Sziget Festival 2018

[neacaisa]

other info? undercard?

[jdog]

It's been a well known secret for a while that Arctic Monkeys are announcing European dates today, so not a big surprise at all.

They're not announcing more than AM today, are they?

[Noeliam]

They said one headliner so AM makes sense but I really with to see other names (or at least a confirmation of TWoD).

[jdog]

Roskilde apparently announcing Eminem today. Could be him too?

Although the leak was spot on last time.

It's official!

But Sziget would have announced it at the same time I imagine?

I guess so. 

As I said earlier it's a "well known" secret that Artic Monkeys are announcing today + the leak said so, so I guess it's still way more likely than Eminem.

but it means that the announcements today will be split between both of them and not only about AM.

we will see.

True. But as far as I can see, Eminem announced dates in Netherlands, Switzerland, Italy, UK, Norway, Sweden, Denmark etc. At least two festivals (Roskilde and a festival in Switzerland). Pretty sure Sziget would have announced him at the same time as @Noeliam said.

That Artic Monkeys leaker has confirmed Sziget, so no need to worry.

Sziget (Hungary), Rock Werchter (Belgium), Mad Cool (Spain),  Nos Alive (Portugal), Primavera (Spain), Opener (Poland), Best Kept Secret (Netherlands), Rockwave (Greece), Oyafestivalen (Norway) from what I can see. But this is not the complete list, there are more. Also a UK festival supposedly.

Edit: It's online now. http://arcticmonkeys.com/

Gorillaz, Bjork are around.

Axwell + Ingrosso and Hardwell around for Tomorrowland at the end of July. A possible female headliner as well so maybe a pop headliner as well, but not many female acts doing a festival tour this Summer. 

[#1SzigetFan]

Regarding female acts, I would love to see Florence + the Machine back or Paramore as one of the headliners at Sziget, instead of acts like Rita Ora, Iggy Azalea, Ellie Goulding etc. Lana del Rey as worst case scenario hopefully.

They wouldn't extend the curfew for the first time and have them stop at 23h00 would they? 

With a new album...

[neacaisa]

justice and kodaline have been announced at summer well so big chances for them to be at sziget

[Noeliam]

Justice would destroy the A38!!!!

Wow!!! 

[manxboba]

After Glastonbury last year i would love to see Justice again.

Also hoping for Nick Cave, Gorillaz or Rammstein (as an outside shout)
