More than 200,000 people attended Primavera Sound 2017

Primavera Sound, one of the most important musical festivals in Southern Europe, continues being a strong attraction. More than 200,000 people attended its 16th edition, which closed its doors last Saturday featuring Bon Iver, Arcade Fire, and Van Morrison in the line-up. As it has happened since the festival started in 2001, the public was strongly international. In fact, 55% of those who attended Primavera Sound 2017 were from outside of Spain. In particular, they came from 125 different countries.  Primavera Sound 2018 will take place between May 31st and June 2nd at Barcelona’s Parc del Fòrum, a location which, according to the festival director, Alberto Guijarro, needs to be overhauled in order to match the festival’s level. / ACN
