Primavera Sound Festival 2016
This event has been and gone.
Add to your event list
Primavera Sound is the biggest indie and alternative music festival in the world. Everything from alt-rock (Arcade Fire, The Black Keys) to sub-mainstream electro (Caribou, SBTRKT) is showcased alongside Barcelona's stunning mediterranean coast.
Having celebrated 15 years in 2015, Primavera has its sights fixed firmly on the future. Its reputation as a place to find the next big thing while basking in the established brilliance of indie pioneers from the last four decades, is well and truly intact.
Add in the fact that Primavera brings the festival feel to the entire city – with extra stages and shows before the main event, free to enter – and you can see why Time Out recently picked it as their number 1 festival in the world.
