Louis’ FAREWELL REEL

[louisisalarrie]

Why isn't Louis playing Reading/Leeds, the most famous indie music festival in the world and one in his home country? These Euro festivals aren't raising his profile much.

Helloooooo anon! This wasn’t gonna be a welcome to the show, but alas, I got ahead of myself and time to burn before the next band bumps in. So, welcome to the show!

I would love to see him play Reading/Leeds, and think that he would fit really well into the 2024 lineup in terms of genre and level of fame. I think he’d love to play them too. It is definitely a shame. However, he is playing at Victorious Festival in Portsmouth, UK, at the same time as Reading/Leeds, which has a very cool lineup (IDLES, Snow Patrol, Fatboy Slim, Pixies etc.) too that he fits well in. So we should be excited for that too!

Sometimes it’s easy to get carried away with the names of festivals, also. While Victorious definitely is smaller, it’s not far off the capacity of Reading/Leeds.

Expected capacity for 2024 is:

- Reading/Leeds = over 200,000 over the whole weekend

- Victorious Festival = roughly 170,000 over the whole weekend

Honourable mentions of 2024:

- Coachella = 250,000, only sold around 200,000, down by roughly 14%-17% since 2023

- Glastonbury = 210,000 capacity, over 200,000 sold (with complaints and major issues with overcrowding this year)

So, while it’s smaller than the bigger names, the lineup is still fantastic and at a reasonable size.

You’ve also gotta remember that before the current festival even goes ahead, the organisers are already locking in tentative headliners and smaller artists for the next year. Festivals particularly are booked ridiculously in advance, much like stadium tours, to really gauge ticket sales, expected gross, capacity, and delivered fees for the artists and what they can offer them. So, even if louis’ managers pitched him for Reading/Leeds/Glasto last year, and the festival organisers maybe wanted to put a hold on him but not confirm due to current negotiations with other artists and their desired curated lineup, there is very little point for Louis’ team to just sit and hold out hope they’ll confirm him and miss out on other opportunities. Hell, he’s probably turned down a bunch of smaller festivals in hopes of the bigger ones, but getting an official offer from Victorious, he’s not gonna decline that to wait and see what happens with the bigger festivals. It’s a silly business mistake.

Plus, these offers all have expiry dates. If his manager/booking agent is pushing for an answer from Leeds/Glasto/Reading and still not getting one, because the offer from Victorious is about to expire with an already desirable delivered fee, well, he’s gonna take it. And idk, maybe he got declined from the bigger festivals for whatever reason too (I don’t see why), but shit happens.

Anyway, in terms of euro festivals, he’s been confirmed to play Zurich Openair in Switzerland on the 24th, which is still the same time as Reading/Leeds is on (and Victorious, but he’s only playing the Friday obviously). So he’s nabbed two festivals, with Zurich Openair also having high profile artists (Macklemore, Armin Van Buuren, Milky Chance etc.), in 2 different countries, with different demographics and genre diversity. Which is sick!

So, I mean, hopefully he gets nabbed for next year (even if he takes time off, I doubt he’ll turn down those festivals), and for now, he’s proving himself and securing his footing in the festival industry. Hell, there are a heap of artists that, while they do tour, stick to festivals and get picked for festivals due to proving their pull at said festivals, exclusivity arrangements, etc., and so this will, in the long term, be great for him.

It’s easy to fall down certain rabbit holes of “he deserves the big shows, he’s not getting enough attention” etc. and comparing him to Harry/other artists, but his career progression, in my opinion and from what I’ve seen by others, is going well and smoothly and safely. Which, ya know, his team aren’t taking huge risks, and I think they could sometimes be more ambitious, but he is getting more opportunities and even just over FITFWT, he has grown heaaaaps. I’d like to trust that his team is pitching him for the bigger festivals/lineups, im sure they are, but it’s just… is what it is.

Taking these Euro festival opportunities is all about securing a tighter, smaller growth, as opposed to shoving him onto big stages and hoping for the best. He’s just not there yet. But his fan to artist relationship relies on a close knit bond and loyalty, which is very unique these days, and will continue to build slowly but with a hell of a lot of strength behind him. It’s just different fan dynamics to many other artists.

So, I dunno, I hope this helps and clears things up a bit! I think these euro festivals are gonna do wonders for him. Faith in the Future, baby.

Thanks for the chats!

Experience the Vibrant Energy of Zürich OpenAir 2024

Even as the summer season gets intense, Zürich is set for one of its most-awaited events—Zürich OpenAir. Also known as Alster Festival, this festival will take place on the 23rd—24th of August in 2024. With the perfect combination of local and international artists, the audience is guaranteed a thrilling experience. As you listen to John Summit and Dabu Fantastic, the audience can look forward to diverse sounds and shows that will compel them even after the last song.

A Melting Pot of Music

Zürich OpenAir is reputed as the best music festival in Switzerland, enthusiastically participated in by fans from across the globe. This year’s acts are coupled with the festival’s slogan—catering to any musical taste, ranging from electronic music to indie rock. Pop will be provided by the rather energetic John Summit, known for his house tracks, and Dabu Fantastic, which premiered and presented a mix of Swiss pop and hip-hop.

Convenient Transfers for a Hassle-Free Experience

Preparing how to get to Zürich OpenAir should be of the essence to make the most of this beautiful occasion. Whether you arrive in Zurich from another country or another city or just get around the city, there is something special about getting driven by a Zurich chauffeur service and arriving at Zurich Airport. Choose a comfortable ride to take you directly to your hotel or the festival venue if you are not checking into a hotel. 

Zurich limousine service is usually what a person needs if they want a luxurious mode of transport. Not only is it comfortable, but you will be so glammed up when you arrive at Zürich OpenAir. Furthermore, the Zurich to Zürich OpenAir transfer services are for festival transfers to provide the visitors with the most convenient moving path and the moving time convenient for festival timing.

Exploring Zurich Before the Festival

Zürich OpenAir is much more than an open-air music event. Here, you have a chance to meet Zurich city. Before getting stuck in festival mode, use intercity transportation to explore the best of Zurich in terms of culture. Take a walk in such striking attractions as Bahnhofstrasse, Zurich’s downtown shopping paradise, or the Old Town, a medieval time travel to the middle of the 19th century. 

Chauffeur services, including guided tours, allow you to tour Zurich in your own time but in style. One recommended activity in this stunning city is visiting Kunsthaus Zurich, which houses numerous pieces of art from the modern epoch, or riding around the scenic Lake Zurich.

Openair am Greifensee is much more than a music festival; it is a festival of culture and creativity. That’s why the choice of performers in this year’s performance ranges from electronic music to national soul voices and everything in between so that all musical preferences will be fulfilled. Performers like Pablo Nouvelle and Nativ top the list, meaning the fans will be in for great dancing across starlit screens. To elevate your experience, a limousine transfer from Zurich to the festival can make your arrival as exciting as the event.
