Wireless Festival 2017

[NickisGinger]

Just seen that the one Germany has Justin Bieber and The Weeknd headlining over there, quite possibly mean The Weeknd could headline this one..

[rawaudioinput]

There's a Wireless in Germany? First I've heard about it

[kells004]

1st when over there....I think the weeknd is a good fit for one of the days

It's a Stadium according to google, I also read on the site that it's going to have a second main stage outside the stadium. Madness.

[atomised]

Its a stadium  theyve had the big city beats festival there the last couple of years. Its huge

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Campaigners have just been allowed to appeal the festival going ahead at Finsbury park so might be a while before this is announced, if at all.

[JSmurphy]

Lineup this month. It looks like Finsbury Park might not be the venue - their website says they're working with local councils to secure a location and will have a decision by the end of Feb. Be interesting to see if there's any downscaling - did last year's sell well? If the event continues in its current format I'll take a guess at The Weeknd, Justin Bieber & Disclosure. 

[NickisGinger]

Oh you already posted it :-)

doubt JB

Probably The Weeknd though which will be good. I wonder where it'll be this time though? Clapham Common?? Victoria Park?

[kells004]

my money is on the weeknd.....

not sure on other headliners maybe a DJ to headline

[dentalplan]

The headliner mix is gonna be mind-boggling and stupid again. I'm gonna go for something like: The Weeknd, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis/The Chainsmokers coheadline, Chance the Rapper/Rudimental coheadline. And then special guests like Bastille, Nas and Sean Paul or something. They'll probably steal it on the rap undercard; there are a lot of top hip hop festivals around that time.

the locals have been kicking off about the use of the park by a festie they've taken a dislike to (not without reasons), and they've got some sort of appeal hearing coming up which might get the fest stopped.

I'd guess, tho, that Finsbury Park is still the preferred location, if it can be sorted. Melvin has 20+ years experience of running events there.

I see that Wireless' official Facebook account has updated its location to Finsbury Park..

Festival Republic sent out a mailer yesterday, which gave the dates but said location was still to be confirmed. I suspect that's more correct than the website (which I'd seen before the mailer).

[NickisGinger]

Google translate. I did. But have no idea what it means even when it's English. Where did you even get that?

 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

I'm still saying Macklemore dropping out last year was the reason one or both of Chase and Status and Kygo ended up co-headlining, so him making amends this year is a reasonable shout

[kells004]

So my prediction is..

Drake 

the weeknd 

Martin Garix/macklemore

Really? Drake again so soon? 

[kells004]

Yeah he announced he will b doing something in London this summer...

Wouldn't wanna c it myself but can only think of love box but that might b to small for him now after his last tour sold so well

[dentalplan]

Drake said he's doing his own fest - whether that's true or not I dunno but he's probably too big for Wireless now and is more likely to do his own huge park or stadium show.

Read a rumour about him doing Wembley Stadium but the same source said he was doing Glasto which isn't looking likely.
