pne094 Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) Jesus, Primavera Instagram is a blood bath right now. Just hundreds upon hundreds of people beyond angry because of drinking queues++. The bars has always been a comedy at Primavera, but unfortunately this seems to be the edition where it finally fell apart. And I experienced the 2012-crisis where the cashless cards didnt work and almost nobody got any drinks the first day of the festival. It also sucks that they seemingly has sold too many tickets this year. Queues are one thing, but Im reading posts where people are afraid because of lack of crowd control, even going to the toilets are dangerous Im going next week, but my expectations are mediocre right now. Stay safe everyone, hope you get to enjoy tonight, and that some of the problems are fuxed for day 2.

Rhak Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Feels like there wasn’t enough weight on the main stage to take the off the heat elsewhere. Or am I mistaken and was it busy there as well up and till now? Anyways. Apart from the sketchy stuff at Sharon (witnessed it myself. That right hand side entrance is too narrow and the stage is moved up which is stupid) I believe the grounds can handle the crowd. The bars however can’t. You could just have more personnel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montag Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Sounds like a shitshow tonight. Does anyone know how many extra tickets they’re doing per day? I know they increased. Will have the day next week where all the Strokes tickets roll over from W1 to W2 as well. Let everyone take in 6 cans each for the rest of the days!

You could just have more personnel I think that might be it. Got a beer in five minutes during Kacey Musgraves while the bar near the entrance took us nearly an hour.

Fleetwood_Mac_And_Cheese Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Honestly never again. Really enjoying the acts but the queues and fucking crowds are horrendous. Don't feel safe and sortve shitting it going to a smaller stage for gecs. Never again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_89 Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Bar is excellent at Bits area, where they are tapping beer before people order. Hope they do this everywhere tomorrow. Also Rina is killing it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know she's done her voice but it seemed to rely completely on the stage show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Music Girl Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 All the acts we've seen have been amazing but the general organisation (getting into Auditori for us) and the bar queues have really tainted it. Couldn't really be arsed smuggling stuff in but will definitely have to try tomorrow. You basically have to miss a whole set to buy a small drink.

badsandwich Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 panicking quite a bit thinking about how many extra people will be there for the strokes next friday. really want to see the smile above all else that day but the strokes finishing half an hour before they start, with the potential of fan crossover trying to get into the rayban area is really making me worry.

Glenn Coco Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 The traffic between leaving Mordor, and everyone trying to get in is ridiculous. The crowd management is invisible this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
