Ranking

The numbers
Historical score (0 to 100)
Every act measured in the twelve months before 2017. The same scale as for 2027.
Why no points?
The points (out of 126) use figures that only exist today (listeners, airplay, own venues). Those were never stored for earlier years, so for this edition they do not exist. The difference explained.

How to read this

Historical scores: measured in the twelve months before this edition, against the strongest acts of every previous edition (80 = stronger than 80% of those headliners). The level (A, B, C, D) is relative to Pinkpop: an A here is not the same A as at a bigger or smaller festival.
