None of those acts would be found at Primavera, plus Pavement are already headlining one night

While it's true that jj has the wrong idea about Primavera, I think The 1975 could easily be found at PS nowadays. Pitchfork Paris has them and that is aimed completely at the Primavera crowd.

I wouldn't be shocked at them being booked. But I don't think they're at the top of any lists either

Don't know if trolling or not... If not Primavera has totally failed with there "new" audience.

I assume you are very young. Imagine yourself being on here in future years and reading ‘who is the 1975?’

A world in which many of us dream to be in the future, I reckon

Everytime I see there's a new comment I think maybe a new Rumor or confirmation. 

But nope, just jj200,

Hey jj200, I don't want to be rude or disrespectful but I just looked at other posts of you and I don't really think Primavera is your kind of festival. Think you'd be dissapointed with a big chunk of the line up every year. Maybe you should focus more on things like Reading/Leeds, Rock Werchter, Roskilde, Nos Alive, Mad Cool, Coachella, Lollapalooza (Paris/Berlin)... (in case you're not joking that is  )

I don't know about headliners, but potential smaller acts so far could be great.

All these bands are active now or are gearing up for something: Battles, Brockhampton, Explosions in the Sky, Swans, Phoebe Bridgers, Pinegrove, The Avalanches, Thom Yorke (supposedly headlining West Holts at Glastonbury) Slowthai and tons more. Could be an excellent year

[riseupandkill]

is there still a 'no bands/acts two years running'  rule (with the odd exclusion like oh sees/shellac), or is that a thing of the past/was never true?

[thomas9790]

I'm expecting Tyler, Billie Eilish, Thom Yorke and Lana del Rey to headline. Maybe some indie headliners like Pixies or Foals as well to keep the Pavement fans happy.

I hope no Lana, she is quite a boring performer.

Don't want to waste my VIP pass time on that.

slowthai played the Forum in 2019

Time to bring back Battles, that's for sure

This + Bad Bunny as well, given the amount of people that showed up for J Balvin this year.

[ZXCVBNM]

Anyone else think Beyonce could headline? Would never have considered it before this year, but it would make sense after this year's line-up. Her sister has played three times at this point too so that might help?

If they want to meet her giant fee, she could play, as with almost every venue and festival. Sister not relevant really.

But would they want to book her? Can't deny that after Miley Bloody Cyrus, it's proof that they'll pretty much have anyone.

Would consume too much of the budget surely so for that reason I'd guess not.

[ZXCVBNM]

Yeah the Solange thing does't really make a difference, I'm just trying to think of as many reasons why it could happen as possible...Dunno about budget it is a pretty huge festival nowadays isn't it??

[Swanmob]

Tool anybody? Timings would probably fit pretty well considering the new album is just out (which is sensational btw!).

Not going to happen. Expensive AF and doesn't really fit Primavera anno 2020. 

[Chilly Toad]

Raphael Saadiq first album in years (tours Europe in October, though).

!!! (Chk Chk Chk) also with a new album, visit Sala Apolo in December.

The artists would fit, I think. Their touring schedules not, possibly.

[Olivedal 1904]

Feels like it's time to finally book Cult of Luna and Russian Circles this year. 

Both out with new material and no Spanish dates announced so far. Would be perfect for a late night set at Adidas stage.
