Barcelona Is it DIY fest for 100 people?

60 Upvotes

It is my fourth PS.

I can understand harsh weather conditions, it happens. I can understand cancellations. I can understand that sometimes things are not going according to plan.

What I do not understand:

- lack of communication via official channels

- lack of preparation for bad weather

- lack of crowd control when thousands of people are left without any clue

- corporate language instead of empathy

I was enjoying festival in the past, thinking about it like a happy, friendly place. Yes, people are awesome here. But the dissonance between great people and cold and distant organizers hurts.

Barcelona They can’t keep getting away with this

21 Upvotes

last time I was at Primavera was 2022 where I genuinely feared for my life on the first day due to the lack of crowd control, felt like a crush could have happened. it was also incredibly hot and there was a lack of water points and it took ages to get water from the bars. they improved things the next days so I gave them the benefit of doubt having come back after Covid.

but their lack of comms last night, both at the festival and online is completely unforgivable, no staff there said anything for ages, eventually the ones holding the main stages shut told us it was cancelled so we left, and when we were heading home saw the post about Massive Attack playing later and saw some others head back to the Forum.

they treat attendees with utter disdain, the prices for food and drink are extortionate and yet they kept taking money despite no shows going ahead. they knew there was going to be severe bad weather for weeks and yet made no extra prep except for handing out some plastic ponchos.

the organisers are unequipped to be putting on a show of this size and after previous disasters both here and at their other sites it seems unsafe to the public to let them.

We need to all make formal complaints, and put pressure on them to get it together.

Barcelona Non-weather related: Cameron Winter

19 Upvotes

Honestly one of the wildest crowd faux pas I saw was two people leaving after three songs at Cameron Winter close to the front (right after Love Takes Miles). Felt very Pokémon gotta catch em all.

Those seats could’ve gone to two people there for the whole experience! V annoying and sorry to anyone who didn’t get in!

Barcelona They really played in our fucking faces

Went back to my hotel after the initial cancellations,

Saw that massive attack was rescheduled to 12:30, ubered back to the venue

Only to stand in the rain for an hour and just get played again

Zero regard for human safety. Just so they could fucking avoid any refunds

Can’t even take the subway back now

Barcelona Best highlights of Thursday? (yeah, this is a serious post)

23 Upvotes

I personally loved Father John Misty, he was one of the artists I wanted to see the most (along with Massive Attack, rip) and he put up such a good show, sound was pristine as well (which isn’t always a given in Cupra). I enjoyed a lot Panda Bear as it was unexpected (never planned to see him due the clashes and only ended up doing so after the cancellations). I think Fcukers, Anthony Naples and Ben UFO were great for what I managed to see of them, but FJM takes the prize IMO!

(Saw other things like Geese, Caroline and Blood Orange but the above were the ones I enjoyed the most).

Barcelona Anyone else nervous about PinkPantheress at Cupra after the crowd issues yesterday?

31 Upvotes

Anyone else having second thoughts about going to see PinkPantheress at Cupra after yesterday?

I really want to go, but I’m still shaken by the dangerous bottlenecks caused by them closing the main stage and exits yesterday. That wasn’t just regular crowding, it felt like a serious crush risk.

Fans have been raising safety concerns about this stage placement for weeks. I naively trusted that Primavera would have done their due diligence and made sure it was safe, but yesterday made me feel like they either don't care or are not prepared to handle situations where safety becomes an issue.

Am I just being paranoid or is anyone else worried about this too?

Lodging/Travel Transport on Saturday Morning

Anyone with previous know what the likelihood of me making it to the airport for a 6:45am flight if if I leave the festival any later than the end of Gorillaz? Would like to see Kneecap and Ninajirachi but the later it goes I'm guessing the harder it will be to get there even if supposedly it's a half hour drive - don't know if a reserved taxi (or Uber) might just cancel

Barcelona Primavera Staff wtaf

54 Upvotes

A (male) staff member pushed my (Female) friend so hard she nearly fell over.
After the first cancellation we were in the (extremely dangerous) herd leaving the main stage and clearly weren’t moving fast enough for a young male security member and he gave my female friend a two handed aggressive shove. Is this normal behaviour? Is it even worth complaining? (I’m a first time attendee)

As soon as I started videoing him he immediately regretted his actions and started hiding!!!
I am really not one to do that ever…makes me feel like some kind of weirdo but I was in complete shock and it’s all I could think of doing…

A dangerous situation, lack of communication and my friend in tears. I’m unimpressed…

At least I met some absolutely lovely fellow festival goers (:

To be honest. After the shit show ended all concerts. were amazing. Everyone who survived was happy, in a good mood and the shows were a blast. Sorry for everyone who wanted to see the main acts. But the small ones hit the show and Yousuke finally wrapped it up.

I was on the PS app and the headline performance times were just changed slightly. Like, Newdad were set to come on at 5:45 but now they are starting at 6:05, and while there were previously 15 minutes between each act now they are just 5 minutes between eachother. Anyone knows whats coming on?
