Former Glories:
If this year’s lineup wasn’t enough of a clue NOS Alive is known for its huge names, having seen Pearl Jam, White Stripes and Linkin Park in its first year the lineups have done nothing but get better. With Rage Against The Machine, The National, The Prodigy, Kasabian, Paramore, Arcade Fire, Foals, The Weeknd, Foo Fighters, Depeche Mode, The xx, Royal Blood, Alt-J, Glass Animals and The Cure all having taken the stage before.
Also look out for:
If pulling in some of this year’s biggest names wasn’t enough NOS Alive takes place in one of Europe’s most vibrant cities. Just 10 minutes away from Lisbon’s downtown, and 15 minutes away from the beach NOS Alive is a metropolitan festival like no other. So if you want sun, sand and some amazing music NOS Alive is the festival for you.
