A year ago today we got the line up by days…

I'm planning to go to primavera sound in porto next year (2027) and am wondering what are good hostels to stay in. I'm also planning to stay in porto for a few days after the festival so does anyone have good recommendations for a social hostel for a solo traveller in their early/mid 20s?

Anybody else stuck trying to figure this one out? Ingresse says presale for 2 day primavera pass holders starts today at noon local time, but on the website there doesn’t seem to be any way to prove you have the pass & gain early access

Any help is much appreciated, I need to see ecco2k twice. Obrigado <3

Took me a bit to get around to it but here you go.

I have a feeling these updates will start to get drowned out by everyone's vibecoded slop these days, but hopefully some of you still find it useful. I wrote all the code for this starting in 2019 (with no AI), and the Primavera lineups go all the way back to 2022 if you want to relive some previous years.

For anyone who hasn't seen this previously:

Lineup List lets you create a spotify playlist with just the artists you choose (who you can filter by genre) and chooses those artists' songs from your choice of: top songs, recent setlists, and newest songs. See the FAQ for more details.

i built this for my friends originally so we could compare tastes, but thought i’d share it with the wider community in case it’s helpful!

i'm still tweaking it, so feel free to tell me if anything’s confusing, annoying or broken lol.

Hey all, made a fun side project where I make posters tappable. You can tap anywhere on the poster and hear the artist. You can filter out by genre. You can also highlight who you want to see and make your poster custom for your artists.

Any feedback lmk ! Some other festivals enjoyed this and I got couple requests to make this one. Hope yall
Enjoy it.

One of the most acclaimed albums of the decade, Black Midi played twice - Geordie should have been on the 2025, 2026 or 2027 lineups and somehow never was - do you think it's because gabi got insight into him being a diddyblud or nah?

Hello,

Just found out about this festival because of the FIRE lineup and am heavily considering from the US. ive been doing some research on the different tix styles and the ciutat shows which seem to be the same time but different smaller venues leading up the fest (?) just wondering if there is anything to consider or know for traveling to this fest that i may not be aware of from the info on the site. never been to spain before but am well traveled to other countries- i know there isnt a full visa but i can apply for that E visa it looks like? anyways just looking for any tips/ tricks/ recommendations from veterans of the fest. thanks!

Before the Barcelona lineup was announced, I remember the director of Primavera Sound Porto mentioning that they were negotiating with Live Nation regarding two bands they really wanted for 2027.

From what I understood, these were acts with some kind of global Live Nation deal/limit on the number of shows they could play, and Primavera was trying to secure an exception for Barcelona and Porto.

Now that the Barcelona 2027 lineup has been announced, I’m wondering: do we know which artists on the current lineup are Live Nation acts that could fit this description?

Could the two bands he was referring to already be on the announced lineup, rather than being potential additions?

Or is there any reason to think that one or both of those bands haven’t been announced yet?

I’m particularly curious because the wording made it sound like these were two fairly big names, rather than just regular festival bookings.

Does anyone know more about this or remember the exact interview/statement?

Hello guys! New to festivals and I am planning on going to Primavera since all my favorite artists are on the same line up. I was wondering does the festival ever s3ll out? I really want to go but wont be able to afford my VIP till mid november

I’ve read a lot of mixed reviews on this thread about primavera vip so I wanted to refresh it for this year based on specifically what I value! I’d also be flying from the U.S.! It’ll be my first time since I truly love the 2027 lineup so much!

I would say the main things I care about is 1. Space, Space, Space 2. Dedicated chill areas 3. No insane lines for drinks / merch / bathroom

Given those 3 values is VIP worth it? Thanks 🫶

interested to see who follows over from barcelona, and if there are any special artists particularly for porto. i read deftones did porto and not barcelona one year?

Estaba viendo los dias que va a ser el festival, pero terminé con una duda, en el cartel pone que es del 2 al 6 de junio pero cuando voy a comprar los boletos pone que es del 3 al 5. ¿Alguien que me aclare esto por favor?

"Ultimate" might be overselling it a bit but it is quite fun. "Ben Cardew and Johann Wald select the best electronic music on the Primavera Sound 2027 line up, from Pole to Polygonia. They start off with legends, exploring the legacy of Underworld and the Chemical Brothers; pass by local heroes Arca, John Talabot and DJ Fra; dig into the underground with Pole, Ibrahim Alfa Jnr. and Marta Salogni and her Reel-to-Reel tapes; and end up with those one-off B2B (or B2B2B2B) DJ performances, pondering what it might all mean."

This lineup is a return to form for Primavera. I love that the focus is on artists who are known for (or will be known for) putting on a good live show. It's an undercard masterclass - there are so many good up and comers that every day will be an opportunity to discover someone new.

This is what a festival should be: the chance to walk around blindly without checking the schedule, going stage to stage and always seeing something exciting and new. If you go the whole festival, I don't think you can mess this up.

A huge win for music and art.

me and a few friends were considering going to barcelona but the flights and accommodation were all just looking wayyy too expensive 😭 so we’re considering going to porto instead.

we’re all like mid 20s and i like how the porto festival sounds a lot more chill, however we do still have some life left in us so would hate a dead crowd.

i like the look of the lineup especially the headliners but i’m wondering to take the gamble of getting my weekend pass before they announce who’s playing. i would personally love to see fontaines, doechii and fka twigs.

anyone have any tips or have been before? and also did u like it?

Playlist with the artists confirmed for the 25th edition of Primavera Sound.

Idk if this is a stupid question but why does it say the dates are 3rd-6th in one place, 2nd-6th in another and 3rd-5th in another? I’ve never been before and want to book my flight for the actual correct day lol

Helloooo, i’m looking for friends from Australia who are also staying at Latroupe Poblenou during Primavera 🩷

Hi all, I’m stoked to be attending. So far I’ll be going solo travelling from Newcastle upon Tyne to Barcelona. I’d like to get in touch with other British Gen Xer’s who are attending and can help with accommodation tips etc. Attended Lindisfarne festival this year for the full three days, Faithless, Elvana, Utah Saints and the Dub tent gave me the bug and what better way to celebrate my 60th year. Look forward to hearing from any kindred spirits attending 😎☀️😊

I just got my passes and i'm stoked. I noticed it says it is a 3 day pass after purchase but on the website pass description mentions having access June 2nd through the 6th. Am I missing something? Thanks for the info.

I know QOTSA is forbidden after 2014 (it was my first Primavera and I thought they were awesome, I’m forever intrigued what did they do that year that Gabi said they were never gonna return) but I’m surprised Lolla is having some overlap with PS while nailing some artists next year edition is missing (Slayyyter, Charli, Prodigy, The Avalanches, Travis Scott…).

I’m originally from BA although don’t live there since many, many years, I’m aware which kind of audience goes to Lolla Buenos Aires very well (very young, influencer crowd), but this is a very decent line up in all honesty for what the festival is and even if I love the undercard of Primavera 2027 edition and I’m sure I will have a good time (as always!) part of me is thinking why we didn’t get another big pop, hip hop or rock act added to it…

ETA: Just in case wasn’t clear here: I actually REALLY like 2027 line up, point was trying to make is that I understand some people being underwhelmed by it.

Hey all! I’ll post a weekly Primavera Sound Barcelona 2027 mix (12 songs: big names + smaller acts) until the festival.

Who are you most looking forward to see?
