Primavera Sound 2020 has been rescheduled to 2021 due to coronavirus concerns. The Barcelona festival was originally set to take place June 3-7. In March, it was rescheduled to Aug. 26-30. The next edition of the festival will take place June 2-6, 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,” read a statement from the festival.

“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,” the statement continued. “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 well-being 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,” concluded the statement.

The statement noted that “all tickets that have been bought will be valid for Primavera Sound Barcelona 2021 and will include special benefits for all those who decide to keep them.” Fans can request a refund if they so choose starting June 3, which is also when the festival will announce its 2021 lineup.

This year’s edition of Primavera was set to feature Pavement’s first shows since 2010, as well as Lana Del Rey, The Strokes and many more.
