I've done loads of UK festivals before, but that's it. I know very little about Prima aside from the lineup etc. Hit me with your advice! It gets cold at night Don't peak at 7pm Sneak in water bottle lids Don't chat through sets Buy snacks from the big shopping centre over the road and bring them in, it's allowed! Try not to spend all your time in the soulless main stage area Watch acts Have fun 1 2 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First tip is don’t call it Prima, just as no one in Manchester calls it Manch! :)) Biggest tip by far is to get the most comfortable shoes you can find. Cannot emphasise this enough. Your feet will thank you! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant remember the exact name of it but remember seeing Yves Tumor there in 2018 and it being one of the highlights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harryy Posted May 17, 2022 Report Share Posted May 17, 2022 Also to add to the hype, I can rarely find good pics of Primavera and going for the first time - wondered if any goers had some good pics from previous years to build the excitement / bridge the gap until schedule chaos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a place that requires a walkaround as soon as you arrive to get your bearings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenG92 Posted May 17, 2022 Report Share Posted May 17, 2022 Which days are people anticipating the most painful losses for? Given you can probably see 8 acts from 7pm-6am, for weekend 1 there's 14, 19 and 15 acts on those days respectively that I'd like to see, so W1 Friday is gonna be a real killer for me. Probably won't catch 60% of the acts I wanna see that day. Rough, but testament to just how stacked things age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrophobia Posted May 17, 2022 Report Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) Honestly, its getting ridicolously late with the schedule... It would be nice if they'd at least let us know, when its gonna come. Edited May 17, 2022 by Quadrophobia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah mate, activate it (can no longer trade it) and then you should have the option to send it to AccessTicket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
