Think it’s a missed opportunity. Btw I was just looking at tickets for this, as both albums are among my favourite ever and I had considered flying to NYC… not under $230 per ticket.. fuck dynamic pricing ey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are better off flying to DC where they are playing in a much better venue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack.194 Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 Are the names announced all there will be? Or will more be announced closer to the festival? If so, I’m guessing the names announced closer to the festival will be smaller names? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whos3000_ Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 flights from Italy (2nd June is a national holiday) are crazy (300 €+ if you want to limit your stay to the weekend. Last year I paid something like 100 euro for a/r ). Wondering if it’s worth waiting for a decrease of the prices getting a bit closer to the time or if it’s inflation and that’s it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeit a much smaller wave. Sometimes it's associated with an extra stage tied to a sponsor, other times it's to cover replacements and extra acts. That being said these announcement never normally include very large acts. More mid to lower tier acts. It's normally around April time so plenty of time to wait still sadly.

Some airlines only publish their flights 5/6 months in advance so take a look in January and if it hasn't gone down, I'd say it's unlikely they ever go down.

Valbork Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 For anyone struggling with Barcelona flight prices, it is worth knowing that the French train company Ouigo (Es) now run fast budget trains between Barcelona and Madrid. Prices can be as low as 9 euros one way depending on times and popularity. Journey is under 2 hours, website is pretty easy to use and I've found them to be reliable. Could give you a few more options,( i.e. flying in and out of Madrid) if time is not too pressing 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clasher Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 High speed rail in Spain is great, had only good experience the couple of times I used renfe. Flying to Madrid or Valencia and then train is certainly a good and cheaper alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good that the http://essaypapers.reviews/ service will help me with this! Now I am sure that I will go to the fest! Thanks for sharing!

Whos3000_ Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Got my flights, I’m on board! 200+150 (flights) +200 (accomodation) € has become rather expensive, though. You get the feeling that festival-going is becoming more and more elitist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the agile beast Posted January 4, 2023 Report Share Posted January 4, 2023 what are peoples thoughts on there being cheap tickets floating around just before the festival this year? i managed to get ones for 40 euro for primavera 22 - was that a fluke because of people having tickets left over from the covid cancelled years or did it happen the previous years as well?

Basically every year tickets are available. It's not like Glastonbury where tickets are gold dust. The 2023 lineup is not being received as well as previous years so I reckon it won't sell out. I'm honestly not sure if that will result in secondary market tickets being cheaper or more expensive than usual in the lead up to the festival. Last years was sold out and yet people got tickets cheaper than I remember happening in 2018 or 2019 - although the 2 weekends may have played a part in the prices this year as well.

Skrillex is releasing another track today with PinkPantheress and Trippie Redd. Also can't wait till Baby Again is coming out (his track with Four Tet and Fred). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whos3000_ Posted January 5, 2023 Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 what kind of set will skrillex play? just a dj set full of hits or a proper live set (interludes, visuals, a sort of narrative and so on)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polnico Posted January 6, 2023 Report Share Posted January 6, 2023 With Fred Again.., Four Tet and Skrillex currently doing b2b2b sets in London, I think there's a chance a secret set of the 3 of them could be planned on the 2nd day.

SwallowOrSleepOnTheWetSpot Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 Any new cool lineup discoveries y'all care to share?

His sets are much more befitting of more contained spaces. Same as when Jamie XX agreed to fill in for Frank Ocean on the main stage - this really didn't compliment his set either.

Fred already played Cupra this year, and Tous and Binance would likely be overrun with crowd bottlenecks. Main Stage is really the only way.
