Pet Shop Boys are a much bigger act than any previous closer (albeit admittedly also playing Weds). I believe they won't, same as last year's cuitat. Anyway you can see Pet Shop Boys at the opening day. Btw, was it full in the previous years? Do you need to queue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 40 days or so after the line-up release I actually understand how Skrillex or Halsey are in line with the Primavera "brand". The only name I really don't get is Calvin Harris. Even today it seems as misplaced as the day they released the line-up. I can kinda get what is Calvin Harris doing here, the main question for me is Måneskin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-pandemic it was usually easy to get in, as long as you got there earlyish (or had VIP). But Ciutat appears now to be much more popular. Or perhaps last year was a one-off, hard to know. Anyway they are going to do pre-reservations for Ciutat. A real risk people will get Sunday tickets and then not turn up as too tired/other plans/need to work the next day.

If you have been 10 times, you will know that there are practically no Hungarians at Sziget. The Crowd was packed with international (and young) people.

At some campsites/stages/gigs it feels like there are next to no Hungarians, but if you then go and see Goran Bregovic, you realize there are quite some locals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etaish Posted January 18, 2023 Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 Slightly off topic. Anyone have up to date foodie recommendations for Barcelona? Disfrutar is already booked out for the entire weekend of the festival and I see that Albert Adria has closed down all of his restaurants other than Enigma (but that's only available in the evenings and therefore less relevant). Cheers in advance for any good up to date leads (on any point in the price range)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went there last year and it was a blast, even though they just had opened! Will go there there this year again. Also got a Michelin star! You can maybe check out Compartir (the casual place from the Disfrutar guys). Haven't been there yet, but want to check it out this year.
