swelsbyuk Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 Anybody got any recommendations of acts playing the smaller stages? Realised that everyone we are seeing are on the two main stages and it would be a shame to not take in any of the other stages. Naaz on the Europe Stage sounds pretty good. Poppy, but my kids will like that. Sadly, she clashes with Gang of Youths who I really want to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poppy, but my kids will like that. Sadly, she clashes with Gang of Youths who I really want to see. If it avoids clashes and it might because it’s late - 23.15 on Monday - Bohemian Betyars in Global Village. They are very popular locally and tremendous drunken Gypsy punk. Outrageous fun with all the locals singing along with their crazy tales is a way you get even though you can’t understand a word. They call themselves the ‘streetbastards’. I think they are a classic Sziget act that sort of sum up the festivals true vibe. Also - the reggae/ African stage has a fantastic vibe to just hang out between other things you want to do - it’s must a wonderfully laid back and friendly little glade. It has the the added advantage of having a ‘secret’ path from it that brings you in at the front left of the main stage. This is quite a find, because nearly everyone approaches the main stage from the right and you can get nowhere near the most popular acts, but that little trip through the woodland from the reggae stage is a revelation! Like Glastonbury, make time just to wander rather than have a list of acts - it’s something hardly anywhere can touch Glastonbury for but Sziget does very well.

Yelo, the Parmiggiana Posted August 2, 2019 Report Share Posted August 2, 2019 Smaller replacements but yet replacements... Both are good, I am curious to see TSHA, seems mesmerizing on youtube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto77 Posted August 2, 2019 Report Share Posted August 2, 2019 One act I can really recommend is Tamino. Beautiful, fragile, Egyptian influences. One of my highlights at Rock Werchter this year. I had a tear in my eye at the end of the concert. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baxxx Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) what do you guys think can we expect from post malone? will he have a band on tour or is it just his autotune singing and some playback on a pretty empty stage like in recent yt videos. that would be weak for a headliner ... thinking about skipping sunday completely and party in budapest instead Edited August 4, 2019 by Baxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eivomracsy Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 i can recommend leoniden on europe stage, they are pretty fun live. also is anyone coming by caravan? seems the parking lot at h-bridge is limited to 15mins this year, impossible to get the wrostbamds in this time. or is everything caravan checkin related at the tent this year?

Knalbal24 Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 Hey everyone, just one last-minute question. We are a group of 4, arriving on tuesday, so we're moving in one day earlier. Is it still relatively easy to find a good spot in the shade then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're arriving on the morning, it will take some time for you to find some, but you'll be fine eventually. I have always arrived a day before and got a spot under a shade, just takes a bit of time. The prime spots are taken of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be my number one act to see if I was going. Although I love the national, I'm thinking they will bomb with the average sziget crowd. Think the the bacardi arena/Coliseum will be rammed that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I read about this festival, the more I think it's not for me at all. The National and maybe Florence would be the only headliners I would care about. To be fair mate it's not about the headliners like a werchter, so many stages and different styles. I would highly recommend the festival, it's my go to festival now.

gfa Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Incredible festival. Not even had music yet but the atmosphere is so good here not sure how the crowd will be vs british, but at least theres not twats everywhere. Going to get no sleep at all though near some dance thing that is so loud till 4am ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
