Cos I have a wife and kids and my job means I work away a lot, so my festival weekends are limited to one per year only nowadays!

Ahh right, your V Fest experience has gone bye bye now. I thought you meant the festival was going bye bye because of Black Keys

Got my ticket... that was a LOT easier than trying to get tickets like this before. I'm used to being in queues for ages but literally got straight through! I guess the line up isn't so desirable this year. Still, gonna be great :)

Which site Is it easier to get to and hotel by and where?

Depends where you live haha.

Let me know if it's Weston park I know a few cheap hotels/b&b around the Weston park area.

Mate owns a pub with b&b 5 minutes away from Weston park, so that could be useful for you and the gf.

Who was due to play main stage before The Saturdays were put there?

I think I am right where V is aiming their line up, and I agree that some people want their older acts to be higher up but V goes with more pop and dance higher up, which I dont mind

No one was

I find it hard to believe V would fill all of one day's main stage, and both days on the years previous but leave one spot for the saturdays to have after Little Mix dropped out.

Poth have you got tickets, or are you going to miss this year out?

Well it was that lol, no one dropped out before the Saturdays were announced for main stage.

I haven't yet as I cannot afford them ATM, but will get them later

Little Mix disappeared on the same announcement as Saturdays arrived on as far as I can remember

Now that changes it completely for me. Assuming that's the same time as timberlake that basically means my favourite band on the lineup get to play in the dark and get a full set, hopefully meaning at least a couple of old tunes.

Me and the wife have bought tickets on that assumption. Gives us a headline act we want to see each night, chuck manics below elbow as well and that will be a cracking end to the festival for me

    • Totally agree about PinkPantheress stage choice. 'Luckily' for me, one of my main targets, fakemink, was absolutely awful, meaning that I left early and was in a surprisingly good spot at Cupra before it got totally packed.
    • As many said before, not my favourite Primavera. sh*tty weather is something I'm not really used to when enjoying music. Poor communication (more than 1 hour long radio silence during the worst rain) didn't help, but the main problem was me. I decided to leave the venue after things seemed to be getting back to normal. Massive Attack were supposed to play again (with Hymn of the Big Wheel back on the setlist!) as were all other artists on the smaller stages (including Fcukers with one my favourite albums of the year). FOMO was at an all-time high. However, after 4 hours in the rain, I had to admit to myself that I'm not cut out for this. I wasn't even that soaked (water-proof jacket worked). I was just fed up with the rain, wind and cold and wasn't able to enjoy music anymore.   Also, they should stop ignoring the growth of some artists between signing them up and their actual performance. Both PinkPantheress and Ninajirachi sets were ruined for me by completely inadequate stage choice.   However, I felt very much the same way after the 2022 edition and have thoroughly enjoyed all subsequent editions. So I'm still buying early bird tickets for 2027 and hoping this was a hiccup not the start of a downward trend.
    • I will definitely be buying a 2027 early bird pass, partially because of the priority reservation privileges for the Ciutat sets. Hopefully the organization will take action to improve upon this year's failings. Because I thought the free water options and sound quality were an improvement over last year, so clearly they can actually implement positive changes.   I also hope all the douchebag chompers get in the sea, cause I was more bothered by them than in the past few years.   Highlights: The Cure, Ninajirachi, Knocked Loose, Current 93, Blood Orange.    
    • Similar feelings to a few others on here. Not my personal favourite edition but a long way from giving up on it. Felt overcrowded at times and there are just too many people there that don't seem to like music that much! Hardly went to main stages which was the plan. Highlights Ralphie Choo, rusowsky, Gorillaz, Geese, Gelli Haha, The Sophs, PinkPantheress, Dijon. Accommodation booked for next year. Thanks for your company and comments over the past year.
