LOL u gotta be kidding right?

 

Florence is way bigger than lorde

[Hailhail]

In my opinion for main stage on last day will be:

 

Buraka Som Sistema (after hours closing festival)

Florence & The Machine main headliner

Lorde

act 2

Act 1 or only act

Teddy Swims is likely below Lorde with Pixies opposite Florence.

You are right…forgot Teddy as first or even second act below Lorde…but Pixies  they’re playing in Heineken stage probably at the same hour as Florence

[charlierc]

How many more names per day we likely to see?

[Hailhail]

Usually are 4 bands for NOS stage & 7 for Heineken!

Obrigado.

 

So I assume a few days are closer to that than others. The 10th is the one that looks sparsest so far.

Foo Fighters

TBC

Wolf Alice

I would imagine, though I could see Wolf Alice opening possibly. Will be interesting as the NOS stage is pretty strong on the other days, Flo, Lorde, Teddy is (for me at least) a hell of a line up.

Well I can guess Mad Cool can give us clues as to who's around if nothing else. 

[Hailhail]

for my personal taste I wish it were:

 

Foo Fighters

APC

Kasabian

Wolf Alice

A perfect Circle plays on the 10th in Madrid, so they won't play on the same day as Foo Fighters.

As they've seemingly got everyone it's quite likely lol. See what Werchter do next week to halt the purchase and flight on the 20th. They might surprise but I feel like they might end up in a position of not knowing what they are and what they cater to. Mad Cool at least was always an all round so you can't expect much else. Nos have at least left the Sam Smiths behind although Anyma wasn't good for a top level booking.

Kasabian is a decent shout there. Not sure if they would just go 100% rock on the day though so me thinking chuck The Black Crowes and Kasabian in there for

Foo Fighters

Kasabian

Black Crowes
Wolf Alice

 

Selfishly, I'd like that.

Feel like if you've got Foos as your headline act that 100% rock has a logic to it. 

 

Although tbf David Byrne or Pulp would be fun to bring over from those in Madrid on the Saturday. 

 

Kasabian feel like theyd be a shout too tbf. 

[TheNewUnion]

Pulp would be great. Byrne could be a shout, but he is playing in Cascais that week so I wonder if he would play two shows within a couple of days in basically the same area. I'd not complain if he did though.

I thnik that Byrne is completly out from Nos Alive.

Pulp indeed would be great, but they are playing Mad Cool at 11/07, so to be in NOS Alive it should be at 9/7, and im not seeing Pulp playing so early because Nick Cave and 21 Pilots will be the 2 final slots in the main stage.

Perhaps headlining the Heineken stage?

Wolf Alice has top line billing at Mad Cool, can't see them open the stage

Yeah, unless there was like two rotating outdoor main stages it's hard to see. They only select where they fancy MC have given them the booking.

I would prefer 1000 times Pulp + Nick Cave... but 21 pilots, apart from Foo Fighters, are probably the band with more people demanding them in the social media, so i guess it was a no brainer for NOS Alive to choose

I was hoping MC were going to nick The Cure too. Foos, Florence, TOP and KOL below plus The Cure and Pup would have instantly made me drop Werchter out my ideas. But if they do that you might not even get a ticket haha. That would probably be up there with the best ever lineups in Europe of all time.

Indeed…David Byrne will perform at the Ageas Cooljazz festival on July 14, 2026.

I think they forgot to post in on Social media (at least there is nothing on Instagram and facebook). 

But it is on their webiste.
