During the second half of August and the first one of September there will be more festivals than international artists on tour 😅

Don't think it's the artist that's the problem, it's the stage builders, They've got a summers worth of work crammed into a month lol

Great name. He's got an excellent live reputation. 

He'll probably headline Lowlands but I can't see him do that at Pukkelpop. Not even in a (post-)pandemic year.

Expecting some of them, if PKP is going ahead 🤞

[DDave]

Foals back in play. 

I'd take all them.

Suddenly lots of options are appearing, a lot who were linked last year. London Grammar is a cert from what Ken was saying.

Others, like Jorja Smith, Loyle Carner, Jamie XX, Whitney, Bombay Bicycle Club, Bicep, were all originally scheduled for Rock Werchter. Let's see what happens...

Some of the bands mentioned above, are playing Werchter this summer normally. But London Grammar is Pukkelpop indeed.

Can see Netsky and Paul Kalkbrenner being there. Been a few years since Netsky played I think.

They can still build a solid poster, with all the names around

Interesting - Down the Rabbit Hole has moved its dates to the week after Lowlands and is sharing the same site as well. Noise curfew in place so silent disco from 11pm. That's a bit pants.

More bands in the mix for Pukkelpop though

RW and PKP are trying to plan something similar to what Lowlands and DTRH announced, are they?

Pukkelpop already had a big part of the line up ready before RW moved to the end of august. DTRH is depending on RW for a majority of their acts, so it was very logic that they moved with them.

I was told that they'd already had a very high proportion of acts booked for 2020 even before the 1st names dropped. Assuming most of those have just rolled over to this year's, barring possibly some non European bands?

Does anyone know if Pukkelpop tickets are sold out, or they didn't even start to sell to 2021 edition?

They didn’t even start to sell the 2020 edition tickets.
