trust me I would love you to be right 😉 , but I have no hopes for them at sziget BECAUSE of their dates.

so in the middle of nowhere in their calendar, just ONE date for sziget during their "resting period" lol ?

look at their tour.. they might need some rest in August, don't you think..? No way they're gonna be here.

Bands I mentioned all have their own guitars, battery, bass, sometimes piano, etc ... and they are at least 4 members on stage. Yes, they do cost more. And nowadays it is more difficult for them to travel than solo artists who dont need much to tour. Slowthai, Yung Lean, Caribou, Beabadoobee, ... trust me, they ARE cheaper for a fest' to book.

(sorry lol.. I'm upset with them 🤗 )

it's cheaper... i'm afraid they'll keep on going with that 😞 Bands with all their stuff cost more. it makes me think about their question "would you like more edm-techno music in he future 😄 ??" .... hey, we''re not stupid, we know what you are trying to do guys .... fuck u

it's a matter of taste. To me, it was very weak. Just compared to 2019 with Yungblud, Chvrches, Coheed & Cambria, Of Mice & Men , Kodaline, Razorlight, Idles, ... yep, 2022' A38 suck lol.

Happy October everyone ! @Sziget2023_Leaks, any infos or clues you're free to share ?? So far we have this "see you soon!" image that could mean nothing, or maybe Coldplay. We heard that Billie Eilish will headline Reading/Leeds festival, which takes place very close to Sziget. Same for GreenDay (I think their others headliners have no chance to headline Sziget : Sam Fender, Foals, KSI and Paramore). And for the other news "non related" to Sziget : P!nk will be at Werchter Boutique in June, so unlikely for Sziget ; Muse will headline Rock Werchter Beyonce might have 2 dates in Italy end of June

Last month I heard that The Weeknd was a possible shot ... is it officially over ?

Just so everyone knows, it seems that Reading/Leeds festival (25-27 August) headliners are : BILLIE EILISH, GREENDAY, SAM FENDER, PARAMORE, KSI, FOALS Everyone on their forum seems to believe their leaker, so... Billie Eilish would fit Sziget IMO, and I personnaly hope that Paramore can be there 😇

LORDE as a headliner should convince evryone that it is a fake... come on guys...

I would give a kind of "identity" to Sziget in their headliners choices, every year. And my 2023 babys would be : * Rock act 1 : My Chemical Romance or Panic! at the Disco * Classic / Legend act : R.E.M or No Doubt * Female act : Katy Perry or P!nk * EDM act : Armin Van Buuren or Martin Garrix * Pop act : Imagine Dragons or Coldplay * Rap / HipHop act : Eminem or Outkast

If it's true : That's beautiful ^^ My dream of seing Blink-182 back at Sziget is reborn lol..

She's full of energy, have great hits, ... I'd rather have her or Katy Perry than Taylor Swift ^^

interesting, where did you see that ? agreed ; this is pure Rock. And it fits Sziget perfectly, a very nice souvenir from the 2019 edition 🙂

yep, sadly... 😕 In 2019 we had "Of Mice & Men" at the A38, in 2022 "cleopatrick" at the Europe stage (not really metal, but it was good though ^^) .. I would love sziget to offer us at least 1 metal act per day, even on a small stage.. ! damn they have changed so much.. 😞

No I don't think so. My Chemical Romance would headline before Paramore. About Muse... since they became an electro-pop band, I agree with you : absolutely no interest of listenning to them anymore.

here's 2 pieces of videos (brianstorm and teddy picker), you can see 1) they're doin' great and 2) people having fun. Sorry for you guys if in Belgium their shows are boring. IMG_3697.mov IMG_3700.mov

"if you ask people" lol , try to make your own opinion instead of trusting everything you read on social media 😉 Turner is no Dave Grohl, everyone knows that.

Both Kings of Leon and Arctic Monkeys shows at Sziget (major festival FYI) this year were great. SORRY if they don't "play" with the crowd or talk for 20 minutes : they play music. And they have great musicians.

I agree. I'm kinda sick of Gorillaz, come on, there's plenty of major acts possible as headliners.. A BIT OF ORIGINALITY PLEASE !

lool man ! you named exactly 16 artists, and had 3 rights ! (KoL, Capaldi and Dua lipa, which were already announced for 2020 lol) Or you're being ironic, in which case welle done 😂 I agree Coldplay seems too big for festivals. But after all, Justin Bieber is the second artists the most listenned on Spotify, so we could say the same about him.. That what make me think, Coldplay at Sziget 2023, not that impossible. (even if I'd rather prefer smaller acts, I hate when people are coming very very early at the mainStage and wait... You said the crowd for Kings of Leon was empty : a bit exagerated lol, but that was to me the perfect crowd, people were enjoying the show without having difficulties to "move their arms" in the pit) But yeah... I understand Sziget has to sell out 1 or 2 days at least, so...

Still nothing for Hungary, so... also, about Florence : why again ? already here 2 editions ago. Many artists/band will be available for a headline spot.

it happenned many times in the past, that an artist playing one of these 2 festivals, play the other one the year after ^^ Also, for eagles of death metal, I meant "no way subheadliner", but same for headliner lol, they are too small ^^ Queens of the Stone Age, on the other hand... why not 🙂 (if Josh Homme figures his problems out)
