The 2016 and 2017 festivals took place in the Caja Mágica. The organization then moved the festival to an open-air space in Valdebebas. Peak attendance happened in the 2018 edition, with 240,000 participants distributed along the three days of the festival (12–14 July), featuring a troubling first day due to agglomerations.[1][2] In the 2020 edition, the daily maximum attendance was reduced to 60,000 by the organization, and the length was expanded to four full festival days.[3]

gollark: So, triangular literally means that it... consists of three line segments AB, BC, AC connecting three points A, B, C which do not lie on a single line.
gollark: This is an example of "triangular".
gollark: Okay, I think I could probably do some fingerprinting stuff, but it would break if you changed devices.
gollark: Though I'm not quite sure how I'd detect you specifically. Hmmmm.
gollark: See, *that's* somewhat technically possible.
