Sziget is promoting the announcement on social media as "huge". It's definitely about the number of the acts, I guess (they also mentioned it in the posts)... because Fred Again, Stormzy and Sam Smith are not that huge tbh

You can buy drinks inside the festival. Lidl has a few but there are bars inside the festival area and also 1 or 2 beer gardens. But yeah, I think for safety measures you're not allowed to bring drinks at the camping area (I never camped myself there, I always rent accomodation in the city of Cluj and take the buses to the festival from Iulius Mall). You're also not allowed to bring drinks inside the festival from outside. And if you have bottles of water or juices with you, they will take them away from you if you already opened them. If the bottles weren't already open, you will able to take them inside the festival. Regarding the weather, they had issues with the rain few years ago because it was full of mud but at the past 2-3 editions they didn't have problems like this. Maybe it's a bit cold during the nights. On average, I'd say that during the day is around 25 degrees C and during the night it can get to 10-15 degrees C. The weather is kinda unpredictable there, so there could be days when it can also get to over 30 degrees C during the day.

Stupid contractual agreements between parties, I guess. And the festival might also decide not to leak everything and leave some surprises for the announcement because otherwise everyone will buy the tickets when they're cheaper and not after the price increase.

Well, I guess some acts want / allow to get leaked meanwhile others might threaten with cancellation if they get leaked.

Eminem haha, just kidding... but would be cool Stormzy would have been given the 19:30 slot at the cancelled 2020 edition

Well, that's Stormzy

At this point I believe we'll get some headliners, some subs and a bunch of Hungarian names. I wouldn't be surprised to see Azahriah headline.

FTFY

Stormzy headlining? I know that Sziget has way more British visitors than few years ago but I don't think he's that popular in the area, that's why he was not a headliner at previous Sziget editions.

Nope I think I'm getting optimistic if neither of those will headline

If both Fred Again and SHM will headline, I'm afraid we're going to have a lineup very similar to 2017 in terms of headliners, full of electronic & commercial acts. Back then we had The Chainsmokers, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Major Lazer, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis and Wiz Khalifa as headliners. Only P!nk and Kasabian were the quality acts at the top. P!nk was also a commercial act but she put on a great show. Btw, I don't think BMTH will headline. They're not that big + we have the confirmation that we won't have a rock headliner. So maybe only Sam Smith, Fred & SHM will be the headliners we're going to get.

I hope Peggy Gou won't be at Sziget, as she is well known for last minute cancellations. She did this twice with Electric Castle Festival. But @Sziget2024_Leaks said that we won't get a rock headliner next week 😟

Ariana Grande - pov ?

Swedish House Mafia confirmed by Untold Festival in Romania Edit: Sam Smith too

Oh, I totally forgot these acts are on that poster

Those are not headliner material. Leaks said no rock headliner in the first wave. But Imagine Dragons weren't "rock" according to Leaks haha Btw, we still have the "Hello there" clue + the sky/clouds and we still don't know what those were all about.

That's sad, I hope for one for the next announcement then 😞

Wow, that guy deleted his reddit account, I think 😂 Sorry, I was wrong, he just deleted that post

Will Sziget announce a rock headliner on Tuesday @Sziget2024_Leaks? If yes, is it more similar to Mumfords or to Foo Fighters?

Untold Festival from Romania is teasing Swedish House Mafia

So we have the next announcement date

Khalid, Stormzy, Lewis Capaldi, Martin Garrix, DJ Snake all played at the 2021 Abu Dhabi GP post-race concert. Foo Fighters were also scheduled but had to cancel due to a medical emergency.

If it's a clue, it could be Sia too: "Come on, come on, turn the radio on It's Friday night, and it won't be long"

I'm pretty sure it's a BMTH clue, they're almost everywhere next summer

The complete answers: I'm a bit disappointed that 🎤👘 is not Mike Shinoda but overall it was a good announcement. 😁
