I also wonder if her booking this year was purely because they had to book her again after the 2019 cancellation? So her contract might be different than usual for a headliner. Seems unlikely, if they HAD to book her again then it would have been this year surely, she did European fests this summer. I really doubt thats a thing to be honest, especially 4 years on.

For the past few years, Boardmasters has been produced by Vision Nine but owned by Superstruct. Although it's all becoming a bit more assimilated as Superstruct took a majority stake in Vision Nine (and therefore also NASS) earlier this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don’t see something tomorrow with 3 weeks lead time to Christmas, I doubt we will see anything before the end of Jan / start of February.

I've seen big summer shows go on sale with a smaller window than that. Or at least waiting until after that rescheduled London O2 date. But we'll see. Maybe they'll wait, maybe they won't.

Jamie XX / Aphex Twin / Goldie or Four Tet would be the best guesses with other shows around the time. (Aphex is a shot in the dark to be fair).

Four Tet is doing 30k at ally pally with that light thing in May - feel like hes not impossible but a bit of a weird pick for APE given the circumstances. Jamie XX solo headlined it recently They seem to like doing a mix of young / old e.g. how it was like Peggy Gou and Folamour as big names - but then closed with Chems and Kraftwerk. Fred and Aphex would work for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hope is still Fred Again / Aphex Twin but I think it’s optimistic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again? I heard that they increased it from 40k to 50k last year (and it felt like it). I can't imagine 65k in that arena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthSaul Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 Skrillex is about in summer isn't he, maybe field day co-head. Some sort of Fred Again/ Four Tet/ Skrillex day would sell well i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
