Joining a huge line-up.

The much-loved Primavera Sound festival has confirmed its return in 2021 with a huge line-up dropping today.

It's been revealed that Australian acts Tame Impala and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard will join next year's line-up. 

They'll be joined on the line-up by the likes of The Strokes, Iggy Pop, Gorillaz, Beck, The National, IDLES, Pavement, Bikini Kill, Fontaines DC, BROCKHAMPTON, The Jesus & Mary Chain, Bauhaus, FKA twigs, Charli XCX, Little Simz and more. 

The Spanish event was forced to postpone their 20th anniversary celebrations earlier this month, announcing that they would now take place across 2-6 June 2021. 


"Primavera Sound announces the most difficult decision in its history: finally we cannot celebrate the 20th anniversary of Primavera Sound during 2020, as we all would have liked. And it won’t be for lack of trying," read a statement from festival organisers.

"When, on March 28th, we announced the change of date to the end of August, we did so under the supervision and with the green light from the local and health authorities, who at that moment validated its celebration this year. However with the evolution of this unprecedented health crisis and faced with the uncertainty of the easing of lockdown measures for festivals, we find ourselves obliged to postpone the next edition of Primavera Sound Barcelona, for reasons of force majeure, until next year: from 2nd to 6th June 2021.

"We are devastated and are terribly sorry for the inconvenience caused, but the health and wellbeing of our audience and of all the people involved in the festival has always been and still is our absolute priority. We cannot thank you enough for your patience, love and understanding in this very uncertain scenario."
