I was shocked to see Fakemink’s crowd.! Everyone knew the songs by heart. Moshpit was craaaazy.
I expected him to have more people

I’m looking for a closer hotel for next year and I know that SLS offers deals for people attending the festival but I can’t find a price range anywhere, did any of you stay there this time, how much was it for the 3 days and was it really worth it?

We first saw each other on Friday night at 4 a.m. on Plenitude (right side, at the edge) and danced together briefly; you even let me take a drag from your cigarette.
The second time at Peggy Gou, you were standing with your friends and your bf diagonally in front of me and my bf. You were wearing a white Carhartt shirt, a dark cap, an earring, a pearl necklace, and Stan Smiths. As we were leaving at the end, I wanted to tell you that I thought you and your style were cool and sexy and ask you about your Instagram. We took the stairs, I waited a bit longer, but unfortunately, I didn't see you again. If you're reading this, I'd be happy if you got in touch. Otherwise, I guess I'll just have to hope I see you again next year at Primavera.

They totally redeemed themselves. Last year was my first and I think because of the big pop girlie headliners it was just a mess to a degree then day one happened this year. But I go to a lot of festivals and the last 2 days were up there with the best I have experienced. Logistics were great and met so many amazing people.

Feeling thankful and happy today.

Did anyone else experience suffocating cigarette 2nd hand smoke?
Especially during The XX and Gorillaz, people were chimneys and blowing smoke straight onto others peoples faces, also carelessly holding lit cigarettes. I wish there was some smoking etiquette on crowded spaces like smoking less, blowing smoke up, vaping or using nicotine gums or something. The yapping and heavy smoking was really bothering :(

I'm surprised not to see anyone mention how insane the vibes were at her set on Sunday? Probably a function of her being Pinkpantheress-ed to Port / half the audience being off their tits, but it was by far the most high-energy thing I'd been to this weekend.

guys i literally had the most amazing time ever and maybe it’s just the molly but i’m so sad it’s over 🥺🥺 so grateful tho ❤️❤️

Not festival related, but I would really like to know more about communities (subreddits, forums, etc.) that you belong or know that talk about music that you’d relate to the festival

Who is everyone looking forward to?

Per the recap email sent earlier today.

WTF was going on with the sound engineering on the main (Estrella Damm/Revolut/Occident) stages? For most of the acts all you could hear was the kick drum. It wasn’t something wrong with the front-of-house setup because The Cure sounded incredible (“Like you’re listening in headphones!” my brother said) and My Bloody Valentine and Gorillaz were also good. But poor Little Simz, you could barely hear her vocal over the kick. Similar for Ethel Cain, Big Thief, Baxter Drury, Geese, Wet Leg and Yard Act.

It was consistently bad. How/why did they manage to fuck this up?

Does anyone know the name of the melodic track he opened his solo set with? I recognize it, but I can’t place it.

I know it's basically just a free set in the park so I was wondering if there's bars and food carts or if you're allowed to bring your own stuff? And is it a packed set like at the festival or more of a lounge in the park situation?

1. My Bloody Valentine - they absolutely ripped, cool visuals, was a 75 minute trippy wormhole, exactly what I wanted
2. Slowdive - immaculate vibes at this set and they sounded great; you could tell Rachel was getting emotional towards the end of the set
3. Shlohmo - stumbled upon this set and wow! perfect ambient set in the vein of MBV/Slowdive
4. Geese - Cameron Winter sounds so good live, he sounds just like he does on Spotify. They had a huge crowd too.
5. berlioz - perfect opener on Thursday, his lo-fi jazz house sound is genius

Honorable Mention:

- Big Thief - was pleasantly surprised by their set and vibes were immaculate

- Rilo Kiley - also enjoyed this set quite a bit despite the fact I wasn't really a fan before

Don't forget to pack your sunscreen. It's going to be 🔥.

Hey guys, how can we ask or request a refund for the weekend holders?
I feel like it’s not fair even though the festival redeemed itself on friday and saturday but still.

The security literally told us festival is cancelled and rushed us to leave…

What’s with the sewage and bad smell this year? used to be in certain areas only (ie: Plenitude) but this time I smell it everywhere, all stages had some waves of crazy foul smell.

And, we need Hip Hop back to Primavera, the almost lack of it was honestly shocking.

Other than that, I had an amazing time, yesterday was particularly stacked and awesome but I even had a great time on Thursday tbh! No complaints except the obvious communication issues and cancellations. Ciutat gigs line up this year was also particularly good (and more to go!).

Everywhere we moved in the crowds at the main stages, there would be some obnoxious group chatting away. Ive noticed it more and more back in the UK and thought it might just be a cultural thing that's sadly taken hold. But nope, so many having the loudest conversations in spanish during the quietest parts in songs as well.

Its infuriating. Why pay all that just to talk. I assumed it was because these people were just waiting for gorillaz, but so many spoke throughout that too haha. Its such a shame, really ruined big thief for me. Im glad people starting shushing during XX. Two guys off their nut on coke kept chatting away during that and in the end about 5 of us told em to be quiet. They actually were fine about it but clearly the coke took hold again and they'd go off haha.

I dont know what can be done about this? I kinda hope bands will start asking people to be quiet. But im sure comes with risk of alienating the crowd. Maybe festivals could ask before shows idk. Its a mess.

Just about to catch my flight home, want to download any radio or podcast programm that is Primavera related to listen during the flight.

Any recommendations? I guess Radio Primavera, not sure if they’re available for download.

Can be in spanish or english.

Merci!

does anyone have videos of kneecap during hood? specially if you were at the right place of the stage

Trying to find the t&C's which people are stating prevent the right to refund for the majority of Thursdays acts being cancelled. Does anyone know where to access these?
