Weather has definitely improved on most forecasts since the start of the week. Stv had a quick outlook and there will only be snap showers not too heavy and they look to be all during the morning which makes it perfect for campers. Thursdays actually looking a cracker along with sunday

Seems like the bulk of the rain is going to be in the early hours of Friday morning and then some intermittent showers throughout the afternoon but nothing severe. From the forecasts I've seen the rain seems to be moving closer to Thursday generally that the weekend now.

Exactly my thought.. with only 2 days to go until music, you would have thought they would have the lighting rigs up and running and the sound desk all wired up.

 

Presume this was taken some time ago - just to look pretty in the (rare) sunshine ;)

Thats my initial thought, probably taken earlier in the week. But even with that, it doesn't look anything like the photo doing the rounds

Looks like the Saturday forecast is notably improving to dry weather, with the rain now more in two bands either side, one throughout much of Friday and the other now going to hit sometime on Sunday. Thursday still dry.

Sunday 2012 makes that pic look like the Sahara. If it was 2012 it was sat morning .The rain came as the headliners finished . New order in my case. Then it turned to somme. But wetter.

Aye it looks like it because you can still see grass. Zero grass come Sunday morning

    • Absolutely second this. Were great at Big Weekend and already have a great catalogue of songs forming so far. Would love to see them on the farm!
    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
