Does the space next to The Cure suggest we might have another main stage headliner on the Thursday? (Poster still says much more to announce too....)

No, this probably shows The Cure demanded (given the other acts that day) to be on top that day in the biggest font possible. Quite some bookers have issues these days coming to an agreement with acts about poster positioning. They are by far the biggest name on this year's line-up (at least historically), so I wouldn't expect anything less than this. 

 

And wow, an announcement! :P

I just don't understand why there is no further crossover with Mad Cool. There are so many artists there that aren't on the NOS Alive bill which would fit perfectly and bolster the lineup, such as Empire of the Sun, Disclosure, Foxing, Iggy Pop, Lauryn Hill, Jon Hopkins, Let's Eat Grandma, Mogwai, Nao, Parquet Courts, Rone, The Hives, Vince Staples to name a few. I would definitely be happy with some or all of those names added.

Disclosure, Jon Hopkins, Let's Eat Grandma are already playing other festivals in Portugal but I get your point

Surprised to see Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever so low. I know they’re not a big band but I wasn’t expecting to see them underneath literally everyone bar Tourist. Hoping they play an early slot so they don’t clash with anyone. My number one act to see at the festival. Bon Iver not far behind so praying there’s no clash there ?

Looking forward to Tourist, this is such a tune:

I'm honestly appaled. Way to suck the joy and life out of the festival antecipation season

I know, supposed to be one of the best parts of going to a festival and they've completely robbed us of it this year.

I bet that the first day is closed for the Nos Stage, bet that Cure will play for 2 hours so can´t see them adding more acts in that. Same with the last day, and the second day at best we´ll get some international small name, at worst another portuguese band.

There are atleast 4 bands missing for the Sagres Stage, can´t understand why they didn´t announce them already, and after H.E.R´s cancellation that´s even stanger...

Nos Clubbing stage almost full, guess they announce it closer to July as they always do,  so at this point 90% of the lineup is closed.

    • Me too.  Reckon they must have more this year.   Not bad is it - ended up paying same price as this year.  It still represents great value for me.  Well, until I check my bank account the Monday after the weekend.
    • Well mayors have more powers to do that sh*t...but they have to make the numbers add up.
    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
