Looks as if we could have a line-up announcement shortly... Who do you guys think we'll see next year?

[SomeoneListeningIn 645]

I could see Tyler, the Creator headlining this. Maybe AJ Tracey too, he's had a pretty big year.

Notable slots for FKA Twigs, Kano, Mura Masa and Denzel Curry too.

AJ and Tyler would be pretty mad.. I am quite interested to see what UK festivals Tyler does, especially out of Lovebox, R&L, Longitude or Wireless... (if any).

I reckon Summer Walker will be there, possibly A$AP Rocky headlining, although he might be too big as he 'headlined' Wireless earlier this year (which didn't happen). Other names that I imagine could be possibilities would be Bryson Tiller, Slowthai, Flume, Mura Masa, Mostack, Mahalia and Burna Boy.

Is Frank Ocean too big for this now as seems to be a contender to headline Coachella?

[SomeoneListeningIn 645]

Just thrown this together p quick but I reckon it could look somewhat like this.

AJ TRACEY, Mura Masa, De La Soul, Megan Thee Stallion, Earthgang, Flohio
NP: Sampha

TYLER THE CREATOR, FKA Twigs, Kano, Denzel Curry, Dominic Fike, Kojey Radical
NP: Caribou

Jorja Smith another possible headliner.

Mura Masa, Twigs, Kano and Caribou all in non-headline slot seems a bit too strong. They could maybe have one but the value is off the scale if they had that lineup. Probably not enough dance music but I could see a few of those acts appearing defo.

I wonder what the teases “big changes” are.

They're switching it to a country music festival next year with a rodeo on Chiswick High Road.

Was hoping for Tyler last year, so also hoping hes making an appearance in 2020

[TGCarr 10]

Guessing this is a change of location? 

[Han-Tyumi 11]

Probably making it a 3 day festival. Honestly don't see the long-term viability of Citadel in it's current state.  

[grayfitz 71]

Citadel is done - Lovebox looks to be going to a 3 day festival.

 

[stanh 62]

3 days confirmed! 

 

[gfa 65]

Looks like they will be sharing tons of artists with Parklife then - interesting for sure.

[TGCarr 10]

Awful decision to go head to head with Parklife.

 

 

But at the same time sharing acts can be kind to both sets of fans going

Both owned by Live Nation so will save money sharing a top tier line up. 

[19liam75 10]

Could see this as a good thing for both fests, people down south who would normally travel to Manchester for Parklife will go to Lovebox instead if the line up shares quite a few acts, Parklife will still sell out.

Because of the time of the year I doubt that many people will travel up from London - not heaps anyway like they would if it was in July/August.

[TGCarr 10]

Hard to say at the moment so I'll put in both.

 

 

Tyler in Europe.

So could either headline Wireless or Lovebox

[iFirework 1]

Looks like an announcement very soon. When do you reckon it will be? Tomorrow maybe?

Also, what's your last minute predictions? I'd say definitely Tyler.

 

[jannybruck 6]

Tyler, maybe Bad Bunny?

Lizzo is probably big enough at this point for a victory lap headline slot too.

Didn't think The Charlatans were a Lovebox type act.
