The only Mad Cool act announced as Spanish exclusive is Foo Fighets. There are huge rumours that Green Day will be shared with another spanish festival (probably Resurrection Fest). Last year Mad Cool shared some acts with other spanish festivals (for example The Who , 091 and London Souls with Azkena Festival) I am not sure if they will share act with another major spansh festival (BBK or FIB), but it's a possibility.

Good stuff. I had a feeling Beni would get KoL given their history there and they will definitely do a heavy festival circuit next year.

They did share Biffy Clyro too last year but Mad Cool is now the weekend before FIB, so the likelihood of them sharing any major acts is incredibly low.

andytommo Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I can't see Mad Cool and Benicassim having any of the same international acts. Saying that, everyone man, woman and his dog seem to be playing Europe this summer, so here's plenty of announcements to come. Anyway, how far is the beach and water park away from the Mad Cool festival site? It's not just about the music at FIB, after all.......is it?

It's not and that's why I've been back there three times and considering the fourth, but money is getting tighter now so i'd like to see some good bands.

andytommo Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Two Doors (headliner), Phoenix, Weatherall & Fleet Foxes (a surprise), all heading to BBK, with today's announcements (+ more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregory Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Ok, let's speculate over the other 3 headliners. SOAD, FF, Depeche, KoL & GD are all supposedly out (headlining other Spanish festivals), leaving who? Arcade Fire, ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigshair123 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Arcade fire, radiohead, stone roses, kasabian , daft punk, coldplay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope I am wrong, I really do, as I think Mad Cool has blown them out of the water so far and with it being a week before they will lose sales to them.

Yeah, I'm still going with my original prediction of chase n status/justice, arcade fire and the weeknd being the remaining headliners. The main thing that makes me think arcade fire or radiohead is that all there other festival dates were announced within the same week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a different crowd. 80% of Mad Cool attendees are expected to be from Madrid region. Not very diverse headliners either, so not for me.

Itchy nose. It'll be the Roses or Arcade Fire as 2nd headliner announcement. Maybe we'll end up with both ......and what about the Courteeners headlining Thu night, together with Chase & Status on the main stage right after. I could see this happening.
