The Streets stick out like a sore thumb in that lot. Good to see them around next summer though.

i remember the Ting Tings a few years back appearing at a bunch of rock and metal festivals in Europe, looked very out of place sandwiched between Trivium and in flames

[berger55]

Are we expecting any new soon? Who could be added?

[Hullabaloo92]

Some guys in the German forum heard of Macklemore and Post Malone, who would perfectly fit with the rest of the already announced rap artists.

I wouldn't suggest any further big artists because the headliners have never been so huge at this festival.

[birchtree29]

They just added Tame Impala!

Here is the podcast that they announce the new names in German: https://hearthis.at/beckscampfm/hurricanesouthside19-bandwelle2/

Here is the updated lineup: https://www.hurricane.de/en/

Well the Cure and Foos on the same day is interesting.

Agree, especially as they both often play 2.5/3 hour shows...

[gregory]

+ Bloc Party & Wolf Alice (according to the poster Foo's posted)

and Interpol

Sounds like an awesome day.

I've never been to one of these before but if the clashfinder I found are correct, it's not looking like mainstage 1 & mainstage 2 setup because there is an overlap. Is this true? So this means the Cure headlining a second stage?

RaR/RiP festivals get one band on the 2nd stage when they have 4 headliners. I wouldn't be surprised if they do that here too. One year they had Slipknot, this year it was Gorillaz on the 2nd stage

AM and AF were on the same day last year. AM on 1 and AF on 2. The Friday at southside the bill goes till 2am so I think one starts after the other finishes ( I left AM half way through). On the Sunday at Hurricane though the curfew is about 11 so they clash. So southside is you're better chance of seeing both although you have the longer sets this year.

 

Edit - They only started the first day at 2-3pm this year too so you might have better chance of southside pushing the start forward to accommodate it.

Thanx! Actually I'm more interested with the concept and setup than actually going over there as the other days are much less interesting for me. I do hope to find a festival on either side of Glastonbury so I'll keep an eye on that one.

Keep in mind that it's COLD there.
We've been at Hurricane this year and there were three days of rain and wind under temperature from 8 to 12 degrees. Great lineup, nice organization, but weather made it hellish for us. 2019 edition has the best line-up for me as for now, it's like this year's Mad Cool; but I just don't want to come back yet ?
And yes, AM and AF played the last day and clashed by 20 minutes. I think the same goes to 2019 sunday headliners.

Yeah, they have a history of bad weather. 20 minutes is quite an overlap, especially when the sets are 90 minutes long but I guess the Cure and the Foos will play at least 120 minutes set. How far those stages are from each other?

Maybe two minutes walk, not more, maybe five if the crowd is big. But if you want to stay in front area you should come before the set starts, because they close it after reaching some limit of people there. We came to see AM 20 minutes before their show started, and still couldn't make it to be in front. 
Foos will probably play green stage and The Cure will be at blue one.

The weather was why I decided to go to southside. Even though I was trying to tie in a trip to Miniatur Wunderland. Was a toasty 25c all week.

Hi! Anyone who's been to Hurricane Before who can tip me which town to choose if you want to stay in a hotel and commute every day to the festival area?  Thanks in advance=)

I was never there, because there aren't really a town in walking distance. If you are lucky, you will probably find a Hotel/B&B around the festival, the village called Scheessel. But for that, you may already too late. Bremen and Hamburg are both around 40-60 mins away. The trainstation of Scheeseel is very close to the festival.

Trains to Scheessel:

metronom Elbe-Takt - Hamburg Hbf  - Uelzen

metronom Weser-Takt - Hamburg Hbf  - Bremen Hbf

metronom Aller- & Leinetal-Takt - Uelzen - Hannover Hbf - Göttingen

I wouldn't count that they have a special nite service for the festival. Last trains will run between 1am and 2 am. The train is included in the ticket, but its mainly for go to the festival and back once, so it's made fore those who are camping there. https://www.hurricane.de/de/infos/anreise1/

Ah thank you=) I saw that Bloc Party are playing Berlin on the 21st of June so maybe not on that date. Garbage, Noel, Hives, Wolf Alice would be great!
