If unfortunately you cannot come next year, you have two options:


- You can donate your ticket to us and 20 euros of the amount will go to Save The Children, #YoMeCorono and Open Arms. You will also receive the 20th anniversary commemorative book and T-shirt. Click here for more information.

can't imagine they'll get too many donations!

Also noticed Rolling blackouts coastal Fever missing, damn.

nope not yet, I bought from redtkt if it means anything.

Yeah, me too. Email is from Primavera Sound and has the subject line Primavera Sound 2021 -15%.

Bought a ticket there, that lineup is too much to pass up on.

Nice to have something to look forward to at least!

Tickets bought

Am I right in saying that if we do nothing our tickets for this year become tickets for next year? And the code is if you want to buy a second ticket for yourself, or to give to a pal to buy their ticket?

Presummably they are on general sale as well and can just be bought normally, no?

yes indeed

Very tempted to get tickets for a European festival next year and Primavera is top of the list.

From experience, can anyone tell me

1 - how bearable is the heat
2 - Accommodation - difficult to get, and at a decent price?
3 - how is access to and from the festival (public transport etc)

The heat is grand, it's on the coast so there's a fine breeze and you won't head into the arena until evening time anyway.

Accomodation can be as cheap or expensive as you wish, but we always stay in poblenou which is a 10-15 minute walk to the Forum, a 6 person apartment for 5 nights can be roughly 1200, so 200 a head or 40 a head per night.

The metro stops right outside, that will bring you anywhere in the city with connections, it's really good, although the festival can run until very late and you might have to wait until 6:30 for the metro to open again to get home. This is all not a problem if you stay local to the Forum

Blur just started now:

could be worse, Porto ticket holders can't even apply for a refund until a 14-day period in June 2021!

Had it in my head when buying tix that the main days were Fri/Sat/Sun

Have a wedding on the Thursday

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucking idiot.

sunday usually has gigs in the city in the college and the apollo venue

For 2020, with the new beach electronica thing on the Sunday, they dropped the "college" shows (which is a shame) and kept the Apolo event. 2021 will be the same I suppose.

A few of my fave names from the 2020 poster haven't made it to 2021 (r dawson, f points) but overall it's pretty damn good. PS have done well to be able to put out such a strong line up a full year in advance, I can see them doing well with the pent up demand of people wanting something to look forward to post-covid.
