PRIMAVERA SOUND 2017

 
 
 
 

Primavera Sound is one of Europe's biggest music festivals. It is held in Barcelona, at Parc Del Forum, and attracts lot of people coming from everywhere in Europe and not only. This thanks to his varied line-up which can satisfy different musical tastes, from rock to underground to house and techno. This year have played Arcade Fire, The XX, Aphex Twin, veteran rockers like The Slayer,  the inimitabile Grace Jones whose concerts are always a big fantastic show, Bon Iver, Metronomy, and rappers like Run the Jewels. There were two huge stages for the biggest acts, four mid-sized stages where we have listened to Angel Olsen, Wild Beasts, Sleaford Mods and Black Angel, an area specialized in electronic music, and some other smaller stages providing a platform to more underground and indie names like Gold Class. There was even an indoor auditorium just outside the main festival grounds where we have enjoyed the evocative sounds of the Magnetic Fields. During this edition there have been also three unxpected concerts revealed only some minutes before their beginning: Arcade Fire on Thursday, Mogwai on Friday and Haim on Saturday.

Among the 55000 persons coming and watching the shows, the outfit were quite comfortable: long fluent dresses, mini dresses, cropped top with shorts, cropped pants. All weared with texan boots, ankle boots and sneakers. The main trend seen is probably that of the “athleisure”, a good mix between sport and fashion.
