Could Primavera Sound’s 2017 line-up be one of the best this year?

Almost 200 bands have been announced for Primavera Sound 2017’s 17th edition, and we’re not sure that the Barcelona festival could get much better. This year’s music and arts festival runs from 31 May to 4 June, with a bold and immersive line-up that cuts across genres for a long weekend in the Spanish city.

Acts announced to headline Primavera Sound 2017 are Frank Ocean, The xx, Bon Iver, Aphex Twin, Arcade Fire, Slayer, Grace Jones, Solange, Van Morrison.

Also appearing are The Make-Up, Metronomy, Miguel, Skepta, Teenage Fanclub, Flying Lotus, Death Grips, Grandaddy, Run The Jewels, Mac DeMarco, Kate Tempest, Broken Social Scene, and Angel Olsen – sharing the bill with so many more (scroll down to see day splits). Oh – there’s also more announcements still to come!

As well as the regular Barcelona concert venues, Primavera al Raval will again fill the central neighbourhood with a load of free concerts and activities.
