.

Anyone tried the Santander sale? Do you actually need a Santander card to buy this year or is it like last year where you could just use a code?

It really feels like you just join a fake link going nowhere and refreshing is pointless.

Waking up relatively early on a Sunday morning is. Just to give you an example, I applied for Taylor Swift lottery tickets and have 0 interest on her music. I wouldn´t have joined the sale or lost a single minute if it was a traditional queueing sale. Let alone a Sunday 9AM refresh one. I didn´t get selected but I would have bought tickets otherwise. I know many that did the same.

Not sure how fair it is that someone who is not even bothered to try the sales gets a ticket. It has even the potential to change the entire mood of the crowd attending. But yes, this is me being selfish and with clear symptons of stockholm syndrom. I am defending a system that has left me without ticket pretty much every year!

No one here should promote a lottery system. That would mean anyone who registers could get a ticket which actually decreases massively our chances. I am sure there are thousands of people who register and then just simply forget ticket day.

PS Madrid got cancelled as well. Not looking very bright for big festivals in Madrid atm.

Refunds of unused balances are already open and can be accessed here: IDASFEST (quite cheeky of them to keep 1.5€ per band as well) See some of you at Arctic Monkeys tonight!

Friday was the best day out of the 3. They solved most of the issues from Thursday and the site wasn't crazy busy. Yesterday had 10k more people and you could really feel it was at capacity. Everything was a struggle but I guess as could be expected with 80k people in that space. Access on Thursday was a real shitshow. BTW, everyone I talked to said Ifema was way better. Even taxi drivers said so. Anyone here who has been to both locations?

Top 5 sets for me: - Rufus du Sol - The 1975. Although they didn't seem like they want to be there. - Jamie XX - Robbie williams. Was not expecting him to be on my top list. - Delaporte
