Event headliners Lorde (Friday), Nine Inch Nails (Saturday), and Arctic Monkeys (Sunday) performed to some of the largest crowds on the Primavera stage. The festival lineup was a unique blend of Indie with R&B, and dance. The mix seemed to really pay off as Primavera proved to be the best Summer music festival in Los Angeles.

Primavera also did a great job of showcasing Spanish, South American, and Mexican artists, from around the world like Japan (Chai), Sweden (Drain Gang), and Barcelona (Bad Gyal)

The event overall was well thought out and accessible to all ages. It never felt packed and there was ample seating which helped when the crowds grew thick
