Especially if you turn up early to the larger venues, I expect few problems. I guess thats true for mid-week, Sunday is a different story- 1st weekend goers that stays + locals on the weekend. I think Beck and Little Simz are going to be hard to get into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeit Poble Espanyol is massive (vastly bigger than Apolo where the Sunday parties have always been) so getting there earlier or with priority access should be fine.

Also the strongest Ciutat day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaalive Posted May 10, 2022 Report Share Posted May 10, 2022 Also a non-ciutatat take: since when is Mitski late announcement ruled out? She has Istanbul on May 21 and UK from June 11, so is basically free and in Europe for most of PS dates. Also has no Spanish dates. Pretty big and surely Primavera-type act.

So you can’t smuggle alcohol in as easily? Just can’t get my head around it. I was once told that it’s for health and safety purposes. Stand on a lid-less bottle on the ground and it collapses under foot. Stand on one full of liquid or air and, if you catch it right, you’re back flipping in seconds. I’ve never checked out the validity of this but I kind of makes sense? I always assumed it was to prevent them being thrown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is a format unique to PS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(sorry, I'm sure this has been asked before, I can't find a definitive answer though) My assumption is they will lock off entry between Apolo 1 and 2. At club nights you can walk freely between them but when I go to gigs there it's all locked off in between. They will definitely not let you walk freely between Razz 1 and 2. They have completely separate entrances and they know Razz 2 is going to be absolutely slammed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
