As in recent years the main venue for the Primavera is the Parc Forum venue in Barcelona’s Diagonal mar area near the beach.
This year the festival will have 6 stages including the Forum Auditorium. Some of the stages will be relocating closer to the big solar panel structure near the sea.
More innovation in 2008. There will be more fringe events around the city too including concerts in underground venues and day time performances in parks and public spaces and the birth of a club programme of pre-festival underground concerts called “Primavera als clubs” at various Barcelona clubs like the Apolo, SideCar and La2. Also a record/CD fair, a stage for kids and a 24-hour festival radio is being planned.
