I have no clue what is going on, but whatever the case, it is never ever a good idea not to say anything. A few lines of what and when things are approx. to be announced would have sufficed. Bad news is better than no news. Bought tickets anyway, but this radiosilence is causing your event a lot of harm. They've communicated on specific news channels about it, see Dutch version below: Quote Internationale line-up "Net omdat de vraag naar tickets zo groot was, zijn we al gestart vóór de line-up helemaal afgeklopt was", gaat Luyten verder. "Daar wordt op dit moment de laatste hand aan gelegd, dus dat zit er aan te komen. Het wordt een zeer goeie line-up van internationale allure, met zowel binnenlandse en buitenlandse kleppers. Door de coronamaatregelen die binnen Europa verschillen van land tot land was het soms moeilijk onderhandelen, vandaar dat die line-up een beetje vertraging heeft opgelopen."

DDave Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 70% of Combis sold without a line up. That's impressive. Gonna be tricky bagging tickets if you're not Belgian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archi Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 I hate this. Announce without at least 1 name. I'd love to attend a festival this Summer but I won't pay before any confirmations. In their message in Dutch, they explain the line-up is not fully confirmed yet. No prob. But they could announce a first part already.

But yeah, I understand that there are still a few things to be done but why not have announced a few names, a headliner, at least a little teaser... I can't take it anymore !

johnybegood Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 If you are not belgian, instead of a combiticket you will have to pay 3 single day tickets. (more than 300€). Mahassine style... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd like to have confirmation of the line-up to know if I do 3 days or 1 days. And the major part of the people don't look at other festivals or forums to know the line-up. They just wait the official announcement. I gonna wait. And if the line-up is good enough, I'll try to get tickets on Ticketswap 🙃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken19 Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Couple of nice names, but not really satisfied with the PKP line up overall. But that is my opinion. Some important names (for me) have got their name of the list. 😢 A lot of Belgian artists taking important spots. Maybe I was expecting too much with Lowlands/DTRH close by. Normally we will know it one of the next days. It was not the intention to start the ticket sales with any name, but know they are not looking good (like it is all about the money).

Doesn't sound promising. Marquee names any good? think that was the stage I was most concerned about. Sounds like no Dua Lipa either.

gigi21 Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Really curious to know if and how the crowd will be different from usual one. And also how much secondary ticketing will work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jochen Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 I'm 25 and i know a lot of people my age (and a bit older) going to pkp for the first time in years. So maybe it will change a bit indeed because a lot of RW and Dour visitors will attend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But marquee is one of the things that disappoints me. But! This is my personal opinion. You can find me most of the time in the marquee/club.

I'm assuming the vast majority of the line up is done. Maybe the strong ticket sales will allow for a decent Marquee band or 2 to be added soon. Surprised about the main stage comment given what bands are around. Edited June 16, 2021 by DDave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDave Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Without giving names away, @ken19 can I assume one of the days is more of a 'rock' day than the others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDave Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 (edited) Kaoss from the festileaks board has added Foals and Peggy Gou to the leaked list. I'd be very happy with both, especially Peggy Gou. Edited June 16, 2021 by DDave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r55N Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Unlike the lineups for 2022, this year we pretty much know what bands are willing and available to play in that time window. Pukkelpop most likely will share names with Reading and Lowlands... Liam, BMTH, Stormzy, Denzel Curry etc... not bad names and considering the dry summer we're having, it'll be а great event for most (me included). Even if Combi tickets sold out, I'm willing to buy day tickets and fly to Belgium for that. I managed to get tickets for Reading, but I'm still cautious as UK prolonged the restrictions. Even if they lift them I could have to quarantine + pay hundreds of pounds for PCRs. If Pukkelpop happens to be the my only festival experience - I'll take it even if I frankenstein the Combi with day tickets or try the second market and pay more. (I'm tired of getting excited for events 12 months away...) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
