birchtree29 Posted May 2 Report Share Posted May 2 It's sad to see that Mad Cool cannot book IFEMA two years in a row but a brand new festival with no history can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karlos12345 Posted May 2 Report Share Posted May 2 This might be another part of IFEMA and maybe less capacity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the issue with Mad Cool is that they are owned by the same people who own the new site? IFEMA has redevelopment plans, so assume they had to move at some point. If the idea was to give them somewhere to host lost term, cut costs by owning their own site at a cheaper location,, and also to make money from other events, then moving makes sense. Even if IFEMA is still available, once the decision is made, it's unlikely to be worth going back. If they've invested in the new site, then they'll have a huge incentive to make it work long term. And let's not forget that they got a hell of a lot of criticism for some of the IFEMA based festivals, so if we're being generous, they do have the ability to learn 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, they were kicked from that parcel next to IFEMA that will be used as part or the upcoming F1 track. Sure they invested in the new location and own 49% of it but this is the main reason why they moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just_one Posted May 28 Report Share Posted May 28 Thinking of going by car from lisbon because the pearl jam & keane combo is just to good to pass. Got a couple of questions if anyone can help me. 1 - Pearl jam will headline the main stage , are keane also playing the main stage or they might be relegated to some b stage at the same time as pearl jam? 2 - how is the go back from the festival? Is it safe to take the car or are there are buses /cab/ uber after the festival? Im trying to find an hotel so that would be great to know.

Quote WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY WRISTBAND IF I LIVE IN EUROPE? Between the months of May and June. If you have any questions about your order, you can contact directly pulseras@madcool.es WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY WRISTBAND IF I LIVE OUTSIDE OF EUROPE? If you reside outside of Spain and Europe, you will be able to pick up your wristband at the festival entrance. We will inform you through our channels about where this point will be located. https://madcoolfestival.es/faqs I think you are better of sending them a mail if they haven't been delivered mid june and you ask them to just pick them in the entrance (though you may have to face some long queues for it).

They love drama with their festivals here in Spain. I really want them to move it from Vilaverde. Its a dump and last year was not enjoyable. I do have tickets this year though....
