Listening to the little preview of the upcoming single they're about to release, I am thinking that Foals in the Barn on the Thursday would be quite a great booking.

So what about Wilco and Marc Rebillet from the former lineup?

And do we have any chance, to see The Jesus and Mary Jane? Or Pavement for all the cancelled bands?

Don't think they will book Pavement upcoming year(s)

My experience in Ticketswap has been positive both times I have used it. Almost face value and legit tickets.

I've never been to Werchter but in Pukkelpop, also in Belgium, your ID is checked and if the name in the tickets is different from your ID you cannot enter to the festival.

Does Werchter have an official resale portal for those who can't attend and want to resell their tickets for face value? I missed out on the combi 4 day pass before it sold out so am looking for safest options to purchase now. I am coming from the US so don't want to risk buying g fake tickets.

Wilco is subbing for The National at Live is Live (June 17), and Marc Rebillet does not seem to play festivals this summer.

Watching the BRITs, how did RW miss out on Little Simz? That live performance was brilliant. Is she still due to play Couleur Café?

@Ken19 are the rumours correct that there will be a second Werchter Boutique and a second TW Classic? 

Seems time to be announced..

Those same rumours are saying we'll know about all Werchter day events before the end of February, so we'll see soon enough...

[ParanoidTourist]

Final names announced now (no one I have ever heard of). But also the timetable! 

[49Lawson]

Line up has been completed. I think it’s alright, but it’s very apparent that they’ve stretched themselves very thin with having as many Werchter events this year as they do. If you take everyone from that Nick Cave day and put them on this line up it would work out very nice.

Would imagine news of the second Classic is coming soon based on the wording of this tweet too… “The summer has even more to offer. ☀️ There’s @WBoutiqueFest with Stromae and Gorillaz on 19 June and @twclassic with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Placebo, The Smile and more on 25 June.  And... Rock Werchter has a surprise in store. Stay tuned for an exceptional encore... 👀”

Wonder what that "exceptional encore" is...

An extra day?

[polnico]

Turnstile vs Idles: why ? WHY ? WHY ?

[Floyd_Ams]

Publishing the timetable was nice!

I wonder why they announced that RW is completely sold out though. You can still buy tickets for Thursday...

[Gilgamesh69]

Rag n Bone Man above HAIM and Fontaines is fucking lame

Possibly a dance act after one of the headliners..?

Since they announced RW22 line up as complete, I think it's either additional day or additional Classic/Boutique

I think you are right. I guess it might be extra Classic/Boutique then. A full extra day for the festival requires a lot of more acts.

[polnico]

Great positive of the timetable: 1h30min of Jamie XX & Moderat. I was not expecting this, and it's great!

[Judithmt]

Very happy with SONS!

Yeah, that's by far the worst. At least it's partial but still sucks

Idles will do Kelechi and Wizz and walk of.

 

[Nicklord]

Also Sem Fender vs Lewis Capaldi. Don't they have pretty big overlap? I don't really care about that one but still doesn't seem like a good thing.

 

In general based on me watching it for 3 minutes I think I won't really have any big holes there at all

Looks like Thursday is also sold out then. I'll see at the last minute on Ticketswap.

That HAIM / Carly Rae Jepsen clash hurts. TWOD / Black Pumas is also unfortunate.
