Obviously no guarantees but in all previous editions they've been on consecutive weekends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riseupandkill Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 we're even too early for hotels near the fest site to have opened their bookings for next year, as far as i can see... i'm so eager Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much every line quotable.. i just couldn't believe how much good, memorable stuff was in a single episode. anyway, off topic. i nearly got over excited and booked an apartment near the fest site for next june. probably best to hold fire for a bit i think. at least until i know if pavement are playing.

Can't really find anything that's possible to book, yet. there's some on hotels.com, but mostly apartments, and the prices for the hotels that are available are very high. Like flights, booking over a year in advance is usually going to be almost as high as it gets. Sweet spot is usually about 6-9months in advance.

Have booked stuff around august-september the last years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jannybruck Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 Yeah there's absolutely no reason anyone should be booking accommodation now. You'll get much better prices later in the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's an Airbnb isn't there always a risk that they bump you when they realise there's more money to be made? Always puts me off using Airbnb for events...

xxialac Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 A bit glass half empty perhaps but can't help but think that a Primavera Sound a short time after getting back to normal would have felt like an enormous celebration. It really would have been the best Primavera ever. By next June in 15 months' time I suspect the thrill and novelty of having a normal life will have worn off.

Primavera will be my first festival abroad since all of this and going through those gates, watching whoever the fuck is first on and chilling with a gin and Fanta lemon will be utter bliss. I cannot wait. Edited March 2, 2021 by FloorFiller 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
