It’s a typically strong lineup.

Originally founded as a showcase for Spanish noise bands in 2001, Primavera Sound has become one of the largest music festivals in Europe - attracting huge headline acts.

Early bands topping the bill included Pulp, Belle & Sebastian, Sonic Youth and Echo & The Bunnymen.

A move to its current seafront location in Barcelona’s Parc del Fòrum in 2005 upped the capacity, with festival-goers enjoying music from 4pm-6am each day.

Recent years have seen it branch away from idie music to a more disparate bill of rock, pop, dance music and hip hop.

And every June hundreds of Scots fly to the Spanish sun to enjoy a long weekend of music.
