Festival season has officially arrived. As we enter the months of warm weather, there's an abundance of festivals to look forward to across the globe with some of the biggest names out right now. One group that you'll be seeing often on the festival circuit is Migos. Following the release of their album Culture II, they performed at Coachella and are slated to touch many more stages as the months pass. The group was scheduled to perform at Barcelona festival, Primavera tonight, alongside Tyler, The Creator. Unfortunately, that won't be happening but instead, a grime legend will be taking their place.

Primavera took to Twitter to reveal that Migos will not be performing at Primavera this evening. The Atlanta trio allegedly missed their flight to Barcelona which resulted in the cancellation. However, they were pretty quick to find a replacement. Skepta will be holding down the slot which comes ahead of Tyler, The Creator's performance.

"We regret to inform that Migos will not perform at Primavera Sound. The members of the band have missed their flight to Barcelona, in their spot we are pleased to announce that Skepta, the king of grime, joins the festival’s lineup." Primavera's tweet read.
