Does anyone else think it's strange the wonder years haven't announced a UK headline tour yet? Surely they can't just be supporting enter shikari?

I always assumed that they'd announce one not long after they've finished supporting Shikari

R&L Exclusive then own tour I bet. With regards to that tour and clashing, TKB being at Glasto now is great.

I'll assume that if they're an exclusive it will be more by accident as in the fact that no other festival will book them.

King blues headlining a stage but minus Jamie Jazz (ally pally his last.show)

Where is the heading a stage info from?

I think Slam Dunk is looking possible this year, 4 or 5 bands I want to see and that pays for ticket.

Hoping New Found Glory are on main personally but looks about right but thinking both NFG and Of Mice & Men could be main stage acts. Thinking Yellowcard may headline a stage too with them playing Ocean in full. Do we think they'll be just smaller bands added to the bill now or some surprises? As there were over 50 bands last year and going by that there's still going to be another 20

I'd probably see ROAM, SYG, FYS, TSSF, Yellow Card/Zebrahead and NFG/TKB. Set time dependant I'd probably watch WCAR over TSSF.

the hotelier touring may, hope they get added on ...

was expecting them last year !

Don't think they'll play. Touring the UK a few weeks before Slam Dunk and doing dates nearby the sites themselves. Just go and see them do their own headline sets with Into It. Over It (should be awesome)

When do we usually get stage splits?

I think it was about a month before last year so still a bit of time and probably another 2 announcements I'd say, not sure how big the bands will be we get but architects were in the last announcement last year if that's anything to go by

I remember reading that there are only 4 more acts left to announce so imagine there will only be one more announcement. Reckon one of them them could be a decent size one but I don't know why they wouldn't have been announced yet

I would have have thought there'd be more than that because there are only 32 acts announced and last year there were over 50

    • TOP 10 acts (top 5 in bold😞   Blood Orange (ciutat)   Guitarricadelafuente   Oklou - Looks like I'm capable of enjoying music in the rain after all, just not the whole night.   Rilo Kiley   The Cure   Jade   Depresión Sonora   Gelli Haha (Parc del Forum) - Her music never really clicked with me. Until I saw her live.   MARINA   Six Sex (ciutat) - I was shocked how supersmall the venue was and that almost everyone (except for me) knew every word of every song (including the ones that were released this weekend!).   Honorable mention:   Ashnikko - missed the first 15 minutes (because of Gelli Haha) and I'm not really a fan of her music, but the show was an absolute blast.
    • 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.
