Damn straight!

See that San Miguel is the new sponsor this year... tad better than Estrella Damm.

Checked out flights there, think I'll book my return trip soon as they tend to go up in price faster than the mid-week flights.

Budgeting the whole thing, easily doable for €500 or less. All really depends on the amount of drinking as the alcohol on the festival site is quite pricey.

indiewindy · 12-11-2009 06:59PM

The pixies are the second band confirmed for next years primavera, nice:)

honru · 12-11-2009 11:48PM

That's awesome, I gave Pixies a break after seeing them a fair few times when they reformed but I'm sure they'll go down a treat outdoors in Barcelona.

Pavement and Pixies, wow.

honru · 18-11-2009 04:18AM

Booked flights earlier, going on the Wednesday, returning Monday.

Doing the same days, great prices with aer lingus at the moment. Judging by who made it through to the last round of voting, the line up will be pretty good

shampoosuicide · 19-11-2009 07:35AM

The word on the grapevine is that Panda Bear and Ganglians will be confirmed very soon. !!

Also, just might as well say now - I'm more than likely going to the festival solo, so if any fellow music fanatic wants to meet up and get some accomodation, get in touch...early days yet anyway

I'm probably not going next year, went in 07 and 09, it's time for a change. Will probably hit Sonar though, so not that much of a change really! Primavera's a great festival though, you'll have an awesome time

agreed. the line-up looks a lot more eclectic, last year there was a lot of bands ploughing a similar, noisy, feedback-drenched furrow...but the range of styles on offer for next year looks great. also, bear in mind they're still doing that 10th year anniversary vote so there will almost certainly be more heavy-hitters announced. i cannot wait

sweetie · 07-12-2009 11:43AM

So I bought my ticket using the only option available to me, paypal, (ticketmaster wouldn't take my passport details) last monday and have yet to receive any ticket details. Anyone do the same?

havent received anything yet either.
bought through paypal.

sweetie · 21-12-2009 05:55PM

I did and then emailed them and still nothing back from them.
It is quite perturbing, to be honest.

L.T.D · 22-12-2009 09:41PM

Can't wait for this

indiewindy · 29-12-2009 09:20PM

Ticket prices go up by €30 on January 1st, should be some more bands announced soon enough

Toast · 30-12-2009 10:31AM

That's a massive jump. In the past it has been a 10 euro incremental rise every couple of months. Glad I got my tickets in already but now to convince others to sort themselves out in the next day

honru · 31-12-2009 01:56AM

Wow yeah, that's quite a hike. I think tickets were kept at the early bird price until the middle of January for last year and already it has gone up quite a bit. Then again, they have announced more acts earlier this time.

Brian S · 08-01-2010 12:02AM

Hey, does anyone have a link for decent accommodation reasonably close to the venue? Hostels or apartments. Cheers!

indiewindy · 12-01-2010 07:14PM

More bands added today

The Big pink
shellac
no age
f*ck buttons
spoon
polvo
the clean
The Psychic Paramount
yeasayer
cold cave
UI
atlas sound
Tickets up by another €10 on the 15th, bands above probably all for ATP stage

hannable80 · 19-01-2010 10:56PM

Any one been too this festival, i am planning to go just wanted to know if its in one central spot like oxygen also i cant make sense if i have to queue for tickets there for one stage on the day.....

HELP!!!!!

honru · 19-01-2010 11:09PM

The festival is held in an enclosed area in the Parc del Forum, if that's what you were asking. You will have to leave the grounds to enter one of the stages, the Auditori hall. It's just to the right outside the main entrance. There's also a range of side events which take place in various venues around the city during the week of the festival.

I dunno what you mean by your next query.

hannable80 · 20-01-2010 12:51AM

whats the story with that stage are the larger bands on that one?
Where is best to get tickets does the one ticket do for all the areas... Whats the vibe like is it messy or more like the picnic?

It's a proper auditorium. It has bands playing only on two of the days and it opens and closes much earlier than the other stages, like between 3pm and 10pm or something. It generally caters for more mellow acoustic-type music, classical, jazz, etc.

It does get big acts, both Portishead and My Bloody Valentine have played in there, as well as playing a "main" set on one of the outdoor stages, in previous years.

I found Paypal to be the easiest. On arrival you pick up your tickets at the festival entrance. Check out the official site for all that info.

One full festival ticket does all the areas, though some of the performances by the larger bands at the aforementioned Auditori require that you prebook a seat. This costs something like €2 a ticket.

hannable wrote:

Definitely more like EP (if we're comparing it to either that or Oxegen).

Since there's no camping, I found it a good bit more mellow than either of those festivals.
