The 2016 edition of Primavera Sound wraps up Sunday night after a week’s worth of performances. Primavera got seriously underway on Thursday (6/2) with sets from LCD Soundsystem, Air Tame Impala, Air, Destroyer, Thee Oh Sees, John Carpenter, Explosions in the Sky, Battles, Car Seat Headrest, Beach Slang, Holograma and more.

This was LCD Soundsystem’s first European festival show since their reformation. Though they’ve said there’s a new album on the, no new songs were played at Primavera. This was also a return for Air, who played at sunset, and have been in hibernation (live, at least) since 2010 and started performing again in May. You can check out LCD and Air’s Primavera setlists below.

Radiohead and Avalanches were among Friday’s performers. We’ll have pics from Friday and Saturday soon. Meanwhile, check out the gallery from Primavera Sound Thursday above.
