    More acts announced for RW, hoping NIN, Anderson .Paak, Eels and JW might show up at Open'er. The Script can :suicide:

    I'd love to have Jack White at Open'er, but the only possbile date is 6th July, a day before Rock Werchter. It is believed that JW is coming to Poland only in autumn.

    Been there in 2017. Something changed in Polish law? Cause there was no problem with taking beer outside. Unlike my previous Open'ers (2014 and 2015)

    As far as I know there weren't any changes, so either you were lucky or you were drinking low-alcohol beers, cause these are allowed (up to 3,5% I guess). I remember I was stopped several times too last year.

    Thanks for answering=) Been to Gdansk before and liked it. When do tickets generally sell out?

    Never ;) I think it happened only twice and these were one-day tickets (e.g. in 2016 when RHCP headlined), so you don't have to worry about it.

    Thanks for the info. Shame about the drinking areas;) On the other hand the atmosphere is more important for me so I'm glad that the crowd is good.

    These drinking areas are required by law, so there's nothing the festival can do about it. The crowd is really good, it is really close to the sea (5 minutes by bus and then 5 minuts on foot), so you can relax on the beach before gigs. Also, if you have enough time, you can visit Gdańsk and Sopot, which are one of the most popular tourist destinations in Poland. If you have any further questions, I'll be glad to help you.

    Looks like Jack White can be ruled out as the Wednesday headliner;

    • June 27: Hammersmith Apollo, London
    • June 28: Hammersmith Apollo, London
    • July 2: AFAS Live, Amsterdam
    • July 3: L'Olympia, Paris
    • July 4: L'Olympia, Paris

    There was an Open'er announcement this time last year, maybe we'll get something tomorrow/Thurs...

    What a pity! Arctic Monkeys getting more and more probable.

    Did anyone see the video Open'er posted on Facebook of bands saying merry Christmas, do you think these could be playing this year only bands I can remember where Two Door Cinema Club & Kodaline there where others but with out rewatching I can't remember 

    These band were playing some Polish festivals in 2017 which were organized by Alter Art (Open'er promotor) and that's why they appeared in the film.

    Interpol, Goldfrapp, Ride, Editors, Slowdive, and The Twilight Sad all playing London the weekend of Open'er (first announced July 2018 Euro show's for these bands)

    I'd take them all if it protects us from the likes of Dua Lipa, Charli XCX, Tyga and so on :)

    I was thinking the same.

    Worth noting also that google translate says 'Tomorrow Santa starts to work at 12:00' which may mean there will be many acts released over the afternoon, perhaps smaller acts and not the 4th headliner (which would make more sense if it's INmusic announcement related as I doubt they would share a headliner)

    I can confirm that in Polish version it looks the same :) Also, I don't remember any Open'er edition when we already knew all 4 headliners in December. However, the perfect situation would be: 12:00 - headliner and then some smaller acts each hour (not happening for sure ;))

    There is some activity on Open'er instagram which looks like a teaser for another clip announcing 3rd headliner. Also, there are some rumors that Depeche Mode can headline Open'er 2018, but since they have 3 upcoming gigs in Poland in February, we shouldn't expect them being announced until then. So, maybe finally QOTSA today?

    Given that Liam G is playing London the same weekend as Open'er, I think it's pretty likely he'll show up. Question is, is he headline material in Poland? Personally I sure hope not (and would prefer his brother), but Liam does seem to be on some kind of a roll at the moment...

    He’s definitely not a headliner material in Poland. In 2015, Noel was playing Orange Warsaw Festival and he was not treated as a headliner, given the font size on the poster (http ://rok.kiev.ua/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/2015-poster.jpg). And since Orange Warsaw is much smaller than Open’er, I’m pretty sure that neither Noel nor Liam would headline in Gdynia.

    The perfect (and possible) set of headliners for me:
    QOTSA
    Pearl Jam
    Arcade Fire
    Gorillaz

    But, unfortunately, I guess that one (or two) headliner will be a pop or hip-hop act.

    Apart from that, I hope for Robert Plant, Kamasi Washington, Beck, The National, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, BADBADNOTGOOD, The War on Drugs, Kings of Convenience, to name just a few ;) I think that the above are possible acts since almost all of them either released new albums recently or are going to do it before next summer.

    Just 3 more to go! ;)
