Cala Mijas 2023

[xxialac]

Remembering that last year had Nick Cave, Chemical Brothers and Kraftwerk *on one day*.
 

They’ve gone backwards…

Loving some Nu Genea, Playback Maracas and La Élite.

that thursday is packed and probably worth the money on its own!

My final feeling here is that if not for the leaks we still wouldn’t have the new wave of bands in the line up. But the question seeing the line up now is… why?!

I still hope they are giving the final touches to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and M83 contract and that they will finally be included in CalaMijas (hope of a fool I know…)

Well they need bands for the next announcement and I'm sure they will be in that.

IF there a nect announcement, and that’s a big IF.

Still thinking and no clue what was all this time waiting about?

My only theory is that they wanted to free the new poster of Kalorama and Calamijas at the same time and were trying to sign a big headliner for Kalorama instead of The Strokes, and until they got Aphex we’ve been in the dark here.

If we were going to get Yeah Yeah Yeahs and M83 we would have got them on that poster.

I’m afraid that’s the terrible and only truth

Wasn't Cave last year announced really late, June or something?

Don't get me wrong, I consider this lineup finished bar any late cancellations, but wouldn't mind a late surprise.

Also there's no Mumford and Sons, which is a huge plus.

[DarthSaul]

In my head Kalorama was the little brother of Mijas and when i booked Kalorama I was okay with getting maybe 75% of the Mijas lineup, so its interesting to see how its gone the other way.

nick cave was announced in june, but according to that poster it is already complete, last year in june more than 20 artists were announced

[Daniel Comino Royuela]

I think that the point of view here should be, what would I prefer… The Strokes and Moderat, or the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs and M83? 

The answer here is the only thing releasing today’s pain… 😂😓

I dont see us getting any new names at all now (other than replacements for acts that drop out).

[TheFullShaboo]

There's another announcement planned for Kalorama, so im assuming there'll be another for Cala Mijas. 

From a quick glance on their socials it seems both festivals mirrored one another with its announcements last year and theres nothing to indicate that this year will be any different.

The insta for Kalorama says more acts to be announced. So I’m hoping that’s going to be the same for Mijas. Also this is the second wave of announcements but there were three last year? (Not including Nick Cave) I’m not very hopeful but a slim chance?

Says full line up now on their Instagram. 

[xxialac]

I don’t see more names as Kalorama has expanded, Kalorama says more to come (unlike CM) and apparently someone has added up the names and same as total last year.

[Florence2010]

Insta is out… it says full line up 💔💔💔😭😭

[96fba]

Seems they’ve deleted it?

[Florence2010]

It’s back up and is getting slated. 

[Sarahw2]

I thought the electronics would be a lot better. Don't think il bother going the Friday it's very weak for me. It is a great festival for anyone that hasn't been before and you will have a ball no matter what!

[xxialac]

I’m going to sack off at least one of the days now. 

Can’t believe 5 months of waiting…for these names.

I bought tickets on the strength of the first announcement and I’ll get over it and have a great time. It’s just a bit disappointing after waiting so long and then seeing Kalorama last night….

100 percent agree

[xxialac]

Yeah, couldn't agree more. My fault for assuming Kalorama and Cala Mijas were going to be the same and it's too late to switch to the former.
