The strokes appear to be in Gothenburg on the 14th august surely they become the likely big band closing out the festival this year?

They're never played at Sziget, fingers crossed!

[The_Preach]

Also playing flow festival in Finland on the 16th of August, I think they will be playing Sziget as well. At least I hope so! Also Stormzy and Bon Iver are playing on flow.

Now you're talking! 

Eminem

The Strokes

Kings of Leon

Katy Perry

Calvin Harris

Shawn Mendes

Tiesto?

Nice to see The Strokes in the mix, but wasn't there information about only one rock headliner this year? @chunkychips127 directly hinted at Kings of Leon.

(I'd rather considering The Chemical Brothers EDM than Kings of Leon rock)

Are Kings of Leon considered as a rock band?

In my book, they are.

What else is in your book then? 😃

[Sziget2024_Leaks]

Shawn Mendes and Eminem daily tickets
will be 20€ and 30€ more expensive than the
other ones, respectively.

I could only repeat myself

Told you Khalid almost a week ago,
and you will see everyone I mentioned on
the undercard / amongst the headliners.

We're getting close.

To make up for the loss of sales on the rest of the line-up. Gonna be a quiet year except for those two days

They're really expensive artists.

[Steve.]

So they gonna charge 40% more on Eminem’s day. Another very unlikely scenario.

can we get back to talking about the very real possibility of strokes being on the bill?

You can consider The Strokes as an indie (rock) band, meanwhile Kings of Leon as an (alternative) rock band, so I guess they're a possibility.

[thetime]

Kings of Leon would still be a great booking for Sziget.

Yep, in case it is definetely a one-trick-pony edition - likewise last year, with all the due respect: it was so evident they put everything on Ed Sheeran and 21P-Foo Fighters that the rest of the lineup looked empty at best

Ed Sheeran -> Shawn Mendes

The 1975 -> extra EDM act (Tiesto?)

Martin Garrix -> Calvin Harris

The National -> The Strokes

Post Malone -> Eminem

Florence + the Machine -> Katy Perry

Foo Fighters -> Kings of Leon

It’s standard past few years that they have 3 big marquise acts with the big touring rock band closing the final day. That’s why I’m thinking strokes is super likely....leaves you Eminem, Strokes and some pop star as your top line.

That would probably be the single most boring set of headliners I could've ever imagined...

I'd agree with you, but KoL is not a cheap name actually - so is not Shawn Mendes. *IF* this leaker is correct, than I'd rather believe that the triplette will be Eminem - Shawn Mendes - pop name with bonus Kings of Leon. 

Is it subpar? Absolutely, taken Eminem apart, who remains a colossal booking for a european festival

Hey,

Already reading this forum for a while. I just saw that Khalid is announced for 10th of august for Sziget. The famous pop singer confirmed himself on his own website. So...I think the user Sziget2020leaks seems quite legit to me becAuse he mentioned Khalid already earlier...

check his Tour dates and you will see :)
